Not too much of a fan of grime myself, although UK music is a big part of my life.
I think you should listen to Dizzie Rascal's first album "Boy in da corner".... if you don't like that then yeah just give up on Grime. It's one of those music generes that you'd have to grow up on, or grow up on it's predecessors to appreciate it. It's an "acquired" taste to say the least.

This retard talking about grime copying Chicago. :comeon:

Not have the slightest fukking clue what you are talking about brehs.

modern UK grime is clearly chicago drill and or memphis-atl trap influenced. OG grime was basically american rap + jamaican dancehall w/ beats that weren't all that different from alot of southern american hiphop/R&b that deviated from traditional NYC sampled based hiphop.

So reggae "toasters" weren't 100% influenced by the AFRICAN AMERICAN RADIO DJS AND BIG BANDS THAT TRAVELED...correct?
You're saying it evolved on its own with none of our influence?
I bet you think Kool Her invented Hip hop, too. Nope. Nothing close and there was ZERO Jamaican influence on early hip hop.
Reggae, however, has Afram Dna all in it.
Let's begin.
The Maytals were a Ska Group.
Ska is: SOME Jamaican mento (really trini)
mixed with A LOT of AFRICAN AMERICAN JAZZ + RHYTHM AND BLUES.
Genres that predate both reggae, ska, and rocksteady by 20-50 years...LITTLE nikka!
Toots Hibbert, blending that AFRAM BLUES and eventually slowing the fast paced ska down because Afram 50s rock transitioned into 60s soul. Y'all studied and adjust your collective bpm because black folks in America SAID SO, culturally.
Garage?
Originated by AN AMERICAN DJ NAMED TODD EDWARDS, YOU LITTLE INGRATE!
TODD THE GOD.
THEN nikkaS DECIDED TO RAP. THEY CALLED THEMSELVES MC'S. HMMM I WONDER WHERE THAT TITLE CAME FROM?
THE USA. MASTER OF CEREMONIES, nikkaS RAP NAMES HAD MC IN THE FRONT....FOR YEARS, LIL nikka!
Two step? Lol you better listen to the Basement demo with early timbaland, there's your lil hoe ass genre's daddy.
Rapping over sped up timbo and breaks... ooh you so INNOVATIVE.
:camby:


Offshoot ass nikka
