Welcome to UK Rap List, where elite MCs represent the essence of UK rap culture. For decades, the diversity and breathless energy of Britain’s rappers has helped to present alternative and authentic images of the UK—flowing from deep, expansive rhyme, energising battle cries and gritty street narratives. With each DIY turn, we’ve witnessed the rise of new movements and distinctly British styles that have now conquered the globe. From drill to Afroswing and trap, here’s your all-access pass to the very best in homegrown 🔥. We regularly update these tracks, so if you hear something you like, add it to your library.
