Ah ah ah! I'm not familiar with the other artists you mentioned, but mr. manuva, although born and raised in south london, had very jamaican parents, and his rapping style is very similar to other jamaican artists. I'm talking about the slow, vowelly, typical "british" accented type of rap. Sure, mr. Manuva certainly qualifies as "a british rapper," but I wouldn't call him "british rap." derek ------- eggytoast.com ------- kills germs on contact --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
