    Everyone is so used to American Hip-Hop , that UK rap is so underrated internationally. Grime really sounds fresh and cool. More people should tune in.

    "Grime is the Punk of this generation" Interesting analogy, I was a Punk and Grime certainly pushes the same buttons and the DIY ethic is there, the rebellion is there and the cultural placement is as important! I'm 56 and I love Grime and Dubstep! Been bursting with creativity from day one and it still has so much potential in regard to new directions etc! Long may it thrive!

    I swear on my life from 2000 when I first heard Oh No from So Solid Crew it was not Grime or UK Garage. It was new. I had no idea that it would get this far. I remember when people use to say there is no money in doing UK Grime. Now there is a business documentary from GQ of all platforms.

      CapiTen10 grime isn't dead to the old heads that keep it alive but these young hipsters jumping on it are a fucking plague I see em all over with their quiffs and man bags! 🙈

      lol grime is alive and kicking it might not be popular everywhere but the grimescene in birmingham for example is active. I completely disagree about it being a hipster thing, but then again it might be like that where u live

      birmingham is always years behind london. what is the most popular mc out of brum right now? mist, a rapper. 'road rap' and even these shitty afrobeats artists like kojo funds get way more play in hood raves then grime.

      Arch Wrestler I’m from America. I can see the similarities especially in how each started. But the musical form sounds different.

      grime is a way different tempo than you'd ever find in hip hop. no americans are rapping on a 140 beat. the drum patterns are different, the lyrical flows are different, the whole culture is different. not to mention the pirate radio side of it. that said they are 100% parallel

    Culturally yours?Yes. But still a sub-genre to american hiphop. Trap music is inherently a southern culture but still a sub genre.

    You cats didn’t invent nothing. It’s a derivative of American Rap music that started in America in the Bronx. I give credit to Jamaican brothers, West Indian brothers, Arab brothers and Africans. Because if they didn’t adjust the music and start Grime, UK Hip Hop or garage. The pale faces would try to spit bars over Harry Potter flute sounding music lol.
    The Americans are the leaders of music whether or not our blood relatives in the UK accept us or not.
    USA Hip Hop is still the truth!

      The double time flows, the DJ's, Mc's, clashing, sending, reloads, rewinds, the rapping (cos it isn't singing is it?) it's all copied from different genres
