ad libs in early grime

listening to this old fave from 2005 and suddenly struck by the fact that it features ad libs - a running commentary of jeering, taunting, scoffing - growls, gnashings, percussive mouth-noise - the occasional almost decipherable word


questions

A/ is this way in advance of the Americans doing ad libs? Or were there American rappers doing it long before the big wave of Migos, Future Desiigner. et al?

B/ anything else like this in early grime?
