what im about to say is gonna upst some people:

NaS sucks. sorry to burst any collective bubbles, or for that matter, make you choke on his dick.
his rhymes are just boring as hell. everything is monotone and uninteresting.

as for those of you who claim "he tells a story", so does Mr. Rogers on weekday mornings.

nas's "metaphors" in his rhymes are long and drawn out in order to confuse the listener into believing they are something requiring skill to write.

fuck nas. i said it.

Sage Francis is the most poetic obviously. I really gotta disagree with anyone saying Vinnie Paz. He is just a really angry homophobic fat dude. Occasionally he says something worthwhile, but it seems like his default setting is shouting how he will chop some faggot's head off.
Also, Fatlip of Pharcyde is sick

Oh and a guy that probably a lot of americans are not familiar with that I respect alot is Akala, reasonably underground over here, biggest songs is probably Shakespeare and it's sick. This is from his song carried away

Another hearse roll up slow,
Carry one more poor lost soul,
Carry them things every single day
Coz it makes him feel safe
Coz he carry on them ways, screw face
Love the game-reppin� his estate,
Talk tough look straight in his face,
Carrying deep pain self-hate,
Carry fam, so he carry weight,
It�s logical daddy got carried away,
Not married away, just didn�t stay
Coward carried his son to this fate,
His boys carrying weight in a wooden box
cant stand straight,
They was getting outta the game,
But look fate she don�t wait
Now the woman in the front row, her face
t show no pain,
But her brain went insane on the day the
news came,
Stare into space, face numb,
The boy getting carried, she carried 9
months

OMG tupac licks soo much balls it's not even funny. Com is great, gotta love Mos Def especially with the Roots, and Talib. But I;d say the best has got to be Aesop Rock. The guy slays everybody. Oh and Biggie kicks tupac's ass any day if not for his lyrics his production was so much better. Pac's shit sounded like it was recorded in a paper bag.

Yes blood, big up to the uk hip-hop. Where you from? are you a fan of drum and bass and breakbeat as well? cause that shit is ill.
also people from the uk that deserve mention
doc brown
klasnekoff
task force
jest
skinnyman
rooty toot manuva (roots manuva)
foreign beggars
Rodney P-one of my favorite lines not necessarily the best...'you've yet to see the best of p, you believe I smoke too much weed it's guaranteed, I'ma twist trees till my eyes dun bleed and I believe sex is good on e but that's me....' on the track 'swords in the dirt' you should check it out.

anyways some good uk shit, not that any of you will listen to it ever but them english people got some skills.
