what u mean?

your reply and recommendations were super generic...i was getting at you, but im half playing, but still, you gave him a very bland answer when there are 100's of better examples on where to start off

outside of boy in da corner, sets/bootlegs/war dubs were the best thing about grime and its rappers

should've just posted a crazy titch/flippy smallz set and called it a day

or rinse fm sets from back in the day

what about the YMS series...or even fucc radio sets



younga and crazy sending for EVERYONE in the scene



you didn't even mention the GOAT grime mc (this is fact) D DOUBLE E

this is one of the best examples i've seen someone try to make a video that caught in essence what grime is....a bunch of angry teenagers making fucced up music...basically, back in the day, beign a grime mc meant you was either a nutter, a character or both

nah thats long, just gave him albums/mixtapes to find his way

radio is long, you posted a boys in da hood set, why not slimzee, mack 10 etc etc?

you see what im saying?

i can go on for long but im guessing LA fisher wanted to hear more of the studio stuff rather than radio sets, thats why i posted what i posted

fair enough, but if someone asks me to skool them on grime, im gonna give him the best version of it, which is sets....easily. there were about 5 truly great grime albums dver made...there are easily 40-50 sets that are truly great


and i posted flippy smallz sets over slimzee and mak 10 sets because flippys sets were the best...have you ever listened to one of his sets? lol...see, generic choices again. i would post a lady b-line/flirta d set before a slimzee set


and there is no bloodclarrt way in hell he would find sets through listening to albums/mixtapes...theyre opposite sides of the coin


where's your slew dem video?


look sorry man if it sounds like im trying to be a dicc to you but this kinda sh1t gets me passionate (pause) cos grime never gets its due when grime 01-06 was better hip hop has been since 98-now

cause theirs more mack 10 and slimzee sets around, and i have yes, not sure how you can say slilmzee and mack are generic choices, and where is op going to get more than 1 or 2 lady b line sets? slimzee and mack 10 are still around today so he wanted to hear something new, he can

and not everyone gets radio sets, op asked for best work, best work to me aint a 16 bar

and yes you can work your way through albums to sets, if he really wants to find more of the person he has taken interest to, youtube will show him, you see he mentioned scorcher? now he can work hes way through everything scorcher had been involved in, all LA has to do is type "scorcher grime" and loads of stuff will pop up

and what slew dem video

slimzee and mack 10 are generic choices, what're talking about?...thats like saying dizzee and wiley arent generic choices when talking about mcs. there are more than 2 lady b sets floating about smh. who cares if slimzee and mack 10 are still about, he wants to find out about the genre, not who he can down dalston or brick lane and still watch a live set from


and how can you tell me, sets aren't the best work grime produced...do you even get grime? grime was never built to be album music...hence why there were only a few truly great albums.

and as for slew dem...non stop working /that point

why're trying to baby people talking about "some people dont get sets"...dont listen to grime then, cos sets are a huge part of it...go pick up some some waste uk hip hop

lol bruv u can discover other people listening to wiley, no?

radio sets are normal, a few radio bars are not work, i never said anything bad about sets, i said 16 bars, sonny jim.

and if you really want to know im more of an album guy myself when it comes to everything thats why i posted names of them, you know some people just like listening to hot97 freestyles, right?

and some people dont get sets, i dont know if LA is into dancehall/rave culture, ask him, thats why i didnt post them cause everyone comes across them on their own

when it comes to grime you can never question me breh, you see where im from, ive been around it all, been to school and college with some of these guys, been to radio sets, and still raving it up in da club, some people need baby spooning, aint nothing wrong with that, like i said we can be here nameing dj's and the best radio sets in our opinions, if la fisher wants more

slew dem dvd is on my page
