I thought Garage was Rap? Just goes to show that I don't know those scenes (I don't listen to them), but they seem kinda similar thou.

Back to the topic, American rap will always be the best.
Why?
Look at Jay-Z he sung with Rihanna about a Umbrella I mean come on
Get it real
America has no Mc's what so ever meaning you are all rap
305 represent!
Anyways, aside from listening to obligatory Pitbull, most all the hip-hop and rap I listen to has little to do with bitches, fo-fos, or spinnurz.
The Roots and Blackalicious are my favorite American groups:

The Roots are most known for their amazing live sound and flow. I've seen them before and it was unforgettable, 10+ minute medleys and whatnot.

If you look for any of their stuff I reccomend Rhythm Sticks and Sky is Falling.
Then there's all the great rap that is neither: Orishas(Cuban), Infinite Mass(Sweedish), Hilltop Hoods(Australian), etc
