It'd fit in better in a hip-hop thread.
And I'm trying to get /mu/'s opinion on the genre, and my prediction.

grime is shit

>implying grime isnt bleep

>>53966339
It would be better left on chavs stolen smartphones on the back of buses and outside tesco express'

>>53966382
Bit of a generalisation though.

>>53966290
back to ur shoegaze thread and beans on toast

Grime is just trendy now to americans

>>53966252
>grime is currently undergoing a massive resurgence in London

Not in a good way though. Yes German Whip was really popular but it was also shit. #that'snotme and On A Level were also popular and slightly less shit but neither Wiley or Skepta have made any actual Grime for a long time now.

Also Grime has gone from being the thing listened to by black 15yr old kids from London suburbs to the thing listened to be middle class white sixth formers. I don't know why that happened but it seems to be the case.

>>53966339
>mplying man like Skepta belong in /bleep/
You are vastly retarded. Skepta's productions used to be top tier, they're still okay now even.

>>53966373
Maybe on its own it is, but with an MC over it, no I wouldn't consider it /bleep/. Yeah the beats make bleepy noises but I doubt the mandem on /bleep/ listen to Stormzy.

>>53966639
lmao ok mate

I only have and listen to boy in da corner, can someone provide me - and other anons who are interested - a list of artists and albums?

>>53966365
*the

>>53966252
boy in da corner was good
dunno much about other stuff

>>53966631
Nah, honestly its blowing up with those sixth formers yeah, but its coming up in London estates as well. Look at man like Novelist. If he came out 2 years ago he'd probably be making Rick Ross type shit like fucking Sneakbo.

I'm not dissing or praising Skepta's production skills. I'm just saying that he doesn't really belong in /bleep/. I doubt guys in /bleep/ would appreciate me trying to start a conversation about grime MCs. That's not really their niche.

>>53966639

Do you even know what you on about.

>/mu/ now dickriding grime after Manlet West "discovered" it

one problem when people talk about grime is that they use released singles as a point of comparison/review.

the essence of grime is in live sets in clubs with djs, mcs, reloads, gun fingers.

even sets of youtube/soundcloud are better than released tracks by grime artists

>>53966785
ok so what do you suggest besides moving to east london and hanging out with nigerian lads

>>53966747
Oh don't get me wrong, the sound is very /bleep/, but do you really think they'd want to talk about the MC side of it?

I went to school near London so I listened to a decent amount of grime like 8/9/10 years ago but grime is so specific to London and not even the entire city so it's hard to imagine it reaching mainstream levels even in the UK (apart from the very rare exceptions like Boy in da Corner which everyone heard).

>>53966812
nigerian lads in london listen to chris brown and any us hip hop banger circulating on vine

#WhiteKidsKeepingGrimeAlive2015

>>53966837
Depends who's in it.

>>53966842
Grime hasn't been about just E3 since 2003. My second favourite crew is from Brixton and my third favourite is from Bedford.

any intelligent grime man in? mumdance, logos, the list can go on...

>>53966876
To be fair, grime's been really blowing up again in the past year. Like the original post said, grime is going through a revival similar to boom-bap in NY.

it's shite. the beats sound like a 13 year old messing around on garageband

>>53966954
>not listening to new wave grime

>>53966954
Man like CareFreeLifeTheBeloved don't understand the movement are you a dickhead fam? Man's movin like a rassclart wasteman out here uno

>>53966954
That is actually exactly what very early Grime was.

See man driving a German whip

Who remembers that Skepta All Over The House video that was just a fucking porno?
Fucking hell that was brilliant.

>>53967032
The Movement were completely shit.

>>53966954
American pls

>>53966252
it's gonna blow up then go back down in like under a month.

might be this year's bubblegum bass for people outside the uk.

soon as kanye/drake or whoever the kids look up too switch to something else. maybe go deeper into dancehall people will drop grime.

grime will never appeal to the mainstream outside of uk period. even if they switched to albums and shit not gonna work out
it's gonna get trashed by p4k and fagtano.

>>53967171
I was talking about the grime movement mate, not the crew.

>>53966921
Mundance's tunes with Novelists fucking bangs

>>53967199
The grime movement now is also shit so it applies to both.

>>53967179
What makes you say that. Boy In Da Corner is extremely highly regarded as a classic in both the grime and hip-hop worlds. I'm sure if Skepta's album is half as good as that it'll at least achieve some praise. Plus its not just the fact that Kanye and Drake are bigging it up, but they are working with Skepta. So are other US artists. Wiz Khalifa, A$AP Mob, Flatbush Zombies. They clearly like him.

>>53967294
And I'm mentioning Skepta because he's the frontrunner of all this. If he can keep up the US attention, he could bring other artists with him.

>>53967260
Eh its better than its been in a while. We've got Skepta, Dizzee, and Chip back. And we've discovered guys like Novelist (who literally embodies that old school Dizzee style grime similar to Joey Bada$$ and 90s shit) and Stormzy.

>>53967387
I think people are too quick to judge. None of these people are back, they have made maybe one track similar to their old school days and I completely believe any full lengths they put out will feature that one grime track and the rest will be shit. It's not like they haven't all done it several times before in their careers.

Stormzy is alright and so is Novelist, more exposure would do them well. I don't think Novelist embodies old school Grime, in fact he's the only MC I actually like over these new Grime beats.

The problem I have personally found with Grime in last few years compared to it's induction is that there are some massive instrumentals being made and some MCs are still putting out decent bars, but the two never seem to meet up somehow. The end result is you get a string of excellent instrumentals with no MCs over them and MCs spitting decent bars over Trap bullshit (this accurately sums up Wiley - Snakes and Ladders). It's not like in 05/04 when someone would release an instrumental and then everyone would end up freestyling over it. But times have changed, what can you do.

>Chip back
Back like this though? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4uldElMAhRk

>>53966663
grime mc's never made a good album, only dizzee managed too, you need to check out radio shows from the golden era
