With Ghetts being arrested for death by dangerous driving, it got me thinking how stupid people in the UK are with this shit. You see too many men, buying leasing very powerful cars, to just stunt on the road. And in their head, they flex like they're a serious driver, because they can cane a RS3 on the A406.

It pisses me off. And you know full well, these type of guys who think they're fast drivers, have never taken a car on a circuit, because they'd be horrified at having to pay out for tyres, or how to actually race a car, or the general cost overall.

It's not even a jealously thing. Look at the video of Ghetts booting a Rolls Royce around town and trying to flex. He claims he's about fast cars and driving fast, but that just looks ridiculous.

I do not understand how you can like both at the same time, especially with this moral panic about immigration being the problem within the uk. there is no grime without immigration. you have lost the plot.

Putting together a new tee based on early grime. What am I missing? Interested in people's feedback on this?

Comment actually underrated MCs. not MCs that most people have heard of and/or think are some of the greatest

I think he kind of has, in a way.

He was considered one of the best at the time. Deserves more flowers, imo.

It’s crazy how we don’t talk about his catalogue more, his Wiley diss, Fuck Radio, OT, The Movement.

His legendary freestyle with Deeperman:

Last Update: The below is what happened in the main Grime War, the main war caused a lot of other people to start beefing each other and ended up been to hard to track. IMO those other 'mini wars' wasn't really linked to what happened below, so this is the final update I will be doing.

You may find some broken links such as some of Wiley's disses on Youtube not working correctly. I will in time update these broken links but for now, just google them lol.

So back in 2015, /u/barneythepurplethot done a thread with a full timeline of all the beef from 2015.

Considering it’s poppin off again, I think there needs to be one done for all the current beef. If you spot anything that’s wrong, just let me know.

I’ll try and keep the thread updated if anything else happens. The tweets and certain videos have been backed up to Imgur and Streamble because I know certain heads like to go on a deleting spree.

For future reference, when I say Dot, I mean Dot Rotten. I’ve also signified the actual dubs by putting bullet points next to them so you can jump straight to them if you’re not bothered about the tweets.

I found this kid whilst scrolling on tiktok, and genuinely I believe he has potential. At 16 years old he’s making some beautiful tunes bro.. He has some great lyricism and I truly believe everyone should have a listen

literally just listening to old reggae records on samplette and i found the sample. idk what to say bro this is crazy to me.

it's desmond dekker - perseverance

use the info however you want

1. SN1 - Mad Situation

2. P-Money & Little Dee - Skatty

3. Lethal Bizzle - Police On My Back

Do you agree or disagree with this statement? If not what do you not like about it?

Saw Skepta post this the other day and it made me wonder which of his own tracks he was referring to as pop slop. He’s done some questionable ones over the years! Also, this is not Skepta hate he’s one of my favourite artists been listening to him since like 2007.

Some that came to mind for me were:

1. Rolex Sweep

2. Sunglasses at Night

3. Oynama Sikidim Sikidim

4. Cross My Heart

5. Bad Boy

Also wondered what period he meant by ‘sick run’ - maybe Microphone Champion or Been There Done That?
