OK firstly ears ruined him in their clash,
secondly i swear his mixtape was meant to be out b4 gehtto gospel
thirdly hes just shit and i have no idea why he is in the movement or grime at all. He ruins the latest devs set on westwood and i cnt stand him!
Any1 actually rate him or know of anything positive that hes done?
or is it purely the fact that hes ghettos younger?

Best I heard him was on Ghetto's bday fuck radio set. And it was still pretty miserable. His voice is jarring.

He was the only good thing about that Devlin set on Westwood. Devlin was utter shite - he sounded like he'd snorted an 8 ball and stayed up all night reading a dictionary.

lol he is still shit though.
I dont know what tune your talking about but its hardly a new concept, and i doubt he tried to approach it in a particularly original or different way.

Your obviously a fan of swag mc's like Terminator.
Thats not me I dont rate people like Lightning, Jammer, Blacks, N.E and all those type of guys they are all boring, have shit bars or a jarring flow or voice.
Its just my opinion so dont go round making assumptions like that like say your some grime god.

I'll admit if an mc is good straight up I was watching some yutes from Newport in Wales the other day and I said yeah one of thems got bars hes pretty good man like its nuffin I dont care who you are or where your from if your a good mc your a good mc standard.
Lightning is just not dat.

22nd February '08, 04:22 PM
Lightning is okay i guess, he isn't as bad as some people make him out to be i personally just think people are peeved by the fact that he has been brought in since he was about 13. I think ghetto has now realised that lightning will never reach the potential that he ghetto previously thought and is starting to associate himself more with devlin

22nd February '08, 05:07 PM
i think he's alright
he's not good
but he's not shit
i can listen to him
i like him on that don't lose stripes

22nd February '08, 05:55 PM
he isnt as bad as people make out. but far from as good as he makes himself out to be. i think he spits too much self glorification and with what hes achieved thus far it just isnt justified.
he is decent on the fuck radio sets.

You know I actually liked the tune "you don't want it" by lightning but thats only because of the chorus and Brutal carried him. lightning is rubbish imo.
Retrofreak
23rd February '08, 09:30 AM
Lightning is a regular MC, that's just NOT important.
Were only talking about him ,because of his affiliation with Ghetts.
So far his brought nothing to the table in way of originality or style.
Maybe he'll grow in the near future ,but right now his just Ghetto's hype-man imo.
