I don't expect people outside of the UK to know him. I don't expect anyone outside of the UK Hip Hop scene to know him too. But...

Akala is a UK rapper. A rapper that believes what the mainstream industry supports is wrong for the listeners of all ages and generally doesnt think its acceptable to have children these days grow up around this sort of stuff. His lyrics will touch on the government, racism, prejudices, society, wars/civil wars.

He really is intelligent, hes a big fan of poetry, he has the nickname "Black Shakespeare". For me he has produced the album of the year so far in 2010. He has his stance of being himself for the people and isnt willing to follow a crowd to hit that BIG paycheck.

I really hope people, can give this a listen to, even if your not a fan of hip hop, just listen to the lyrics. I think it would be cool to use a live version of this song...

Find No Enemy off his latest album Doublethink:

 
Funny enough I thought about buying his latest album today in HMV but cos of my limited money at the moment I thought it best not to right now. I've only heard a few songs of his but liked them :)
 
Heard of him for ages now ever since I used to watch Channel U on sky before we got rid of it :mello:
