Friday Grime Day

It's grime time, trussss me. 

3 of my favourite grime boiz Skepta (left), Wiley (middle) and Bonkaz (right) just dropped 3 of the most *fire emoji* music videos ever this week. Grime is taking off rn, coming out hot from England, it's a relatively new genre that came about in the early 2000's and is basically a development from rap, UK garage and dancehall, it's so heavy, it sounds so dirty and it's ridiculously addictive. Don't worry this is no Dizzie Rascal shit, it's so much more legit than that. 

Skepta is killllling it after he released SHUTDOWN a couple of months ago and he has just dropped the video for it and the aesthetic is so large. Black and White sportswear as far as the eye can see, yes Skepta i'm all about it. He's got his whole squad behind him doing the whole Kanye West All Day thing (which was inspired by Grime) and I really wish I could be apart of it, I have a black tracksuit so I'm halfway there right?

Wiley is sick, I want Wiley to rap me a theme song that will be played every time I pull up or walk into a room. My favourite thing he has ever done is rap about how he likes rice, basmati, but this new song Chasing The Art is great too, he just put this video out 3 days ago and it's prettttyyy tight, the best part is the graffiti Queen Elizabeth wearing a flatcap, gwan with yo bad self Lizzy! 

Then my newest find and love is a fine young lad by the name of Bonkaz. He has been around for about a year and is now starting to blow up after he FINALLY released Run The Block  after only playing it live or in exclusive radio shows. So I am so glad I can finally have it on demand and on repeat, just the way I like it. If that wasn't enough to take over my life, he went and dropped the video on us and i've been unable to stop ever since. 

These guys are just 3 of the many, many, many grime acts that are changing the game right now. If you're into this and you like the vibe, I suggest you also keep an ear out for people like Novelist, JME and Sir Spyro to name a few.WHAT A TIME TO BE ALIVE! Long live grime #wahgwansxc 

Love, Kritty xx 

p.s if your in Australia it's pretty cold rn so you probably have a hoodie lying around somewhere close, I suggest you source out that hoodie and put it on before watching these videos in order to get the full grime experience. :) Welcome.
