The Streets is a British rapper named Mike Skinner. He got his breakthrough on the album Original Pirate Material released in 2002. The style of rap called UK Garage sounds very different from American rap. Garage usually has a techno beat with slower rapping that sounds more like talking. the lyrics range from drugs and the club scene to the struggles of daily life.
