Also as a white guy from Scotland that's followed grime for over a decade now you're so right about Chris and Kem, the video where one of them doesn't even recognise Konan, just everything reeks of opportunism, I was so disappointed so much of the scene was giving them a pass.
Agree about Chris and Kem, but the London perception that everywhere else in the country is rural and cows is ignorant. Plenty of places about the country where man are still about that life and statistically most of these dudes will be white just based off the demographics of the country.
if we have this oppinion then no working class person can sing opera . dont be silly this what help break division . no one taking the piss cos they loved the song (hows that taken the piss) and helps younger the scene will die cos new things develop .
“You took us on that fucking ship from Africa . . . We aren’t going no where” Poet you need to calm down on this whole black against white people hype man. The fact you even talk about little white Amy from Scunthorpe listening to Stormzy just shows how accepted grime music is now a days. That’s a positive, without it there wouldn’t be the money and commercially viable opportunities that you also mentioned earlier in this podcast.
Mide if you read it properly, what I actually said is how grime is accepted in mainstream media and culture, this is allowing grime artists to be professional and make a career from their music
Shout out Chuckie. Love the podcast bruv. I know you don't know man from soap but I follow and peep my guy Yung Filly, you should get him on the chat bro. You are doing a really good thing and the content is deeper ! Keep it coming yeh, sending mad love from Australia
What about Roadman Shaq with Mans not hot. He was taking the piss out of the culture won complete parody. Any issues with him? Or does he get a pass because he's from a certain background and area of the UK?
Something Like Anonymous he's from the hood which is why he gets his pass. Chris an kem are 2 white neeks taking the piss out the culture.. get em poet
Sw11 London that's wrong. What do you mean by a pass, that's not very inclusive. What about Michael Dappah with Mans Not Hot. He is completely taking the piss out the culture. So how do you feel about that? Chris and Kem didn't rap any lyrics taking the piss.
Micheal is a comedian from the hood.. he has more characters than big shaq he understands what he's doing it's coming from a place of experience. He ain't jus Some any guy like these 2 neeks who know nothing about the culture come steal a mans slogan.. without paying homage to the guy the mad the phrase popular in urban culture. Now they wanna talk bout grime. The nerve..
they wasnt culture vulture . chris and kem just went on show sang some bars cos they are fans the same as u . then if iindustry came to you and said hey do want make record would you . probably yes - even went to number one . the people that approach then new there was market to sell ( a culture called the charts which sells records) peot see culture and divides every one - he scared loses his identity and chris and kem are not racist why get upset about song being in the charts when they celebrating the music ( why cos scared it loses it identity dont worry you wont control what people differnet generations old young black or white ( rember the new generation will like something different like i am old skool but mumble rap was new wave ( sure something will replace it . who know it might be opera . country music ect we dont know yet
Enjoying this podcast, the way Poet is going on about people outside London is so dumb though. "People that are not from London, proper rate London you know". 😂😂😂. We don't, you're so gassed.
Gregor Stevenson bare ppl do tho I go essex and say I’m from London and they think I’m one roadman n shit on a gassed one fr ppl over gas London living here is a fuckery and ppl who don’t experience it rate the glamourised idea of urban London and hoods and shit
Man the boys went Compton to learn bout culture. Give them a break hey ffs ppl need to learn so wot they are white!.. Stormzy Loved dem boys. Just sayin
Pr3dat0rXVX Gaming coz it's being a #CultureVulture they didn't put on for the culture but are trying to reap the rewards off of their name. There's rules to it.
Pr3dat0rXVX Gaming cos they don’t get the fucking culture u mug people can’t jus hop on something uneducated it’s like an uneducated man going uno and teaching bio physics ygm
How come when "big shaq" aka Michael Dapaah jumps on a song, lets lurk - 67(which is big song in the uk trap scene) its deemed as good for the culture and a laugh? Hes fully taking the piss out of people in the trap scene and "road men" but its ok because hes not white? 67 didnt get a single penny from Michael Dapaah or call to tell them to see if it is ok if he used the song? So how is this at all different from what Chris and Kem have done? Apart from Chris and Kem are white? Discuss?
Michael is a Black man and he's FROM the culture. What you would consider the "ghetto" in London, which is where this music comes from. So he has every right.
