Never gets air in Grime raves

It's a redundant statement, baby boy. No homo. AY! I quite like Griminal's name. He said a Criminal is someone who does Crime, so he is a Griminal.

American rap has equally if not even more hilarious names and slang. Don't be so ignorant.

I WHOLEHEARTEDLY recommend this if you don't have it yet... Durrty Goodz - Axiom EP http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewArtist?id=259459030

Major label Grime is creatively bankrupt. I was watching an incredibly interesting documentary tonight on BBC about the british Soul scene. And listening to the stories of 40 and 50 year old mean talking about the british music industry, it was amazing that it is still so identical today. The...

Stupid breakdowns and the race to fit in as many fucking drums as possible into the drop killed Drum N Bass. Well, turning away from Jungle and trying to make Drum N Bass instead killed it. But Pendulum put the final nail in the coffin with their grooveless noise.

Nah. Crunch is going to be a bonus disc with 4 or 5

Some of them are, some aren't. Some have those 16 hi hats and oh so predictable Southern drum rolls. Those are Hip Hop. Some are different enough from the Hip Hop that inspires it to be Grime.

Thankfully there is a buffer between London and the rest of the country to save us from Bassline House. It is the Essex Greenbelt of Drum n Bass pillhead ravers. I am most grateful for them.

What did you think about the Damon Albarn "appearance"? I think this is something which needs to be addressed seriously. Did Albarn produce the track? Because it is a lose/lose situation artistically. If Damon made the beat then they got robbed because the beat is uninspired tosh and anyone...

lol! I opened the page in a new tab and dint bother looking at it as I was finishing reading. Then the song played. And I heard the "URRRRRRNNNNNGGGGGGGHHHH" and I though....no....that can't be Sniper E! And lo and behold it was. Least he doesnt ever stop trying.

I think a problem with Kano spitting on slower beats in that so-laid-back-it's-horizontal style is that he can tend to end up sounding unengaging and drowsy. And when he attempts to change it up on the slower beats it almost comes across as sounding over aggressive. I think vocally the faster...

Telling someone they don;t know much about Grime is an insult these days? I didn;t realise knowledge of Grime was a pre-requisite to being a good person. You however I will insult. Because you are a cock. If you can't actually discuss the topic but are willing to put the effort into looking up...

Sometimes. Often he slips lazily into spitting like Jay Z. On a whole I would call Kano a Grime artist. The way he spits is usually in the Grime style. I would call Kano a Grime artist even though he very, very rarely vocals Grime tracks. The way he MCs is clearly predominantly influenced by the...

Taking a record. Sampling it. Looping it up. Re-editing the break. Generally altering it in some way to fit your needs. These are all things which create new genres. Simply taking The Mexican, or Lyn Collins, or Apache and mcing right the way over the whole track without altering it in any way...

Shabba, Dett, Stevie Hyper D and a few other bait rave guys. And for the darker style..... Eksman, Bassman, Trigger, Spyder.

Grime is a genre of music which has certain sonic characteristics. It also produces MCs who have certain characteristics in the way they spit. You all know what an atypical Grime beat sounds like. Just because a Grime artist vocals a piece of music, or a DJ plays a piece of music in a set...

Someone who has never heard the word Grime being used as a name for a Genre, let alone heard Grime music in their life... for example the average listener of Hot 97, would not recognise Grime when they hear it because they are ignorant to it's existence. Ignorant is not an insult. Artists for...

You can fit other music into a Grime set and it not be out of place. I have done this for years. It does not make those other tracks Grime tracks though. Grime is not anything you can play in a set. Grime is an actual genre of music. You can play genres next to each other and they not sound out...
