What genre best describes Dan le Sac Vs Scroobius Pip?

[Corax]

Quick question, as in the title.

"British hip hop" doesn't seem sufficient. I mean, I like Foreign Beggars and Skinnyman as well, but they're sweet fuck all similar to Scroobs'n'Dan...

 

[Thimble Queen]

Shit

Shit

Fuck you and the horse you rode in on.

Give me a link. I quite like Scroobius pip. Although his podcast is far too much waffle and adverts.

These are perhaps their best known.

He's okay, often see him down at Millwall.

It's Spoken Word. Poetry with accompaniment.

 

[ShiftyBagLady]

Hipster hop?

Yes I have heard that one. I quite like it. YouTube is fucking out on my phone have you heard his podcast what do you think?

Too much wrestling talk but he seems like a decent guy.

 

[xenon]

I miss dubversion . So he could tellers all wrong. With a piss taking smile.

 

[SpookyFrank]

It's spoken word, not hip-hop. In hip-hop the lyrics are performed in a way that bears some relation to the musical backing and with some sort of cadence and structure.

And christ I'd forgotten how much I hated Scroobius Pip.

Fuck wrestling. I like MMA, but that professional stage-fighting crap is pure crappery.

Only just learned about his xfm gig. Meaning to give it a try.

tbf, much as I find his stuff a bit irritating, I don't think "vacuous stoner waffle" is a very apt description at all....

Lyrical genius, a good egg, a music video pioneer, our social conscience and a beardy sex pot. That just about covers it.

I listened to a bit of one of the YouTubes, and would have called that pop.

I didn’t listen for long enough to hear the words, though, or to want to listen to any more.

I also don’t listen to pop, so I’m arguably out of my depth here.

HTH HAND.

 

[Wookey]

I also don’t listen to pop, so I’m arguably out of my depth here.

I'm not sure it is all that arguable, actually.

Pop is short for popular. Pip ain't pop.

(And there's a t-shirt slogan for you.)

Where stand you on the Sleaford Mods? Pop? Not pop?

Yeah it's pop music to me and all.

I think trying to type with your knob end isn't working for you.

 

[rutabowa]

In a fairly broad way I'd call both scroobius pip and sleaford mods pop music.... like if top of the pops were still going in its 80s format they could both conceivably have appeared on it. It's not the most useful description regarding how something sounds goes, though

He doesn't come across very well in his podcasts

Hip-hop. It's words over a beat. I always liked this one:
