Why they might be annoying:

    He raps with a thick British accent.
    His songs are mostly about playing play station, youth rebellion, drinking, chasing 'birds' and the legalization of marijuana.
    The Streets started off as a three piece garage/rap/house band between friends but once Mike got himself signed to a label he left the rest of the band behind.
    A former member of the original group threatened legal action against Mike for rights to the lyrics to one of The Streets' songs.
    Being a white rapper, he is often compared to Eminem.

Why they might not be annoying:

    His music transcends the typical genres of music.
    He is one of the best rappers to come out of the UK, and his music is revolutionizing the British club scene.
