Rude Kid, Firstly where did you get your name from?
Haha good question, basically like in school i use to be rude all the time to teachers and people and all that, one day some teacher called me a "RUDE KID" and i thought that sounds alrite but obviously i thought that after i nearly got kicked out, but i kept it. Big up the headteacher that came up with the name.. haha
What ends are you from?
East london still.. Dun kno
Growing up there was there alot of musical influences around you?
Like i wouldnt say there was alot of musical influences, but everyone did do music or thought they were big at mcing,djing,producing but no one was really good so therefore i had 2 influence myself.
Who / Where do you think you got the inspiration to make music?
My inspiration is from listening to alot of diffrent types of music, i can listen to anyting and get inspiration, also everyday life like i can be going college and i could be tired but i would come home and make a banger and alot of big producers that make bangers keep me on my toes cos' to me its all competion, everyone wants to be the best or everyone wants to have the best beat, hense why i called one of my tunes "THE BEST"...haha nah im joking.
What got you into making grime music?
Erm..listening to people like old Nasty Crew , Wiley, Rolldeep, like everyone else at that time i use to run home jus 2 record their sets and listen 2 them for the whole week until there was another set. So yh it was basically them crews even ruff squad cos' the tunes they used to make had a big influence on me cos' they use to make crazy melodies with mad instruments... so i always wanted to do that.
Do you make other types of music or are you focusing on the Grime scene fully?
Grime fully, but obviously i can make them slow tunes (like 'So Nice') and that but to me its all 140 tempo its all grime. If you listened to what Ghetto said on Westwood's show you would know he was talkin sense..
You have produced hits including 'So Nice' for Ironik and worked with the likes of Wiley, Ghetto, Griminal, Pmoney, and Badness to name a few, how did you come about linking up with those people?
I really like working with them people i dont even no, its like more and more of my tunes were gettin played on radio stations/raves and obviously them artist must of been thinking "rah these tunes are hard" so they holla at me, i dont no how they get my number though but some people like Pmoney he knew about my beats before my name was getting more up there and same with Griminal. Big up Maximum,Spyro and all the other dj's that are banging out my riddims cos' thats whats making me, so thanks its mad cos' like no one helped me or i didnt no any of them because they lived in my ends or wot not, alot of producers get big because a certain person in the game will bring them in...not me, i worked hard 2 get were i am and still i am working, there is so much i want to achieve right now.
What do you think about the whole Niche Bassline movement at the moment?
I think its good uno bruv, ive tried making one of them tunes still, like the bassline movement seems to be humble and bare girls like it aswell which is a good ting..(Laugh) but yeah man im feelin it, its like hype grime mixed with dubstep bass and some chopped up singing, thats what i think anyway. But big up all them bassline people up its all music.
Do you think there has been a lack of grime club bangers recently? are you possibly the saviour of club grime music?
You no what JP i think there has been alot of bangers recently uno,like Maniac is coming with fire all the time, Dot Rotten is probably one of the best right now all his beats are bangers.. and me well the tunes that are here are doing it i guess...dont u agree? i dont no if im the saviour, i would like to think so soon though, but im workin hard.
Do you think vynil is deadout now?
Right now yeah it is dead only cos' of MSN DJ's and them leakers/tune swappers, like once some has a tune for free on cd, why are they gonna go and buy it on vynil when they play CD's anyway, thats how they must see it i guess , but yeah man if it was live i would of released something time ago but now djs just play cd's on a set with illegal tunes (meaning they downloaded it) but i hope all that changes for the big 2008.
Do you have any ep's or any other releases coming out anytime soon?
Yeah man deffo a instrumental ep is coming, its in talks right now, im working on my production mixtape which is called "Are you ready" that will feature alot of big mc's and singers,so far its looking better then some producers mixtape's and it aint even finished. Im also just doing bare mixtape projects,im workin on Griminal's mixtape so look out for that, im workin on a soundtrack for a film which i cant name but hopefully my tune will get picked and it will be on there and yeah man just bare mixptape's im producing for,i've made alot of tunes recently and some people won't even probably know i produced it but look out for alot.
What do you have planned for the year 08 and plans for the future?
This is what i have planned for 08, Work harder,Takeover and putting in the work. thats all i can say, i dont wanna say much more cos'im not one of them guys that just says something and dont do it.
