I was planning to have a little analysis of Skepta's latest foray into this electro business, Sunglasses At Night. However, the forum people have their eyes on the ball (http://www.grimeforum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=15533) and I was too late. Like Skepta on the Cypher video (http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=xGW8IeNy-nI).

He wasn't the only one, and I rate Skepta highly still. But Sunglasses, as well as the collaboration with Ribz (http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=lhcxCiTK6tM), doesn't really inspire any sort of confidence. Artists do have to show versatility these days, but you still have to do yourself justice. Skepta is better than this.

Skepta - Sunglasses At Night (Radio Rip)


The track was featured on Logan's show last Monday, along with a couple of other tunes that caught my ears. Bring Your Click should feature on Rapid's album, and the sooner that comes the better.

Rapid & Ruff Sqwad - Bring Your Click (Radio Rip)


I only deal in threes.

Bullet Ah Go Fly (Frisco Remix) Feat. Badness, Riko, Flow Dan & Killa P (Radio Rip)


Voltage was Logan's guest, and the MC was on the set with Realist and Scruface. The set was very good, with a top-notch selection that kept me from nodding off. Realist again proved why he's a name to be reckoned with, and was allowed more freedom than his appearance on Westwood a few weeks back, which involved being paraded by Asher D and only being able to spit on one beat. Voltage came with his trademark bars, and Scruface's skippy flow cut through the hype beats on offer.

the beat to the Ruff Sqwad track is heavy, who produced it? Rapid?

This Skepta track is growing on me,

Good read.

Those who complain, would do well to remember that you don't have to click on a thread started by Fullygrown- you can choose not too.

Nice read.

Ingore the haters. Too many people come on here expecting a blog to be filled with an impractical level of industry excloooosives. As if every blogger is Little Dee's next door neighbour or Wiley's brother and is privy to every bit info in the scene.

Sometimes a concise round-up of the week's events is enough.

What did the skeng do to the tree though?
