I Wear My Own Garms (GRIME)

Big Lurk · Post by **Big Lurk** » Fri May 25, 2007 7:40 pm

So what have been some of the best grime tunes of the last year or so?

Here are a few to begin with:

Wiley - Eskiboy

Wiley - I'm A Sinner

Scorcher - Runway

Wiley's new album is pretty good actually.

I'm gonna hijack this thread and praise what is probably my favorite Dubstep album so far: Distance - My Demons. Better than Burial's album, I'd say.

wiley's album is pretty good, but i was really hoping he'd have the sense to not fill it with tunes 'for the ladies' this time. also 'letter to dizzee' is teh gheyest song ever.

wiley - bow e3
wiley - cool off
the bug ft killa p & flow dan - skeng (fucking MURDEROUS)
roll deep - hickory dickory
roll deep - bring ur crew
trim - liar liar
ruff sqwad - xtra
the movement - good ol' days
tempa t's version of stageshow riddim

as far as dubstep, loefah's new stuff makes me want to punch people in the face in a really good way. also anyone who likes the burial album needs to check shackleton and all the skull disco crew - they just put out a 2cd comp which is so very good.

I absolutely love everything about Wiley. I love that he can't leave the Dizzee stuff alone, he can't resist doing trivial shit like dissing firecamp and the movement, when those conflicts are supposed to be finished with, on his album as opposed to one of his 76 mixtapes. He genuinely gives R Kelly a run for his money as greatest black man alive.

barknee wrote: the bug ft killa p & flow dan - skeng (fucking MURDEROUS)

Can't wait to hear that. I'd much rather hear Riko over the Bug though.

Anyway, a few more tunes:

Roll Deep - Celebrate

Shadetek & Skepta - Reign

Dizzee - Pussyhole (I think this is spectacular, but I seem to be in the minority.)

J2K - My Radio (not new, but I just heard it.)

Also, I've completely reversed my position on JME. I think he's great now, but I can't find the tunes I want to post.

Now, more tunes please. Don't leave me looking like Sebastian out here.

oh, totally cosigned on the Wiley love, he's probably the most exciting musician in the UK in my estimation. it's just frustrating because playtime is over could really have been the first perfect grime album - all the tunnel visions are proof that he's got it in him.

anyway

here's that skeng tune for starters:

can we get any full new grime albums?

Y@k Bollocks · Post by **Y@k Bollocks** » Tue May 29, 2007 4:14 am

Not really massivley up on dubstep or grime apart from what I peep online - mostly Skurdurs amazing uploads in MP3x.

The Bug Ft Flowdan - Jah War (Loefah Remix)
Kromestar - Surgery
Loefah - Disko Rekah
Loefah - Voodoo, cos it reminds me of an old jungle tune that used the same sample.
Coki - Burnin'
Mala - Bury The Bwoy

Is what i'm feeling. And Dubstep Allstars 5.

This track is nuts. Anyone see Wiley on the cover of Wire this month?

Nah - not really. They're all into their bhangra and stuff, nothing like grime, rap or whatever.

pen · Post by **pen** » Wed May 30, 2007 9:34 am

cool. cool. that megamix link didn't work for me. spent the last hour d/l'ing from my ghetto sarajevo innanet and the zipfile was empty when it finally arrived.

fuck.

yak bollocks,
interesting. i know a bunch of brown kids who do some r&b/pop rap kinda shit from the u.k., but that's it. too bad there aren't any others who are doing more progressive (hate that word) styles. ok, banghra is cool (for punjabis) and what not, but there's gotta be more to the scene than that...

any other brown kids doing shit like m.i.a? at least sonically?

thanks for the info.

Hmm - not that I know of, maybe someone here could correct me on that though.

Just from a cultural point of view, Asian communities from areas like east London tend to be fairly insular so their 'scenes' rarely attract other kids from outside of it. Unlike say dubstep or grime where you get a fairly broad spectrum of da' London yout' dem.

pen · Post by **pen** » Wed May 30, 2007 10:35 am

thanks for the info. my friends from london tell me the same. brown, white and black ones all say the same. as far as they can tell, there's no brown kids doing that sorta shit. which i find really hard to believe. or rather, i find it disappointing.

being a brown kid from canada who tries to do different types of shit, i was hoping to find some really boundary pushing peeps in the u.k. i know some homies from glasgow called 'brown boy breakz' who do some nice dnb/electro style shit, but that's it.

didn't mean to hijack the thread.

thanks for all the great links!

I was just thinking, grime mc's all have their little catchphrases, but with Skepta it's like his catchphrase is all of his lyrics.

Barknee, mix is really dope, cheers.

Binary, Grime is pretty exciting at the moment. New Dizze & Wiley albums out in a couple of days, and the new Ghetto mixtape (chances are that'll be mostly hiphop, but fingers crossed). Wiley's always in some wwf style beef with someone. The current one with nasty crew is pretty dope. Did anyone see the footage from Sidewinder? Marcus Nasty striding up and down the stage like a bull with shank in hand. Amazing. And there's all sorts of up and comers who I'm not really up on, but who people speak well of.

Here's the new Wiley video.

Shadetek & Jammer - Separating

Jammer - 5 On It I like Jammer.

These are all dope. Fucking hell at that Jah War remix. And skeng is mad too, thanks.

I'm not really interested in dubstep, unless someones threatening to stab me over it.

Here's Nasty Jack on Logan Sama's show a couple of weeks ago:

This is the guy Wiley is referencing on that Jacks Not Nimble track? Break down the beef for me.

And how come isn't you ain't not interested in Dubstep if you like that Jah War remix? I'd like to see an album produced by someone like Benga or Loefah with someone like Skepta or Trim chattin' over the top.

I would fucking love that. I just don't really have the attention span for instrumental music. Some of these tunes have me reconsidering my position though, they are fucking murderous.

I don't know anything about the beef to be honest, except that it's been going on for a few years. Nasty Jack's "Who Smoked All The Pipes" over pies is pretty funny. Here's some of the tunes, some from recently, some from a couple of years ago: http://www.sendspace.com/file/5xkt7s

And this hilarious clash at sidewinder: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c8ObP7zPlDM

p.s. Wiley's response to having his phonecall recorded is hilarious. Sole take note.

Big Lurk · Post by **Big Lurk** » Fri Jun 01, 2007 7:32 am

These new Duurty Goodz tunes are sounding promising:

Keep Up

They Back Me (Maniac Production)

tpp · Post by **tpp** » Fri Jun 01, 2007 5:27 pm

Some contributions:

1) Woah barny cheers for that mix pretttty fucking sick.

2) My favourite Grime tunes to date are "Drinking Beer"and "Beef With T".

3) Skull Disco is the fucking shit and is the only dubstep that doesn't make me fall asleep (although been quite feeling this Loefah stuff).
Check out "Blood On My Hands":
http://www.supload.com/listen?s=SHOB1H84Jq0

4) Ruff Sqwad "Xtra" is probably the epitome of what Grime should and could be and I don't really think any other tune even comes slightly close.

5) Grime is always best enjoyed with a low-budget Channel U video:
