That's how life goes
Are tunes that I can relate to straight on a level and are different to your usual grime tracks.
bare of his other bars, his productions- large man.
We've been looking for an all rounder for ages. Im certain this topic has been made before, but after a few beers me and my brother were just surfing youtube playing Rottz, and he is a merkers. What do you reckon?

Compare the ages.
Dot Rotten can perform a very very good hook, something Wiley has lacked and I'm one of Wiley's biggest fans.

dots hooks >>>>>>>>> goodz hooks
certain man need to call badness next time they need a hook
I think Dot Rotten is a genuine all-rounder, although I think he still has improvement left in his MCing.
Always preferred him as a producer, and for me he's easily one of the best producers in grime. He has a distinct sound yet is versatile, and the large majority of his beats still have a grime element even when incorporating mellower sounds, such as 10% of my Day/Life and Wildlife.
Andre maybe you prefer TITB because it sounds so much more raw, I dunno. R.I.P Young Dot does sound so much more polished, but it's still sick, best mixtape of '08 for me.
R.I.P is a very good example of the more polished grime music right now, TITB from a few years ago

Dot is top selected in MC and producer, he's definitely levelling up nicely in the scene. but in the same breathe as Wiley is a bit much tbh, Wiley as an all rounder including war, power and the rest of the obvious things still beats Dot. until he wars evry other head in the scene and starts to takeover (he's still got time....A LOT of it), he will not level will imo

I'd argue that R.I.P is one of the best grime CDs of last year and should have won best CD. If that doesn't mean hes very good I don't know what does.

I agree.
I just think Dot's a good song-writer really. It helps when you produce, but he seems to have good direction, something like OG Season wouldn't have been what it was without Dot's contribution, no send to other members of the OG camp but it's true

touching on what fullygrown said about rip young dot, i see it as the best current representations of grime, although i've seen it described as hiphop on here... it's polished but still dark. i prefer titb but ryd is my favourite of 08 for sure.
dot's been in my top 5 for years now producer and mc wise. c/s on the need for more personality though, not a major thing for me but if he wants exposure outside of the grime scene then definitely.

he seems to have plenty of personality (holding hands in a circle and becoming God for instance), but his music just doesn't really channel it

i think his music does.
Theres some UK rappers that would be proud of "used to be mine", its almost actor worthy, but in musical form.

I agree with the versatility, sometimes he can be a bit monotone. Was listening to the opening on RIP today, and the flat delivery made it a poor start tbh.
But what's personality? You can't compare him to Wiley, who seems more exuberant and outspoken in his music, but Dot does seem to be a character, even if it's a self-destructive one sometimes.
Think it could be partly the reason why I rate his introspective tunes so highly.

Yeah Dot can spray, just needs to use his voice more and learn how to attack each track differently.
R.I.P. Young Dot was good ,but started to sound like one track after a while.
I personally think that Dot and P-money should work with each other more as they both have what the other lacks imo.
He's not on the same level as Wiley for hype/personality perhaps, but I think he makes some better tunes than him at a much much younger age. If Dot progresses there is no reason why he couldn't be the guy to overtake Wiley.

he's another one, like p-money who's only like 20/21? he's still young even in the short current lifespan of a grime emcee.
one thing with dot, especially on used to be mine, is i never know whether i want him to keep up the autotune thing; making the tune more his. or hollering at a proper good singer; making it more listenable for the general public and getting the amount of listeners it deserves.

So u want him to make corny mixtapes like bashy just to prove he's versatile? Smh
Listen to his productions he has a vast range and understanding of moods and sounds. He's only two mixtapes deep to be fair
i agree with Retro freak RE: versatility and personality. no sweet boy tunes or wifey tunes, happy tunes or anything yet
but he's not following a set formula, which is the impression I get from the structure of a lot of mixtapes, ie must have one sweetboy tune, one serious/social comment tune, couple greazy tracks etc
If it's your strength than cool - a lot of sweetboy tunes hasn't done Sryder too badly.
But his angle ir approach to tunes is what makes him original - 'I'm Just Being Me' is a good example, he doesn't say 'oh dear, no-one likes me', but he changes it slightly to make it more reflecting, whether he'll get his chance to 'break through' etc

Lyrically i think no one really touches him. And then you got the beats and producing. I heard him spit Coke and Sugar alot slower on the BlackMagikTV freestyle and each line is fucked. He is probably my favourite artist and i think he makes really good songs. I would like him to go on radio abit more though.
I just like his lyrics, them being clever compared to other basic stuff that's around. I also think he see's the world differently like due to his disorder and stuff, makes him really good.

Rottens a unique artists in the sense that hes not afraid to sing, or vent his emotions about certain subjects while still coming with dirty beats and bars.

I can see the comparisons to wiley i.e they both make beats and bars but after that the comparison is pretty dead.
for real they have nothing in common musically/lyrically i dont think.
they cater to different intersts generally.

