giggs has lost his touch in his second album his first album was good with tracks like uuumm, test out da nine, but for people from america to say hes shit is bollocks, i listen to all rap from america nas, big l, nwa, ice cube, wu tang, cypress hill, master p and i even listen to the new rappers like kendrick lamar, nipsey hussle so i know good hip hop and i know that giggs aint shit hes just a different style hes got a grime/uk hip hop style and i guaruntee if you listen to some songs on walk in the park album a few times u would notice hes good, and hes realer than fuckin drake, lil wayne, soulja boy, and alot of the shit thats comin out of america these days

Thanks for all your feedback everyone, much appreciated.

From the XXL rating Giggs got, it looks like I chose the right person for the first column.

Until next month…

Welcome to XXL, JP. Great to see UK rap being represented on here. Having said that:

Giggs? Really? You have the entire UK rap pantheon to pick from for your first column – from Jehst to Sway to Rodney P to Skitz to Stig Of The Dump – and you pick…Giggs?

You can do better than that.

Right on brother. These international MC’s need to stop worrying about breaking into the US market. There is no point. They are too close minded to understand. Never mind. The rest of the world knows whats hot.Who gives a shit about America. They promote garbage like Solja Boy anyway. Lol.

Sorry homie but unless ur from the US or close to it nobody gon give a fuck about your artists. I’m from NZ and we got crazy artist but that don’t mean they gonna get some shine. We got a artist named Scribe whos been on tracks with Talib & Lupe and held his own but unless he got a US accent nobody cares

believe me,,,not e’re one who give constructive criticism is a hater,,,,don’t worry bout the words of critics,,,be wary of the silence of ur friends,,,,yes the friends that tell u all is well,,,the yes men n yes women,,,they’ll lead u wrong then tell u,,,oh i did not want to hurt ur feelings lol,,,
if giggs is wat u.k hiphop is all about,,then all ya’ll need to go back to the drawing board asap,,,first off that jamaican/english slang aint cutting it,,,if dipset or d-block can’t sell 500000 copies doing gangsta music,,,ya’ll actually believe giggs gonna do 200000 copies lol,,,now this yeah aint hater talk,,,this is real talk from a hiphop head,,canibus is my fav rapper so u should know that i know bout lyrics n wordplay,,,,Booba from france is cutting it better than giggs and he aint spit in english lol,,,listen to wayne,,drake,,eminem,,jay z,,,kanye,,,bun b,,,fabolous,,,vado of dipset and tell me if giggs is ready,,,,i believe the u.k has the talent but like e’re ting else,,the real talent never shines,,,the u.k artist try to hard to be hard,,,and it passes as being fake,,,all that gangster shit not gonna get u in the u.s market,,,remember dat shit,,,the beats aint banging yet,,i understand its a different culture n all but would u sell oil to iraq or saudi lol,,nah u won’t u’d sell them agricultural produce cuz they need that,,,,so the u.s needs banging ass beats with smart wordplay,,,,its a new market across the pond n it aint easy breaking in,,,,ya’ll need to rap over more u.s hiphop beats to get more acquainted!!! like i said much luck to Giggs but he aint ready yet believe that

Anyone from the U.K will tell you that U.K hip hop starts and ends with Akala! U.Ks lupe, very intelligent with lyracal skills, no time for bullshitters.
