I swear what a legend Skepta is. Hes one of the main reasons I still make Grime music. Sometimes its just nice to make what comes naturally and still evolve to any genre. Good career tips 🙏
Hes sick. I like him coz he has an old school sound like the early grime days with his flow and the records he chooses to sample over. Fair play to him. But skepta wiley durrty doogz are the original and others ofcourse
Skepta and alot of these grime MCs from back in the day are finally realising how much pain crime on crime and bloodshed their music encouraged. Go on then go on then draw for the chetti. Your conscious catches up. These guys can't go making badman shank and gun music forever.
The gang business it is not worth it instead you should be working for your family to live a better life You need to have Perseverance Every day have to work hard I know how is because I play football for Southend United academy So I know you have to work hard every single day And you have to stay focused on the task at hand💯🔥🥶
Skepta is the greatest in the UK, helps the younger’s, gives opportunity for uk artists by working with popular US artists. Stormzy made a rap in a park then claimed he was the king hahaha, some say Wiley or d double but I think Skepta is the best UK MC cos of his involvement in the forwarding of the music scene’s, lyrics and subject matter and style. Stormzy making himself look an idiot, working with tion Wayne n them and saying the crowns to heavy lol u r terrible
I have unforgivably not said Gigg’s, Dizzee, Tinie and prof green in the greatest in the UK list. I won’t mention CasIsDead cos he is the greatest in the world but he came after Skep so until then, Skepta is the best in the UK music scene. End of.
Skepta has been a user of people like everyone else out here, you get where wiley is if you help everyone out, an angry old man shouting into a phone. Like Jammer wouldn't have gone through and left everyone if he could? These guys act bigger than the map but they are only a dot surrounded by dots. It's you eat me or I eat you. Skepta acting like he is fighting for something? Bro you are spitting bars in shite spanish wearing a tuxedo like sunglasses at night. Fuckin dafty.
@@Lucky-eq4po u been listening to the wrong stuff g, listen to KO, Headie, Unknown T theyre all deeper than drill and actually have solid lyrics and theyre just differnet with it
@@Teknostorm108 guess im not used to that lazy flow.. im used to bars and story telling in songs. Time and place for all types of music i guess. But i swear most of todays rappers chat bareeee breeze.. basically dry snitching on themselves in tracks lol 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
I know this Ninja Skepta didn't have the nerve to open his mouth talking about how Americans aren't as cultured when that whole hip hop scene in the UK is rooted and based on American Hip Hop culture, specifically Black American Descendants of Slavery culture. You don't have Grime, Garage, or Drill without Hip Hop from Black Americans. Ninja, you didn't get that rhythm and cadence from no Jamaica or Africa. You didn't learn it from nobody in any other foreign country. You got the foundation of your music from Black folks in America and then added to that. I see Skepta wearing street styles influenced by Black American Descendants of Slavery/Freedmen/Soulaan culture! WTH is he talking about? Ya'll really need to stop that bullcrap in the UK always trying to throw shade at Americans.
People from all the corners of the Earth live in the USA. They bring their culture with them. We have people from all continents who live in America. Also, we do have many Americans who travel outside of America. Skepta sounds like a complete clown for that comment. Disappointed with his ignorance about Americans.
I don't know.. This comes across very entitled.. almost disingenuous.. Like somehow he has ascended to a higher mind space to a point where he has elevated past the mentality of people who make this music. Obviously Mc's of his generation are no longer in the same mindframe they were in when Grime was at is peak but that does not mean that he can no longer make the music, I mean Jay Z still raps 30 years after his come up? No? .. This was hard to listen to, he was almost making an excuse for the Musical direction his career has taken. It seems far too often Mc's who have transcended 'Grime' and have gained great crossover/international success think they have to disown the genre almost like they have outgrown it, and Seek success in the wider more popular arena. It's just disappointing to hear someone try and justify this 😔
U didn't understand where he was coming from he's talking about his growth of maturity compared his state of mind plus his knowledge and understanding of where he came from helped him healed some his pain but can't really except anyone else to understand his journey
Fair point and i get it. I love grime and wish old grime mcs will still do the thing in the genre BUT it is progression so i get his point of view as well. Stomzy prob the one that used grime most as a stepping stone
Surely this is less of a justification and more of a realisation of self, if he’s no longer on that energy which allowed him to come up in grime then why should he have to pretend that he’s a 10 year younger version of himself, when he’s at the stage in his career and life more importantly where realistically he can do what the fuck he wants. We all love grime music and I for one would love it to go back to the pinnacle of LOTM and rinse but they were young men predominantly rapping about their experiences in the ends and music was an emotional and spiritual release but also an opportunity to get out. Surely it becomes more disingenuous if you have a 40 year old skepta on his block rapping about things that happened years ago.
UK Drill is an American import music and doesn't translate with British Culture, unlike Afro Swing does. Drill rappers are bad for business unlike Grime or Afro Swing is, but "we" rather support murder music from America instead of pushing Afro Swing forward and creating it into a business just like Grime and DnB. Why would Nike, Reebok or Adidas pour money into Drill rappers when they'll either be killed or be in jail a week later? We have Not3s, Yxng Bane, B Young and other Afro Swing artists making positive music, but prefer to support members of Zone 2 or Silwood nation. Personally, Londoners are the most lost people of all living in England, which is why others from main cities in England such as Manchester, Bristol or Liverpool laughs at Londoners. American carbon copies lol.
Bro all early grime lyrics were about guns and murder. Drill is just this in a different format. All these drill gangs were spitting about this shit before as well, drill has just changed the beat (and made it worse debateably).
@@james505ism You definitely didn't start listening to Grime until after 2009. Bear Man, Jammer, Tinie Tempah, Lightin' etc weren't dropping guns and murder lyrics in their Music Videos. There's so many Grime videos of the Channel U years where the music was actually fun and entertaining. Grime comes from Dance Music, while Drill is worse Rap music.
@@NainocardYeah for sure but violence was still present in the music. Dunno man I think drill is is pretty reflective of UK culture atm is nothing like the american version. Can hear the influence of other UK genres like afro swing jungle grime etc in the beats.
Furthermore, your American accents when you do put them on definitely sound forced and you all sound like you from New York. You can't do the intricacies and the varieties of American accents at all.
J W his heritage is based in a different country, well continent because it’s Africa. Even though he’s classed as a Britain citizen, there’s some people in Britain what don’t accept you because you ain’t got a full British heritage. That simple
Jammer = good beat maker but terrible MC. How did my man go from Nasty to BBK? 🤣 He needs to tell us the question we’ve been asking for years, what happened to Ears? 😅
