I saw that Crown won it ... did anyone go down? Anything of interest? comments?

just to continue the houston/screwed&chopped theme. it's possible to find screwed&chopped dancehall. anyone seen screwed grime anywhere? I'd love to hear that ...

I'd be interested to hear from people in places other than the US and Canada (and of course UK) if grime has any presence there. I guess there was this recent show in Paris discussed on another thread, and I know that in Japan there is starting to be a scene. Plasticman was there not too long...

listening to Run the Road I was struck by the No Lay track---the drum track really sounds soca. do people know of other stuff with this influence?

Recently there's been a lot of discussion of if grime will break big, and if so, who will be the superstars. People have mentioned Kano, Riko, Bruza ... no one talks about Donae'o though. But to me he seems like a good candidate: he's got a light touch that might go over well outside grime's...

I listen to a lot of grime but when people ask me "what is grime?" I don't quite know how to answer. It's not easy to put into words (for me). But then I have never been good at explaining what "defines" a genre. Anyone else want to make an attempt?

anyone know of places in Philadelphia to pick up mixes: dancehall, reggaeton ... ? I'm going to be up there next month, trying to figure out what can be found. event info would also be appreciated!

Anyone know of good web or other resources on kwaito? if there's a space with downloads it would be extra nice ... thanks!!
