  • Here at Complex, we wanted to acknowledge and honour the achievements of UK rappers this past year by compiling a list of the 10 best!
    To help us with this difficult task, we brought in some top industry experts and insiders, including Complex UK’s Editor-In-Chief, Joseph ‘JP’ Patterson, super-producer M1OnTheBeat, Capital Xtra’s Robert Bruce, Block Report’s Flashy Sillah, and music critic Mimi The Music Blogger.
    Each of our panelists had to submit their own individual top 10 lists, based on the following criteria: Buzz / Impact & Influence / Body Of Work / Mainstream Radar / Rapping Ability / Other Achievements. Each list was then scored using a point system, and the rappers with the most points-the names that appeared most frequently and ranked the highest-would then enter the final 10.
    Watch the video above as we debate and rank the rappers from 10-1 until we crown Complex UK’s Best Rapper Of 2022!

    Interesting that Loyle was not once in the conversation. Toured a sold out Europe. Sold out tour for 2023. Massive album which did numbers. And one of the best bodies of work this year

    It’s mad interesting seeing M1 be so indifferent about Knucks when he produced on the project they’re even ranking lol

    We need to put more respect on Lil Simz una her impact on the scene been one of the hardest in terms of production and actual bars. Cench/Trapo for me killed it this year.

    Yoooo. As an American, I put Little Simz as Number One. She’s one of the only artists I knew from this list. We also know about Central Cee. Those two are the only ones with recognition in the USA. BUT YEAH LITTLE SIMZ #1

    These things are bias to “street” rappers. After watching the whole thing it confirms it. With little simz, and kojey radical being on so low and the exclusion of rappers like loyle carner and lancey foux. Who had a wayyy better year than some of the people on that list.

  • @yodabe882
    @yodabe882 Год назад +16

    How you gonna by trying to put Simz at 10. She’s one of the best British rappers of all time period.
    How many of these other cats are gonna be about in 5 years? Simz aint going nowhere, she already a part of the history.

    The simz argument. Was stressing me. Her musicality is unmatched. Kendrick dropped her name as the best out the Uk. Jay z dropped her name as the best out the Uk. Not even that. I’m guessing this was filmed before simz dropped her album because that had to make her top 3

    • @barry4649
      @barry4649 Год назад

      Where did Jay and Kendrick say that, I want to hear them talk about her, Jay also said Kano was one of the best rappers worldwide back in the day

    This is why you can't take these lists seriously. The criteria being used and people's biases towards crud. Trying to put Little Simz at number 10 is the wildest thing ever.
