UK Grime

[The Intergalactic Koala]

I know this genre gets so much shyt in the States because "UK rappers lolz", but seriously it's perfect workout music. Grime is like some Pride FC/UFC theme music shyt.

Here are some of my favs

Tempa T


JME


Lethal Bizzle


Devilman


Saskilla


Kano

 

[Menelik II]

Only Kano was passable there, and thats only coz he's an OG. TEmpa T is , and so was devilman.

So you mean to tell me this doesn't slam though

I still maintain that the true essence of Grime is captured in radio sets and stage shows. That is where you'll hear real HYPE.

I love/hate the evolution of the genre and where it is now, hence why I call it Grime 2.0.

And yes, its perfect workout music. Personal bests get shattered if you're listening to N.A.S.T.Y. crew on the bench loool.

Durrty Goodz is another good Grime rapper. Dude did an impression of the Lord of the Mics battles that was crazy. Reminds me of Chamillionaire's Roll Call songs.

I see your point because some of the tracks I been hearing lately lacking the aggression and sounds American inspired, compared to tracks like these:

Grime is trash. The beats are soulless and out dated.

No different from trap beats over here.

At least some of the grime beats are catchy.

No. Trap music goes HARD, Grime might have sounded hard in 2004 but we were not listening. I'm not a hater because I love french trap even tho I can't understand it.

Say what you want about Grime, but it captured London's sound at the time (atleast in working class areas)

Some of the early music for us is what 90s hip hop is for you man
