Well for the first time the other day I was listening to my radio and a song by some British person called "Lady Soverign", or however you spell it, came on and I really liked her accent.

Are there any other British rappers you guys can name that rap in their natural accents rather than American ones?

Thanks to all who can help.

Most British rappers rap with British accents.

Check out Sway, Akala and Dizzee for my top three.

And although she's not British MIA was raised in London as is making music like you've never heard!

I'm not a huge fan of British rap and it's sub-tangents like grime and the like but there were some good tunes way back :

London Posse-jump around
London Posse-the gangster chronicle
Silver Bullet-bring forth the guillotine
Silver Bullet-20 seconds to comply

..and some good tunes from the past few years :

Rodney P-big t'ings we inna
Rodney P-riddim killa
Dizzee Rascal-i luv u
Dizzee Rascal-fix up look sharp
Dizzee Rascal-off 2 work
Jammer-murkle man
Sway-products remix
Sway-baby father

I'm not too keen on rap music normally but there's a guy called Plan B(Ben Drew) and his music is really good. He plays the guitar too which works really well.
