Scorzayzee was and possibly still is the best. I hear he has some new stuff in the pipeline (this i will not hold my breath for)

*edit
Just found he has a new track on youtube, a follow up to 'Great Britain' apparently. Unfortunately i can't hear it as im in Bangkok and the PC has no speakers/headphones

'jesht one of the best a true scribe'

he is good . i probably rate roots manuva the most despite how the new one's sounding.

skinnyman's working on a new release due for winter aswell.

not forgetting life mc. definately one of the best.

Braintax kills it to.

Jehst is a don.

Generally any lowlife mans dont fuck about.

For me Rodney P kills it everytime, plus you can't forget about TY and Blak Twang.

What about the original storyteller himself Slick Rick! Surprised you didn't mention him shook1!

Good god, that is some of the worst MCing I have ever heard, for both delivery and lyrical content.

I'm tied with Orifice, Skinnyman and Jehst tbh.
Braintax being a close 2nd.

They're all great, equally favored in my books.

Don't think Scorzayzee has enough of a back catalogue to "probably" be the best. Guys only got a handful of tunes and although i like Great Britain, it's overated by many people (people from Notts

) and that new tune is shite.

I love Lewis Parker but i think as an artist he falls into the catagory for "stick to the MPC". His lyrics are pretty shit, always have been, but especially now he has adopted an atlantic drawl, but his beats have only got better.

Personally, Jehst is the best. Don't think anyone can touch him for lyrics, flow or live performances. Return of the Drifter era he was untouchable, shame he is making such average music these days, seems to be half heartedly selling out.

sway is definitely up there for his delivery, dunno where the fook he's gone these days though

I have no affiliation wiv notts apart from it's green groceries. However CAPPO is one of the best uk mc's.
Ramson Badbonez is killa but no 1 can touch PITMAN.

lewis parkers masquerades and silhouettes album is bliss

Back catalogue wise yes i agree. However as a live MC freestyler he was unstoppable. Ive seen him rip sooooo many people to shreds on stage. Jehst on the other hand aint really all that on the freestyle front. He was booked to play in Notts once but his DJ didn't turn up with his tunes. So instead of running with the perfectly good in house DJ he dropped a couple of verses and bailed out. A really good MC would have just spat lyrics and entertained the crowd.
