Urban Grime Scene - Anyone know of it? Like it?

[NekkLe]

The UK Grime Scene is an up and comming genre of British Rap. Some popular artists include:

#Dizzee Rascal
#Lethal Bizzle
#Kano
#The Streets
#The Mitchell Brothers

Its very popular in London and its moving around to Birmingham & Manchester.

To find this type of music, its hard to because most of it is underground, some artists believe its better to keep it underground because it may ruin the whole UK Grime Scene.
The artists above are making UK Grime mainstream to invite new listeners and also to promote UK Grime to a wider audience.

Its popular in London so I'll presume that people on the Forum who live in London might know what I'm talking about. But to people who don't know about it, I'd just like to share this with you :p

#Dizzee Rascal- He occasionally does sets (goes on radio ) and mcs freestyles but his basically the guy who got a record lable and people don't really listen to him.
#Lethal Bizzle- Yeah lethal b is good.
#Kano- Like again his left the 'mcing on radios' his just on the record lable.
#The Streets- Not the main grime
#The Mitchell Brothers- Not the main grime.

[issaa.]
