hype

[Nine Bar]

i like proper a proper artist, which can do all of the above

[Quality Control]

..mostly hype but i like when MCs can be versatile and do a bit of meaningful(i don't call it conscious because that has strong connotations of backpack rap) and hype.. not love songs tho, don't really mix with grime IMO..

[Heckz]

hype

violent hype? hyping off your own rep? or just shouting hype.. or all of the above lol

[Llelo]

barz about stabbing manz til dere eyez bleed

[Carter]

Never heard one versatile Grime MC lol

They can only do hype tracks still.........

[Spock]

I like concept.
But I also like everything else. Just concept appeals to me a lot.

Bars which are hype but also aren't full of shit

see: Trim, D Double & (some) Wiley for examples

call me dumb if u want but.. wha do u mean by backpack

..well it originally just meant underground/alternative hip-hop.. but now it basically means nerd-rap.. alot of "conscious" hip-hop is backpack.. and i'm just applying it to grime..

ooh alrite alrite

bruv just do the CD, with what you want on it and how you wanna do it

If you have a certain style, you should be faithful to that. Nothing wrong with experimentation, but if you try to over-experiment it might not have the effect you want

Not everyone will like it regardless so you might as well do what you feel is best

bit of everything 2bh

['nuum general]

hype, emcees with decent punchlines

[sekkle]

Mostly hype, but not just mindless hype. Someone who can hype themself in such a creative way that proves it case-in-point. Also meaningful lyrics are good but it's dangerous water since it can sound corny.

[Grimes]

don't emcee

LOL I swear some people don't know what they want from Grime anymore, regardless of what people want from a Grime artist bruv you have to be able to flip it. It aint about focusing on one aspect of being an MC becoming good at it but not so good at all other aspects. It depends on what kind of artist you want to be though man.

[adidasgrandad]

i want mc's with character. iv had enough of these wannabe myspace mc's who watch too much channel u with boring voices.
