Does anybody knows how many white labels the Eski-boy released to this day ? Is there someone, somewhere collecting, working on a grime discography yet ?

Logan would be best placed to answer this! To be honest I no longer know how many Wiley whites I have - labelling is always so obscure, and folk tell you things aren't really what you thought they were, etc etc...

Also:
Penguin (this seems to be based on a tv series called Pengu)
Frostbite
Polar Bear
Snowman

Hope this is correct. I have them as mp3s.

Thanks everybody! Hope we'll have someday some kind of gathering , Wiley's Eski-Box ? Must copyright this ;)
Does the man has wishes/plans to make it happen ?
Logan got right as I was wondering if there was some fake/parody white in the whole (who did ?)

Essential Direct, the distributors, have a decent collection of Wiley tunes that they've carried over the years
still listed in the catalogue. Far from complete, but it's a good way to get catalogue numbers for anyone looking to compile a discography.

Oh! and also:

Freeze
Colder
Colder Bass
Eski Boy
Cuts and Paces (4th track on Firefly 12")
Tunnel Vision (4th track on Jam Pie 12")
Merkle (3rd track on Jam Pie simgle)
Bastard (3rd track on the Fire Hydrant / Poltergeist Relay 12")

Snow Kat (?)
Bang Bang (?)

Not sure about the titles or authorship of the last two, just mp3s that really sound like Wiley.

So Wiley said he didn't do Polar Bear and Penguin, or something?

Logan Sama said:
Polar Bear and Penguin are not Wiley tunes.

And the beat for Bastard wasn't made by Wiley either.

Surely I am not the only one who loves the brevity and teasing nature of Logan's responses? Surely knowing who it is who did them, but simply answering the question!

My thought exactly. Note also how Logan's writing ingeniously reflects the ice cold eski sensibility.
