embarrassing

[JustGeo]

I like it.

Especially the micheal jackson/riverdance combo at 1.15, some serious gif material there.

[Ari Gold]

i thought the best gif was at about 1:59

[Ari Gold]

wait, no, your right. dunno how i didnt clock that the first time around.

[DJ.DLK]

embarrassing

i agree with this still..

[Selecta Limit]

Tunes good. Way to short tho. The video looks big tho still.

[Ar Piff]

its actually a sik tune

[00GRiME00]

embarrassing

.

he badly wants to chart in the top 10



i bet he's thinking that this worked 4 wiley it will work 4 him,

using minimal simple bars and a bate catchy sample as the hook

[R-Style]

videos not bad...

songs still shit

as far away from grime as he can possibly get right now

[Odotkae]

i actually like the tune
gd video

[screwface]

i like it

[G-Rhyme]

Horrible.

[Bluntwun]

it would make me embarassed to show some1 this video who didn't know Skepta and say im a fan of this guy.
Seems like the whole scene's selling out.. is this as poppy as "she glows"?

edit: By the way i had heard this time ago but video just confirms how mersh the tune is

[K P M]

Green screen with clever editing... How original :dozey:

Not even in a club or nuttin lol

[Eagle]

awful. awful. awful

so bad when you consider how everyone thought he was back after that set on westwood last month

[Breathe Beats]

what a joke, tunes fucking shite

skepta tries to hard to be mainstream

and anyone who wears sunglasses at night/in a club is waste

[Ryddel]

Aint that bad, I like it.

[Bluntwun]

so bad when you consider how everyone thought he was a grime mc that came with road bars and good production

C/S

[Jimmy Darmody]

hate it.

*goes back to listening to goodz*

[KDotK]

You really can see whose got a low budget...

[Entity]

Skepta is crazy mistaken when he tries calling himself the king of grime. He needs to stop begging the mainstream.

[DJMARX]

i aint gonna lie dat video is too much
dat tune is a skankers!!!!

i dont kno y u man are hateing it, it's a club tune not a 'grime' tune
u cant do grime 24/7

[Jimmy Darmody]

lmao

[Jboy]

Showed it to my work friend... she's loving it. She has no idea who skepta is but she keeps playing it on repeat anf has the jingle in her head lol

[Skeptical]

50/50 i like/dislike

[Tight and Bright]

Video's good. Quite professional. Song would be quite a skankers in a club tbh.

[LC1]

[whats_the_score?]

I usually hate shit like this, but it aint that bad.

[Eric Cantona]

The 'Roses are red.....' bar puts me off it, makes it sound even more cheesy then it is! Remove the cheesy line from the chorus and the tune is big

[G.K.]

This has to be the worst/gayest video ever to be connected to out scene. I can see myself loving this tune when I'm drunk in a rave but as long as I'm sober it will always make me sick. It's shit shit shit.

*Puts one Autopsy (The Skepta vocal)*

[ALM]

fuck skepta

[G.K.]

The 'Roses are red.....' bar puts me off it, makes it sound even more cheesy then it is! Remove the cheesy line from the chorus and the tune is big

Na the worst bit is when he's whispering "I can't see a thing".

EDIT: When is Microphone Flop out anyway?

[Xtra P]

Its good for what it is, should do better than Rolex sweep which shouldn't be to hard tbh

[markasdarkas]

fuking hell is that what you have to make to try and get on another level?

[140GrimeTime]

Tune is sick, video is sick....Good work

[G.K.]

Tune is sick, video is sick....Good work

Sick?

Just out of curiosity what was the first Skepta tune you heard?

[TRU_G]

The 'Roses are red.....' bar puts me off it, makes it sound even more cheesy then it is! Remove the cheesy line from the chorus and the tune is big

Get me the beat is actually pretty sick

[Doctor]

If he had spent more than 3 minutes writing the hook this wouldnt be a complete flop
Verses / beat aint terrible

[Santino]

TBH i like it :). lol at jme.

[TheBayveMan]

lol, big up the no vibes man dem. This tune is fucked, video was neat aswell

[R-Style]

shit. its grownin on me. dammit.

[Xtra P]

If you take your grime hat off, its a decent riddim

[RIP Jakey]

If you take your grime hat off, its a decent riddim

yeah I don't mind it for what it is

[S U P E R M A N !]

rah its got that yankee effect where the big video makes a tune you dont like decent.

Rah

[Crawla III.]

Nice vid.

Embarrassing tune.

[Xtra P]

I agree, the video does make the tune seem better

[G.K.]

Video is swag. Is everyone watching the same video I was? with the dreadful dancing that makes skepta look spastic and stupid effects.

[The Elijah]

If you take your grime hat off, its a decent riddim

exactly. This is not supposed to be autopsy freestyle.

This is a lot better then Rolex Sweep, Take me back, Shes Glowing

[Stax]

just a remix of a rick ross tune..just made it more "grimey" and spat a few bars.

[The Don]

it would make me embarassed to show some1 this video who didn't know Skepta and say im a fan of this guy.

This!

"Roses are red, violets are blue, you know I got my eyes on you".

Come on now fucking hell. Usually Drink, Usually Dance was catchy, this just makes Skepta sound 10.

Videos alright though.

But come on.

[fuk off]

lol @ dancin like a fruitcake in the vid and the ABC,123 bars .
Skepta's past lost he's a fraud

[Leng Man Louie]

girls are quite serious, videos alright shame the song is appauling though

[I Can See You]

lol at the comments on the video page

[D.MAN]

neva catch me playin it in my car, but videos ok ...tune is catchy,can see what hes goin for...


this is exactly da kinna ting goodz was talkin bout on his mixtape

[ZDOT]

its alrite, nothing special, track is only 2 min

[JOEPLUS]

Though i hate to admit it i think its gonna be a banger. But after these tunes recently from him if he ever says hes the king of grime. i will stfuppercut him.

