As far as British Rap/Hip-Hop goes there is only one artist: Roots Manuva. Run come save me and Awfully Deep are excellent albums.
Roots Manuva's definitely put a UK spin on things.

I hate this world so much I'm shitting out love.
I'm healthy,
I'm workin' out at the pub.

I can't say anything about mainstream UK Rap/Hip-Hop as I think it's mostly utter crap.
