being british, is it possible to rap with an american accent? as how we can rap with an english accent if we would wish kind of mockery ? weird question I know, but I just can't get into the accent.. and I'm like 50/50 irish and scottish so I'm as english as it gets but I just can't get into the accent being from america.

Bro they're completely different countries with completely different accents lol.

Yeah it is, a few people do rap in American accents like Unanymous, and Olde English used to aswell but it's cringey for us. It's and English league for English MCs and an English crowd so they shouldn't have to change their accent for American fans haha.

Though I can imagine that Americans must find it weird at first because to you we all sound posh me traditionally English because its so different, but when you're actually from England or listen to a lot of English rap (Muderous Swag, Black Moses) then you realise there's different accents and that they aren't actually posh. There's a lot of hood accents in Dont Flop, Olde English is a bad example of that through cuz he doesn't have much of an accent. But look at Shotty Horroh and Tony D, Sniper E, Pedro, Dekay etc
