Prove me wrong.
Can't be bothered. The only thing I can agree with you on is UK Garage being influenced by Chicago house music. I don't know about drill so I take your word for it.

As for Jamaican ragga dancehall, soundclash culture which is the basis for UK rappers being influenced by US. Nah. Maybe in the early days of ska. But from the 70s til now, Nah.

Soundclash and Ragga Dancehall culture updates every time US culture updates. Koffee's biggest songs are trap influenced. Remember when Afrobeats was just "african dancehall sounding" music? As soon as those 808s and different engineering techniques hit, it went "global global" and not just due to the diaspora. It started sounding better.
This came out in 2012.

Grime?

This is where the idea of "dancehall" came from

The influence continued from the 1930s until NOW.
"Road rap" = Trap music/New York street rap combo with localized flavoring.

Like I said, brehs just want to think no other country can make music except the US. Pointless debating.
They're making a UK version of US music, and nobody thinks "no other country" can make music, but England/Caribbean sure take a lot of influence from AFRICAN AMERICAN music (just like white americans) and try to flip it around.
The Herc myth has already been destroyed and reversed.
We already know Coxsone Dodd was biting slang.
We already know the "British Explosion" was the beatles selling repackaged black american music back to white americans.
We know "ska" and "rocksteady" are localized jamaican versions of rock and r&b.
So yes, we know that people in England and Jamaica were REMAKING MUSIC for their local tastes and they continue to do so.
There are far less ADOS "reggae" or "afrobeats" artists.
2 little islands, big influence? Or copycats moving from one area to another, continually localizing what they copy over 4 generations?
