2011 UK Rap Up

Back again for the third time round
Yea theres a lot of madness happening in the world right now
But em for all those out there who are forgetting
Heres the UK rap up for 2011

For real the years are passing too quick
Its bad enough we had to start this hearing the Heartless Crew split
The economies heading a place it ain’t supposed to go
Shame we can't blame it all on David Hayes broken toe
But while the banks carried on skunking their mislead clients
Jodie Marsh did the fatima whitbread diet
The media exposed all the dumb things people had to say
I think it started off with Richard Keys and Andy Gray
That MTV list truly got us baffled
Enough that even Ghetts was asking who’s on the panel
The M.E.T was disappointed for the same old reasons
Had us all campaigning for K Koke’s freedom
The Police system really tryna head to the pits
So I can fully relate when Smiler said he was sick
But before we go further let me do this like i’m supposed to
R.I.P Smiley Culture
For real the year saw a mass amount of scandals
And a whole bunch of crimes not even Rastamouse could handle
Lord Taylor went to jail cos he stashed loads of cheques
And Dappy we get the picture now you have no regrets
Oh and OG Niki if rap don’t get you famous
Skeptas got some strong links in adult entertainment
The decision was made easily
To hand this year un-beweavable award out to Misha B
So let that occupy your St Paul's to keep the peace
And ease the grief form you and Kelly’s Tulisa beef
Well everyones hearts warming to Little Mix
Were so Stereotypical no Rizzle Kicks
The hate for Cher Lloyds too heavy for the scale
But she put on more unsigned rappers than anybody else
Maybe the scene would actually back her
If she could at least give us the true meaning of Swagger Jagger
Prince William and Kate tied the knot
And Cheryl Cole's run in USA kinda flopped
Big brother came back a show that made an effort
But everybody else felt The Only Ways Is Essex
Salut Jamal Edwards a pro at work
First he hit us with that crazy Google Chrome advert
Then to confirmed hows he’s paved the way for the whole scene to grow
Channel 4 went and gave him his own TV show
While everyone was catching jokes off Phone Shop
The UK battle scene is broke cos the dough flopped
Ps3 showed how backwards they hustle
While Lowkey did us proud with the Soundtrack to the Struggle
Shouts to Maverick Sabre he jumped on a major
Bigz said he just wants the paper
My Tram Experience weren’t a nice way to travel
That woman should dealt with like the Grime Daily channel
And Wretch did more than satisfy his appetite
He rolled through like a Tractor and you can see that in Black and White
And thought the internet kinda said he was troublesome
Shout to Example for finally getting a number one
Sway still speeding and without a doubt the whole year was great for Ed Sheeran
And when you thought the scene could never go this far
JME drops the Boy Better Know sim card
We said farewell to News of the World
Because of News Internationals abuse of the world
Hearing lies that never hit the news
And like Krept and Konan had us questioning their views
See political next levels of race still double high
Police bribery phone hacking to Russian spies
Its no wonder everything so wild
When were seeing more corruption than a Windows File
And so people protest with hopes the world starts to listen
Then the country ends in one big Dale Farm eviction
But the powers that prefer to keep you quiet
Found out that when protests ain’t heard they can turn into a riot
They claim mindless thugs organised all the crimes
But how can somebody mindless be organised
There blaming kids for the word spreading
But really who can spread new more speedier than the media
The TV screen had us all gazing at it
The UK seeing at least 4 days of madness
We saw youts getting too restless on their school holidays
But the government shut down all the youth centres
An opportunist doing nothing good
All Attack The Blocks tryna be Top Boy in Annuva Hood
Looting and robbing for every innocent victim sake
We need to get to the root of the problem
Still Carnival was great
The riots had us scared to look our biggest street party in its face
England won the Ashes from Australia for once
And Charlie Sloth made it on Radio One
January saw a bunch of earthquakes
I'm not sure how many we had since
But I'll probably blame the biggest one on Labrinth
Now the futures looking bright as ever
On that note salut goes to Jessie J and Tinie Tempah
For both smashing the states with their sales
But awards for that's gotta go straight to Adele
Doing great for herself and the whole world can see
Glad you made it through that throat surgery
Yea we learnt that British Gas fees are what we truly got to bring down
Oh yea and Wayne Rooney’s got a fringe now
Scott Brown was making us laugh
And MOBO’S got taken over by KG and Marsden
David Starky dissed my ancestors
Plus theres a rumour that John Terry and Suarez might be racists
What the Fifa dude said wasn’t smart
And he should be begging more pardons than Jeremy Clarkson
Rest In Peace Steve jobs he left nations looking silly
IPhones are having proper conversations with their Siri’s
We lost so many so let me take this time out
To say R.I.P Amy Winehouse
Gary Speed, Gary Mason, Ken Russel
Mark Duggan condolences to those who love you
When death wants war we rarely ever win the battle
On that note rest in peace to the legend Jimmy Saville
The year was sad at times
Don’t believe me ask man United and City who are both Heading to Channel 5
The coalition backed out of many handouts
Kids lost sight during the Blackberry Blackout
The moped robberies caused major concerns
Shout to Lord of the Mic’s they made a return
Ghostpoet blessed us with poems
And everybody thought Jess was a postman
Mic Righteous and English Frank have seen attention
Dot rotten and Benny Banks need a mention
For signing on the dotted line we got to give them that
And shouts to Emeli Sande for putting Scotland on the map
Shouts to our producers and the bangers they did
Salut to both Beat Butcha and Alex da Kid
Respect to all the real talent coming through
That ain’t playing games kinda like Tevez when he’s a substitute
Making sure that hard work ain’t going unnoticed
All trying to achieve the Ultimate Otis
Wether or not you grow to become respected
Heres hoping you get further than Mo from the Young Apprentice
And if you hear me let try and live this next year like its our last
No Mayan Calendar Theory
And anyone I forgot send a shout to yourselves
Welcome to 2012
