Breh, everybodys sound is influenced, that doesn't even mean anything. And i know timbaland was heavily influenced by jungle/drum and bass, its damn near obvious and he's said it a couple of times in interviews...esp when he was trying to take credit for dubstep ( at him for that)Breh Timbo's sound is influenced.... damn near bitten from jungle, drum n bass but slowed way the eff down. Timbo's percussion and bass game is jungle and drum n bass. A lot of grime producers come from the jungle, ragga, drum n bass mc bloodline. Sure Timbo might've influenced some but that DNA isn't his.
This is all 110% fact...not really
both are an offshoot of UK Garage
both Grime & Dubstep acknowledged each other, Dubstep more so, but they two different genres which (at the time) drew very different demographics. Grime was street music. Dubstep was for 'intelligent' () dance music fans
saying that though, it was the Dubstep demographic who welcomed Grime with open arms second time round (when Grime started to gain momentum again around 2011 through the instrumental movement)
also, just to clarify - Grime hasn't technically 'blown' in the UK, but that cos its black music essentially, and black music doesn't get a look in here. in terms of it blowing on an underground level, that shyt has happened over and over again whether it was Jungle, UK Garage (in it's many evolving forms), Grime, Dubstep, UK Funky, Road Rap, Instrumental Grime etc etc
to address the OP - Grime is not simply UK rappers rapping, it's its own fukkin thing with its own set of rules. the beats are what makes it what it is
Section Boys, 67 and them are not Grime, although quite obviously influenced
Brah no its not...they both come from dark garage...grime was the mc driven splinter off and dubstep was the producer driven splinter off..both were fed up with how the garage scene was goingGrime pre-dates Dubstep. Dubstep is an off-shoot of grime in many ways.
Now I look to other predominately large black countries for sound like Balie Funk, kwaito-house, township tech. South Africa oddly enough is creating some fresh sounds every couple of years, and new genres.

man dunno nothing bout west indian caribbean riddim.
link?Skepta just addressed this perception of Grime beats sounding unpolished/unfinished on Apple Beasts 1 now funnily enough, good interview.
SEENPeople forget that the UK is the only place where for one point in time Jamaica was looking at somewhere else, when we was doing Lovers Rock ..but i've stirred the pot enough in this thread, so we'll leave that be
all of this stuff is rehashes of AA musical genres
you dont know what any of them genres are do you breh
Yes, but you obviously don't... think modern reinterpretations of archaic AA music with a few "regional sounds" on top of it is innovative