[Equilibrium]

tune is catchy beat is decent i like the early pulse x style bit in near the end
girls are peng nice effects
looks proffessionale

[JACK]

grime people still have patience for skepta? man is now as lost as scorcher if not more tbh

[whats_the_score?]

The tune aint long enough, by the time I've got my sunglasses on the tune is over then I just look daft.

[Phader]

im feelin the vid stlll....even tho im not a skepta fan

[Burden Durden]

coulda done wiv a feature from taio cruz

[Birdman]

his dancin is hilarious, especially at the start where hes just standing and stuff lmao

[jp88]

Video is good, MO is a big boi video director.

[lilbenny1234]

This is one of them tunes you either love or hate tbh

[I Can See You]

grime people still have patience for skepta? man is now as lost as scorcher if not more tbh

lol

skepta is much more of a lost soul than scorcher is.. by far

scorch has re-united with cold blooded and spat his old bars the other night hes still sick just needs to get back to making some harder grime instead of doing the same as wretch

the videos good and the song is catchy even though its been used before which i didnt know before, so thats kind of whack.

[I Can See You]

p.s who produced the tune was it skepta?

[lilbenny1234]

p.s who produced the tune was it skepta?

yeah

[Jesaja]

There's a new track/freestyle on his myspace player too.. its actually pretty good.

[Mums_Kitchen]

the video made me like the tune

[jp88]

There's a new track/freestyle on his myspace player too.. its actually pretty good.

It's big still...

[Mike]

Why do MC's constantly think that they have to make Electro to appeal to a wider audience? it's about creativity... not what genre it is.

[Bojigol]

jme's cameo made me laugh hard n/h

[lilbenny1234]

jme's cameo made me laugh hard n/h

no homo is so overused

[Eric Cantona]

What label is putting this out?

I wanna see that as much as the next guy, and think Skeptas more lost than Scorch... but go look at Scorchers new myspace tune and layout; Shit's sickening.

[SE15]

its an ok tune
Big video

[TerrorS]

Wow, he is really going for the charts with this effort.

Good video, Good beat (allbeit electro), i hate the bars. Its not even that they are basic, they are just overly shit. You don't need to have any skill whatsoever to write or spit bars that shit.

Overall i dont hate the tune and i think it might do well but to me skepta's better days are behide him. At the height of the war with ghetts, skepta seemed to take a step forward in terms his overall skill as a mc, these days i can't listen to him. Some of his bars make me cringe.


BTW, Skepta is in that very small group of black guys that can't dance lol

[Andre]

I can't believe this guy used to spit with Big H lol

[BOSS CAT]

Wow at the dancing!!

Find him wid da crew rockin those moves ina'corner!!

Goes against everything I stand for ..but.. quite like the tune.

He's gon hit the chart sometime in the future.

Just dont count the cringe worthy attempts :p

[BOSS CAT]

BTW, Skepta is in that very small group of black guys that can't dance lol


Stryder 'longside him, haha

[Tight and Bright]

i blame wretch tbh

Wretch is a fiend for ruining mc's.

What a cunt.

[TerrorS]

Wretch is a fiend for ruining mc's.

What a cunt.

:dozey:

Your talking shit!

[Eric Cantona]

It ain't Wretch's fault, but.. he is a cunt still

[nii-o]

I actually really like this track for some strange reason

but he should have performed better in this video. much better

[ALM]

meridan should dead this fool

[phikz]

On first view, I thought video was good and the tune was god awful, I was just plainfaced through the whole thing :| Then when I watched it again, the video is still sick apart from the dancing but the actual tune and the beat are good. Lyrics aren't. I really really have no idea what possessed Skepta to draw for the roses are red primary school, valentines day bars. Kills the track IMO

[Retrofreak]

This tune hurts my blackness.

....

[Kay Mizan UKM]

its alright still. Not really something you would expect from Skepta but its just him trying something different.

[iLL.KRiLL]

oh not bad tune

wait a minute

is that Skepta? cmon man wtf is wrong with him he supposed to spit sicks bars and now hes dancing on a rave tune singin about roses are red and that other flower is blue.
cmon skepta man up, you just lowered your levuls man. Dont go mainstream, horrible. mainstream are made for yanks

[fuk off]

[ME15]

[feasible_weasel]

tune isnt too bad
lol roses are red violets are blue
video is really really dull

[Dioufy]

iLike this shit
this joint = soft
dark = hard
nice balance skeppy

[streetstarz]

Wiley and Skepta are on this electro music, guess it sells worldwide.

[Eric Cantona]

This tune ain't even electro?

[Andre]

I swear most grime fans don't even know what electro is lol they just label anything an mc does that isn't grimey, electro

[JACK]

lol na

[Jammy-Jae]

this aint bad really...

[J.R]

this looks like a MO video? isit?

[The Elijah]

this looks like a MO video? isit?

correct

[J.R]

yeh you can tell, he has a style

[HugoP]

BTW, Skepta is in that very small group of black guys that can't dance lol

The forerunner of that group has to be Tinchy Stryder, he flaps his arms about like Kermit the frog!


This track is so lazy and unoriginal, the original Corey Hart song from the 80s this samples has been re-used in sooooo many recent electro and hip-hop tracks. Skepta hardly adds anything to it either with his lame-arse 'roses are red' chorus as well. I was bored of those kinds of verses when I was five. :sleep:
