I have a lot of family in the UK, so when I was younger, I was put on to the garage / grime movement. I started with So Solid Crew and Oxide & Neutrino, and now I’m all about that Boy Better Know camp. My favorite grime artist, JME, dropped this joint from his upcoming album Digital Dropout. I think it’s incredible. Wordplay is crazy, and it’s just different. I mean, who else drops 8 different short verses? I’m all about it. The video dropped in mid-August, and I’ve just seen it for the first time today. Expect to see more grime up here regularly, and if you need more grime, e-mail me and I’ll get you hip. If you don’t know what he’s saying (the accent can do that to you sometimes. Get cultured though. I’m just playing. Sheesh.), hit the “continue reading”; I got those lyrics for you so you can follow and see why it’s clever.

i swagger jacked this entirely from road to zion, and i’m reposting it for those anybody who gets upset at people voicing their opinion. in the words of kanye ta-da:

“even if they’re dissing me or i’m the butt of jokes, i respect people for giving their real opinion.”

so when you hear me say something reckless on this page, it’s no diss. i’m just voicing my opinion. not shitting on anybody. just trying to give people something other than what TV and radio forces you to be on. that’s why bloggers are the new dj. that’s what i heard, anyway.
