I love 'sweet mother' big tune - I kinda love how informal it sounds while skets attempting to sing over the chorus. ok it's a bit of played out subject matter (rappers/thugs and their dearest moms) but some funny lines. On the Wiley album - which is another patchy (want to like oit more)...

The new Duurty Goodz stuff sounds incredible judging from what Logan played on Monday. Loving that Smasher tune too

I'd echo Zidane - though you need to see it in the cinema Red Road I saw on DVD recently - and its excellent. This is England is poor

Ah, speed garage has a new name

well looks like I'm the exception, but I suppose this aspect of music is my pet hate. I've always dreaded those converstaions with fellow rekid collectors about everything but the music...what things are worth, boring trivia, nostalgia, rarities, shops zzzzzzz. makes me think I may as well be...

Not my favourite to be honest - I find the whole record collecting paraphernalia thing a bit cringe-worthy tbh - how they are shelved, ordered, bought lalala...it's all a bit antiques roadshow to me (and I have 5000 of the buggers)....keep it focused on the music matt!

Yes love the. Kinda knew he was onto something special, when I saw him at this gig at the Spitz quite a while back. Love the voice and its use and the out-of-sync mixing between joined up songs on the big composite tracks

...you'll be getting yourself a great slice of grime right there

I think the Metropolitan Police is a broader church these days John ;)

Staying annonymous is 'crippling' says Banksy (he's just aching to get on Jonathon Ross)

Vainonymity: the process of deliberately obscuring your image to curry more fanboy curiousity in you

Haven't we done this one to death now? Maybe, rather than talking about the lack of limelight on grime we should impose a 2 year media/internet embargo on all grime/London street music and come back to see what's there in 2009

Yes - wear a Boy Better Know t-shirt on a bus or tube in London and you'll know. I had bare 12 yr olds hollaring at me on my way to Shepherd's Bush on Saturday

I think it's fair to say that Wiley was calling it 'eski' before the 'grime' tag stuck. In fact the naming was so belated (2004?) you'd forgive alot of it's protaganists for not having any ownership of it. I get the feeling we'll have a new name before long but it will still be describing...

yeah I'd think I'd be in the Skepta camp if pushed, but my g/f (who's not a grime fan by any stretch) really likes JME

It's a bit like the JME vrs Skepta debates I've been in a few times...Skepta tends to be more of a favourite with grime ultras, while JME seems to cut it more for crossover fans. People seem to forget that your average joe doen't understand 90% of grime mcing, and JME's mcing is very clear, he...

Good q. Apparently I was mega-obsessed with a portable toy radio given to me when I was two - I wouldn't let go of it. Though I really didn't get into my own personal music until I was 14.

Dirty Canvas is back on Saturday 5th May 2007, with mcs Nasty Jack, Bashy, 3 Face and Griminal. A superstar grime DJ clash between Cameo, Logan and Magic. The whole thing is to celebrate the launch of Nasty Jack's 'pimp on flows' mixtape - and cos we've brought in the several of the scene's...
