***** stormzy is sick, people do need to stop hating on him tbh but Devlin is in a league of his own with other underrated grime legends likr Dot Rotten etc.
He's a living legend in the UK grime scene. He is literally an undeniable talent, he rips it apart in his own singles and take over tracks as a feature.
always good to hear Devlin, so much positivity and hunger to be better even when he's unanimously considered on of the best . keep up the good work..drop the album already been too long haha
devlin in his prime was one of the greatest lyricists up there with ghetto...he was one of the best in the scene from 06-08 at only 17-18 years old. the art of rolling is his magnum opus. ill always respect him for that but for years ive never really been into him since he started to slow the flow down and change the bars. not sure whether that was intentional or unintentional
He's always been arguably one of the bes live spitting on radio, his tunes are no where near as good as some of his vintage pirate radio and Westwood sessions, and more recently his appearance on Charlie Sloth's radio show.
Dev is awesome. Love how he's true to himself and don't feel he has to act or talk a certain even though he's in grime. Just lets his bars do the talking.
Original Dagenham grime scene thesaurus from back inna day, since he merked wiley at 17 years old no one dared try test devs apart from little dee a tiny bit but where the fuck is he now? Prison probably, even Wiley would say devs is lyrically the best!
Was There When Devlin And Ghetts Came To Northampton !! Performed London City But Changed It To Northampton City. Even Though We're A Town lol Gutted I Didn't Get To Take A Pic With Devlin, Next Thing Man Was Flying Out The Back Door Was Crazy ! #Memories ! #Northugton
I hope we can actually get another Grime album from Devz. I wasnt really feeling A moving picture. I want him to get back to the Tales of the Crypt sort of stuff.
Yeah all that stuff was fire, Bud Sweat and Beers was a hard project as well. I understand artists need to evolve and cant keep making the same shit, but i just felt that A moving picture was too far out of his comfort zone.
the mad thing is devlin was up there with wrecth, kano and ghetts when he was like 16 or 17. so you gotta think kano and wrecth been goin for way longer too get that good, devlin might have fully been born as a prodigy its a shame he took such a long break. i dont think hes no 1 in uk but hes top 5 for sure
When I come through I'm sweating like lee Evans an when I drop bars yea the question beckons am I coming for that number one spot or will I come second of course I won't my styles lethal just like weapons I know what I know don't care what ya reckon I want more doe then David beckham my boys blaze zoots an beers we neck em
Mad man ting Ting & you can suck out coz I spit bars on the mic then I duck out if I'm in the place then get the fuck out you come across me blud your lucks out yeahh
you've got the respect how much respect he has for dogzilla always mentions he's name respect !! when wiley calls man the "devlin greatest grime mc of all time "
Big interview, massive fan of devlin, rate him above most artists. after seeing the tracklist for the album im kinda disappointed we've already heard half of if. Still rinsing out tales from the crypt and the art of rolling though 🔥
not sure why he would cringe at heat up freestyle , that still today is one of my favourite freestyles, "when I come through they're sweating like lee evans"
I heard the first 3 seconds.Turned it off bought the album on windows music 🎶 Cause he's fuckin Bad nuh rarse...Gwaarn Devlin big up yr self don't care how long you go away for legend status..( came back for the rest of the freestyle too).
