Reasons why grime is better than 6 months ago

['nuum general]

1) There is at least two big sets every week, rather than once half decent one a month

2) New beats have more bass & sound more grimey

3) More raves, there seems more flyers around and more raves coming up

4) Free mix cds put out are better than the ones for sale

Whats peoples thoughts?

number 4 isn't a good thing

['nuum general]

[Eric Cantona]

2nd half of last year it was bad, Grime was at an all time low i think

Recently its getting good, Sunday Rinse Fm is alot.

Just lacking mixtapes, month gone and like 2 mixtapes out? not good enough i dont think

Its looking promising this year becasue thers alot of good shit coming out, and i mean ALOT!

for sure I'm noticing that, but there's so many MCs and producers there's still alot of diversity in the scene.
6 months ago still had it's share of sets still(even if they were fake),Rinse 'banned' grime soon after that didnt they?

personally i'm well up for these free mix cd's...if they wanna give em away let em! We are thankful...it's also a clever way 4 MCs to build up fan loyalty and get them buying their next mixtape proper

true stories

only a watered down version of grime could ever consistently make the charts.

quite like the odd mainstream release to get new listeners

[G.K.]

innit. i think if grime went commercial another scene would just take its place tho. because we'd see all these people sporting grime as a trend when we've been repping it from day and we'd just start again with something else. lets face it.
