Nah BET Cypher was the worst, Skepta was spitting old bars and was totally off beat.

And this whole tracksuit fashionista fukkery needs to stop, sick of it like these youts needed Skeptas approval. A lot of people are just forcing it, them tracksuits that make the whole scruncy nose when you walk:beli:

Any artist, rap or otherwise, I just want the good songs I dont give a F about the clothes thing

Skepta is gay, only little children in the UK like him, or those who listen to 'urban music'.

skepta is actually gay, so is his brother JME, and they are corrupting UK music

'this album will be so important' jesus christ, listen to yourself man. look at his fan base l0l

I don't understand the part where he says his previous management team was taking 20% and he says it like it's a bad thing. So his new management works for free?

Name albums.



Edt: I'll even go as far to say it started in 2009.
its not even about albums with grime tho, a lof of songs, free songs, ep's, instrumental stuff, radio

shyt was popping, people that think grime came back alive in 2014 are fukking stupid imo and they were never really into grime in the first place

but yeah again loads of stuff not on the surface level of grime was peaking, Dot was doing a few stuff, vocal and instrumental wise, p money was doing his thing with Blacks, Kozzie, Merky ace and MIK and their crew were doing a lot, new producers came up like Faze myiake and darq e freaker, and a few other things but if u want me to give u a list of things i personally liked, i will show u

  • Dot signing to Mercury. :francis:
  • I liked the OGz but they weren't doing anything memorable (when you look at the scene in the grand scheme of things), the most exciting/memorable thing was the Ghetto and P-Money back and forth.
  • Grime Daily went down too. :francis:

Have u heard the music dot was releasing in those times tho, not just voclas but instrumentals too

Pmoney released a few tracks that i liked and other people seemed to like them too, u saying nothing memorable but let me u ask u this, do u keep up with grime 24/7 bro?

i aint trying to shyt on u breh but theirs loads of people that claim the rap game dead but theirs been a lot of music that have came out

same with grime, a lot of people that dont seem to keep an eye or ear out often say shyt like its dead or something, when every year theirs been some great songs made

I gave up keeping up with Grime 24/7 late 2010, would occasionally check Hyperfrank's blog till she stopped posting (towards the end, she started covering acts like Kreayshawn). Saw her at a Lil B show in July of 2011 and she seemed like she didn't like the direction things were going in either. :francis:
