Comment: Tove Lo, Brian Jonestown, Nada Surf, all ok but whatever, There is only one that matters, he is the King of Grime, and Grime is ten times more exciting than Trap. It has taken years for grime to take center stage in the UK but it hasn’t happened here and it should. Tinie Tempeh nearly made it , Skepta’s last album was terrific, Wretch 32 is brilliant as rap gets. but if Dizzee Rascal isn’t the best, than it is Wiley. A new album is an event, and this is an event with a backstory. Wiley called the album pointless and cancelled its release back in late July, only to change his name one day later. Drama on drama, how anticipated are we???
