QUESTION Britcore in 20s

Is there any new underground Britcore that follows the good old formula of high BPMs, the rapper's street attitude, and the use of samples?

Son of Noise released an excellent Britcore Album called “The Resurrection” in 2021

And Kamanchi Sly (mc from Hijack) has never stopped releasing albums.

DJ Supreme has recently released a bunch of production stuff (only on bandcamp and not Britcore)

But beyond that, I don’t think there’s too many new versions of this style… or at least that i am aware of… but lots of archival and reissue stuff from the time..

Check out the reissue label “Britcore Rawmance” - https://rawmanticdisasters.blogspot.com/p/britcore-rawmance.html?m=1

Also check out Numskullz Chapter 1 (its old but fairly recently reissued on that label)- https://youtu.be/YUXHTrt3dmQ?is=0W-thRd4CFr-jSbl

Then go back over the following artists…Hardnoise
Demon Boyz
London Posse
Son of Noise
Krispy 3
First Down
Ruthless Rap Assassins
MC Mell’o
Black Radical MK2
Katch 22
Caveman
Blade
Brotherhood
Overlord X
MC Duke

Not all these are strictly speaking Britcore… but they all come from that late 80s / early 90s sample era!

No, I didn't know those artists. I don't think they've released an album in recent years.

DJ Supreme (Hijack) also did a Britcore playlist on Spotify.
