Show These To Your Mum

Hey meatball, what's the 411?

It's been a good week right? The good time train is still travelling and I hope you're onboard because the playlist this week is like central station for the weekend, it'll take you anywhere you need to go, Grimeville, Ethereal Hill, Funky Town, you will get there when you play this out. You can leave your jackets at home for this trip, you might think its starting to get cold but you're about to get hit with some fire so just chill out with the beanies and scarves for right now.

Another week another #BBHMM remix, Diplo and Grandtheft went and put their spin on it and it's one of the good ones. More stuff sourced from Triple J Unearthed, this time from Brisbane boy Reuben Stephan. He kinda blew me away a bit with his debut track I Got It Now, this dude can do everything, he writes, sings, raps, produces and engineers all his own stuff, if you're into people like Robert Delong you should watch for more to come from him. Grime is pretty heavily featured again this week because I get down to it so hard and that's the only explanation you need for that. Then there is a bunch more from faves like TroyBoi, Ben Khan and Shakka, who i'm kind of obsessed with atm.

That's all we've got time for today folks, please enjoy the complimentary refreshments and I hope to see you onboard again next time.

Love Captain Kritty xx.

p.s you should know that I was one second guess away from titling this post Choo Choo Choones because of the train reference, I think its for the best I let that one go.




ya dig?

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. 

#SHUTDOWN
