History Of Grime

[casual]

Need to write an article for the college newspaper about the 'History Of Grime'..

Really need to give a good impression of grime to these mans cause I can blatantly observe that these people from my college are interested in it but do not know where to find grime.. Gona make sure I mention grimeforum still..

the request to the forum is if they can provide me with some positive events in the history of grime and/or ANY links to articles that have been previously written on this or a similar topic.

Thanx in advace still..
bless

Everyone uses encyclopedias for articles. You used the Grimepedia for any info yet?

That's a snippet right there. You can get some meaning from that I'm sure. I could if I wasn't in a 'cba' mood.

somewhere ive got that mtv interview about grime , might have some useful stuff , let me find it

['nuum general]

probably worth starting with a mention of so solid & 2 step 7 how it evolved from that

[feasible_weasel]

the history of grimes goes way back to the late 1980's with english mc rapping fast to hip-hopish dance beats.

mention pay as you go
you could talk about jme and skepta at glastonbury

[FG]

Might find this useful as well:

^ yer thats it, i did have but cant find damn , any1 got a download link

[FG]

Not really related to the question but still worth a look, a bit about MCing wqith an orchestra, so maybe you could link it in to how grime is adapting - more 'acceptable' form, real musicians in the scene, from raves to the mixtape etc

Fully grown that documentry was good, didnt ike the way it onyl showed Crazy Titch sentence at the end and not something about the succes of grime.

Crazy titch for such a hype MC talks some real sense sometimes.

grime is a cultural uk thing, its like asking where sausage rolls come from and just saying its sausages and pastry.

LOL @ Jammer... man was jus all about da place...high differently

and i swear jon e cash must bench press people... he's just hench *no homo*

[FG]

yh to the posts above, its an alright doc - an American made the doc, but about the Titch thing I suppose it was related to lyrics or music, so I suppose it cements the film's points about 'the grime' etc

yh Jammer is jokes, as is the classist-tension, with the journalists 'doing coke in a bar on a friday night'

its a lot

LOL @ Jammer

"Grime is a .... music."

[HypeKidd]

Meh i feel the need to mention "What do you call it? Garage? Urban?" You can't write a history of grime without Wiley and that song :)
