B Live Feat. Skepta, Newham Generals & Spyda "Modern Warfare 2" (Music Video)

This tune's been doing a lot recently. It's great to see a veteran of the scene such as B Live doing his thing once again. As usual, expect solid guest verses from both Skepta & the Newham Generals.

Diddy & Dirty Money Feat. Skepta "Hello Good Morning" (Grime Remix)

Logan Sama gave this remix the world premier on his Kiss 100 show last night.

Despite the fact that I think Diddy is a substandard rapper, this is a massive look for Grime scene. The US music industry has been taking influence from UK sounds for a while now, and it's great to see one of Hip Hop's biggest artists jump on a Grime remix, with one of the scene's best MCs.

Big up Skepta!

Skepta "Bad Boy" (Music Video)

This is pretty catchy. As long as the marketing and promo is on point, this has potential to do pretty well. The video's pretty good also, sporting an impressive list of cameos...

Available March 1st.

P.S. I swear Logan Sama rocks a skully 365 days a year...Which reminds me...If you haven't already heard, his show has been cut down to a mere one hour a week, from midnight to 1am Monday night/Tuesday morning.

Grimeforum have posted up instructions on how to show your support, as well as contact details for Kiss FM, should you wish to make a complaint.

Skepta "Blow My Own Trumpet"

New track from the microphone champion. Took me a few listens to get into, but it's worth checking out.

Plastician Set - Invasion @ Matter (06/02/09) (Video)

Just got put on to this from Ben/Hotpoint @ Optic...Plastician featuring Dizzee Rascal, Newham Generals (D Double E & Footsie), Skepta & Jammer at Matter, which is owned by the peeps behind Fabric. Seriously, when was the last time you saw/heard a lineup like this?!

Seeing the top 5 emcees in the game perform together is big, but it's all about Dizzee, who completely murkalized the dance. Check the part where he spits "Stop Dat" over Caspa's "My Pet Monster". It's too much...Definitely one of those "wish I was there" moments...



More footage of Jammer & Skepta killing it...

BONUS! Speaking of Jammer, I had to post this up. The video gives me jokes every time.



EXTRA BONUS! Remember the Murkle Girl video? Apparently she went to my uni...



"Cos it's Laura/Blud I'm a rebel"

Skepta "Sunglasses At Night" (Music Video)

SKEPTA - SUNGLASSES AT NIGHT


For those not in the know, it samples Corey Hart's hit from the 1980s.

It's not bad, it's catchy and it'll be Top 10 hit no doubt; but it seems that everyone's now following that trend of just spitting the simplest of bars over a familiar sample.

Cue more people flossing with shades in the club, looking foolish. How you guys (and gals) can see anything when you wear them is beyond comprehension.

On another note, it's all about DJ Ayres' re-edit of the original. Well worth tracking down...

C-C-C-Count with me!
