    I remember a strange pair I actually interviewed back around 2004. One was a junkie and rapped, the other fellah was from Oxford and did a mean beatbox. They had one song that was just brilliant, "towering inferno", about life in the flats. Wonder what became of them. I hope that's not him. :(

    Think he used to perform as the Man and Machine? Was taking photos for a project around temple bar around 2004 and have an idea that's what he was calling himself then. He seems to have cleaned up recently which is good, there's a newer video here (would be better without the other fella in it but hey): http://youtu.be/0sarMri-CqI

    If someone dislikes another person simply because they're from Dublin, those people are fcukwits. Simple.

    To say that no Irish people can rap is a bit silly. It's like saying 50 years ago that we can't play football.

    If you enjoy something that much, then it's only a matter of time (in some cases) before you get very, very good at it.

    As I said, best of luck to them.

    True. Most of you are a very special kind of tosser, each one unique...like snow flakes, or Garth Brooks albums. :D

    I really enjoyed the program the other night, really entertaining. Yeah I did find some of it funny as it's my first experience of Irish rap but after a while I thought they were deadly, doing what they want, with passion and determination..
    ....regardless of their obvious lack of talent, wit or self awareness.

    When the 'rap battle' ended with a sheep shagging slur versus a 'yore Ma' jibe, I laughed my ass off at the dim, juvenile, braggadocio of it all.
    Most of the rap (when it could be understood) sounded like a whiney call to the Joe Duffy show delivered in rhyming couplets.

    Funny this yoke was on about tolerance, respect etc. of other races, religions, creeds in the show and was in the papers last week for violent disorder during the queen's visit.

    She was asked to rap about Finglas... It's clear that she spent a lot of time writing and learning that rap, it wasn't off the cuff and it had nothing to do with Finglas!

    I was unaware of this acapella rap battle scene, so had a look around Youtube...

    Has anyone seen/heard Soul Khan? Wow! The guy is a legend. He just destroys everyone.

    (He not Irish tho :P)

    Well, at least they're not pretending to be black and using ebonics like so many white rappers.

    Now, if we can get them to get to the next stage: not pretending to be from Ireland, I'll be happy.
