    Dizzee's still released some decent tunes in the last few years, I feel his newer music is underrated.

    I still need to check that new Wiley CD, heard it's dope a.f. Would be good to see the pioneer's running the game again.

    Strange.. that album is like Marmite for a US rap fan..

    It doesn't get better than Kano's classic debut album 'Home Sweet Home', perfect balance of grime with a Hip Hop flavour.

    I dig a couple of Dizzee Rascal songs. Own Evolve or be Extinct double album by Wiley and got myself 3 signed Professor Green albums.

    Classic. Sway used to live round the corner from me. Also, any early Kano is the s---. Home Sweet Home>>>>*
    Don't really listen to grime anymore though.

    I've been so out of touch with UK Hip Hop. It's been a few years since I checked for new music. My problem was (and still is) so many uk artists release random songs, and rarely put out complete projects. (Skepta and JME are the worst for this)

    Any notable releases from the last 3 years that I need to check?