I'd add,
1. Both are slightly bipolar and know how to drum up forum controversy.
2. Both capable of a lot creatively, but without the right team behind them they become reckless and are their own worst enemies.

this is the most pointless post ever. how are you gonna think he is good or get into his hype if your not even gonna listen to his music? that makes no sense. titb is a free download and it will be better then every thing else you payed for **or most likely typed "safe" for**
No it isn't pointless, I haven't gotten into the Dot hype and then I gave my reason for it - I haven't bought any of his CDs. I never said I expected to get into the Dot hype by not listening to his music.
From the time I naturally said "I haven't bought any of his CDs" and not "I haven't listened to any" means that I most likely buy CDs and not typed "safe" for.
To be honest, when you got a job 6.99 is like pennies to me rather than others most likely starving themselves saving up their lunch money. Or even typing "safe" for.

i think dot is overly fucked and well worthy of all the hype/praise he gets.
i can't wait for the next installment of RR and the album.
Making sweet boy tunes, wifey songs, uptempo dance/electro joints.... it's not that. What Dot does he does well and imo he should keep at it and just hone his skills/craft.

He's good definately, RIP Young Dot was money well spent. I don't think he's up there on a Ghetto, Doogz, Wiley level though.
Needs to vary his tone of voice as sometimes it gets a bit monotonous and I agree with the above comment about beats. Some of them are absolutely fucked, then some are filler.

Theres some UK rappers that would be proud of "used to be mine", its almost actor worthy, but in musical form.

dot has something about his tunes that make you feel....
hard to explain but e.g used to be mine - gives u that depressing feeling and easy to relate to...
i think dot can become as big, if not bigger than wiley....look at wiley when he was 20 compared to dot now that hes 20....BIG DIFFERENCE

Probably my favourite MC/Producer. Tracks off R.I.P Young Dot & This Is The Beggining still get played to this day.
Definatley has the potential to become a legend in the scene, his beats mirror his lyrics perfectly, emotional.

tbh, Chipmunk was on Westwood's Radio one show even before he had a 1xtra slot.
It is also questionable about Chipmunk's popularity before wiley which you are affirming. Chipmunk had been on Logan's show before Wiley brought him in you know.
Chipmunk was well known in North as well, His first mixtape was hosted by Sway. I've known about him since his shoddy crew days on heat fm.

Dot Rotten is the biological father of grime.
dot rotten ain't the next wiley but lately he's fucking impressing me big time.
he has the essence of what grime is about, he is a talented spitter but the beats he makes esp have that randomness and gully energy in them. the beats with the random bleeps and drum patterns, the cleverand gully bars etc etc
the people that still have this are dizzee even on maths and english there was that essence of what i'm sayin, trim, newham generals and dot rotten.

even so that really aint the point because when you look at the 'best' spitters to have blessed grime...none of them are masters with flow...wiley would just be another mc if he didnt fund grime...could of easily been another mc....look at dizzee, titch, kano...none of which are on par with most mcs lyrically nowdays...grime has changed...its alot more metaphoric and alot deeper than it used to be...

shocking. wiley has a completely fucked flow. if youve heard him since pay as you go days surely you would know he could never have been another MC. all those MCs you listed have sick flows. dot is good but hes monotone. too much of him and id fall asleep. its his fucked beats which keep me listening.
and who gives a shit about deep metaphors? grime is about flow and hype...
Grimes

do people know what monotone means?
i'm sorry if dot voice isn't as mesmirising like wileys shit.
safe to people saying about flow and hype init and fuck lyrics.

Lol Dot hasn't mastered barring or production yet, don't get me wrong, he's one of the best in the scene, but to say he's mastered it is a big statement.
I'm expecting a lot from Something Out Of Nothing, it could be the CD of the year IMO, only threats I can see to this is Ghetts' album & P Money's next CD.
As for the P Money vs. Dot Rotten debate, for bars P Money is way ahead, but Dot makes better tunes, so it's hard to say who's better?
Lol @ you saying Wiley would be any other MC if he didn't find grime, clueless guy. As for Kano & Dizzee, they've both moved away from grime, so you can't really say they'd be any other MC either in this day & age, I believe if they stayed grime throughout their career's they'd be on Wiley's level/status.

it's changing into something that already exists and is already far more advanced than "grime" could ever be
it's fair enough evolving while remaining individual with a unique selling point. but that's not the case

To say Dot is changing the whole scene single handed is ott, but he's definatley part of the new wave of MC's/producers who will take over the scene in the next few years.

my point was, the only thing you did right in that sentence was the spelling, hence the clapping. you owned yourself with the syntax. if youre going to try and par me, at least try and construct a sentence correctly. try again?

Lol I don't think grime can evolve into another genre, grime is grime, the name of the genre represents the music for what it is. How is one guy going to change the whole scene? Ok, Wiley founded grime, but it wouldn't of been nothing if the D Double's, Kano's, Dizzee's, didn't jump on it IMO. I can't see Dot creating a new genre when his music is grime anyway.

ye definatly, ur missin da point Dot is not doing it by himself, but he is part of this evolution, however he has mor influence than many others do. Therefore not evolving it on his own,
