UK Rap, UK Grime and UK Hip Hop are all completely different sounds and sub-genres under the same art form. While the labelling doesn’t suggest much difference between the three genres at first glance, they all have their own unique rhyme styles, instrumentals, cultures and practices. Generally speaking, UK Hip Hop is heavily influenced by the Golden era/90’s Hip Hop sound, with head-nodding boom-bap, jazz instrumentals and heaving political and conscious lyricism.

For clarity, there are no rap/grime/drill/garage albums included in this list as they’re separate genres in my eyes. Moreover, I’ve decided to include 25 albums by 25 different 25 artists as I want to recommend as many new artists and good music as possible. So, here are 25 essential UK Hip Hop albums in chronological order:
