    I know Ri-Ra would use the odd word here and there and Collie uses full sentences but besides The Rubberbandits Irish version of I want to fight your father in Irish can't think of any others rn.

    GMC and Bubba Shakespeare are the only two I can think of off the top of my head!

    Bubba Shakespeare does quite a lot of it. That duo from Kerry (one of them was south american?) did it in the late 2000's but I can't remember their name for them life of me.

    However the best Irish rapping I've heard thus far is on the new This Side Up album from a lad called MC Muipéad. He's on the third verse.

    Here's some more from him.

    There's a new fella Oisín Mac Ghiolla Bhríde. Not sure about his style personally, but fair play to him for giving it a good go. Apologies for link, I'm under the post requirement just take the full stop off the end if you wanna listen to this guy.
