thinking today about the grime MCs that there was loads of hype and expectation around late last year, but haven't really made it-
fumin
bashy
purple
slk, as a collective
but why? may be the power's shifted back towards E3 a lot more- especially now that Rinse is the only reliable grime pirate-, and also perhaps there's a lack of interest in more 'lyrical' MCs at the moment compared with last year. i always got the impression that people like bashy and purple was coming at things from a more hiphop angle than many grime MCs, with corresponding high word-counts and lyrical complexity. but it seems that it's not really what grime fans want.
hmmm. any thoughts?
