Do people actually still listen to Grime?

Not even sending but it just sounds dated now IMO

AJ Tracey the only "new" MC that I rate.

Going by this thread, apparently so. :ld:


I hear you though, the only grime I check for in 2016 are the OGs :flabbynsick: Most of these new nikkaz are air to man.

I think it lost it's appeal to a lot of the original fan base because it's not seen as street music anymore, only the white media claims it still has street credibility. It's just for hipsters now IMO

.

of course, just like u have the mainstream rap , you still get alot of underground stuff that people turn a blind eye to

its the same with grime, the real underground shyt is alot right now but u aint gonna catch it if youre not searching for it

the sound has hierarchy levels, in grime id say theirs about 4 or 3 levels

the top level is stuff like skepta etc etc, the stuff thats always in your face now thanks to social media

Who should i be checking for, earlier in the year I was watching a few Mode/Radar etc. sets, Rocks was by far the best out of these new crop of MC's, Capo Lee was hard as well.
