The problem most Aberdeen rappers have is they talk about 'the game' and 'hustling' as if they live in compton as opposed to shedocksley. There may be a modicum of talent in there but the insincerity of appropriating hip hop culture instead of taking elements of the genre and doing your own thing prevails, making for pretty dire stuff. Not all rappers of course but the majority. Most on that list were a 20 seconds and done job I'm afraid. I actually agree with alot youve said... you can probably tell im MXC, any feedback? even if its a snippet of something be as brutally honest as possible and im interested to hear everyones views on the other rappers! A few of those lads have just started and theres alot of good rappers in aberdeen that aint yet made a soundcloud or fired tracks up online - when they do ill post links for you guys. Then again even i probably only know a quarter of the rappers in aberdeen, still some too be found haha.

There is a 'RAP OPEN MIC' happening on the 26th APRIL DOWNSTAIRS so check it out if you get a chance, Also SHMU FM have kick started some workshops and event nights for local rappers, producers etc. Fair few bodies starting to get into it so heres hoping it builds a fanbase locally.

I was made too believe MC MAD MIKEY was the scene saviour... I mean he is a pimp who pays for his parking! haha - Well theres a fair few you can listen too online ill get the links for you and you can have a scan if you wish bro. Any of you guys perform or play any music?

CHEENS, iv only ever heard a couple of tracks by him - not gonna lie hes pretty decent. SHY and DRS are sound guys, doing really well for themselves recently signed to Universal Records. EZEKIEL... sadly iv never heard of him, will need too look into it asap.

Whats good everyone, recently there has been an increase in rappers/emcees in the Aberdeen area but still only scratching the surface too reaching the public domain, so I wanted to get some feedback and thoughts on any rappers you think have potential or generally have caught your attention this year? If you are an artist feel free to post your links and details below! This is a discussion on Who are the best and worst rappers, what you think we could do to improve the scene and swapping ideas or hooking up for collaborations + projects. Please try and keep it civil and not resort too being negative! I say try but cant guarantee it can I... lets go!
