Shout out skeppy

Lol exactly

It’s not 1964, we don’t need to wait for him to be on the Ed Sullivan show to know who Skepta is… literally been reading about him on KTT since I was in high school

How is this not hip hop

English niggas trying too hard to be different yet again

MC's

Grime came from UK garage

They're rapping but they're not hip hop if that makes sense

Oim frahm da Eukay but I’m still hahd

MC = hip hop

Hip hop came from sound systems block parties etc

It's a cultural label as much as it is a genre

Grime came from UK garage

They're both rapping but they're separate

No that doesnt make sense & MC is also HipHop & Reggae which Hiphop also comes from

They do this all the time lol

"They Rapping but it aint Rap but yall that like Rap should listen to it"

Rapping doesn't equal hip hop

I appreciate your concern but I’ll be fine bro

Grime doesn't descend from hip hop though

Uk hip hop, road rap and uk drill do however

Yes it does lol where does Rapping come from bro because it didnt come from UK

Its roots is obviously attached to NYC in the way they Rap

No one started mc ing over uk garage beats because of us hip hop

They share the common ancestor of sound system culture and mc ing sure, but its like a cousin to hip hop rather than hip hop itself

only good thing uk has brought to this world is uk garage and grime

Hiphop only existed in US for a long time lol its literally a US made genre

Where did it come from then, the rapping not the beat style

This makes no sense & you guys are always vague about it

KTT doesn’t f*** with grime. Don’t bother, I’ve tried

Finally some sweet agreement with you

Grime uses MCing but it isn't hip-hop

Same way dub music or jungle music can use MCing

MCs

Are you gonna call reggae deejaying “rapping” and “hip hop” because garage and grime mcing, and hip hop rapping came from it?

It’s my favorite genre behind hip hop. Probably tied with jungle

I’m going to London for the first time this fall and gonna check out the grime exhibit at the Museum of London and catch a couple shows too. They let you see the basement Jammers Birthday set was made in

Conversation kinda futile anyway because outside of sets, grime is dead in the mainstream

Young grime artists got barely any following and the OGs have terrible workrates or have changed style
