You should probably do the British a favor and not argue on their behalf.

When it comes to British music vs American music, British obviously dominates. The British also dominate sports, football(soccer), culture, cars(European).

The only thing America wins are the movies. Plus America was made by immigrants anyway such as British(England, Scotland, Wales), Irish, Mexican, French, German, Polish, Spanish, Italian, Eastern European and Indian. Although American schools don't teach them that with it's poor education system were students carry guns also having to pay for medical care. Lol USA = Land of the free were you get spied on by air drones.

Recently America has been leading the way as they cover genres that Britain suck at. As someone mentioned earlier our rap scene is piss poor put next to the US. However being english i keep my eye on the grime scene and its progressing pretty fast. It will be interesting to see how US and UK rap compare in 10 years time, as i said grime is progressing to the point some of its listenable.

This made me laugh hysterically, considering that the only reason anyone gives a shit about the Jimi Hendrix Experience is due to the man the band is named after... who happens to be the American.

Yeah - That doesn't mean I'm wrong.
