#UKBreakbeatHistory

Hail up #LondonPosse!

The first UK Hip Hop group to rap in their own accents. Until then groups had mimicked American artists but LP used Jamaican DJ styles combined with Cockney geezer personas and the new style was born.

Although must shout out Smiley Culture for the true Cockney Rasta style a few years earlier but that was much more on the Reggae tip.

#GangsterChronicals still holds up today.
