Kids Of Grime + Jammer P.A at Infart Festival Italy 2011 [Video]

Verena Stefanie, who runs Kids Of Grime, has recently been labelled the 'Grime Embassador' of Italy and quite rightly so as well as she's been putting in mad work lately helping spread the sound of our scene to Italy and other European countries alike.

The 'Infart Festival' is a three day urban art and music festival, that takes place in Italy. Verena saw this as the perfect opportunity to, as she quotes "Officially Showcase Grime To Italy" by hosting an exhibition of her photography there and even bringing along Jammer to perform a live P.A in front of a crowd of one thousand.

Watch the video below to see how the event went down.

Fuda Guy Kids Of Grime Freestyle [Video]

After not hearing much from Fuda Guy lately, the Ruff Sqwad member drops a freestyle over a Flava  D instrumental for Kids Of Grime TV. Apart from hearing Fuda on Roachee's new release 'Roach Material Vol.1' this is the first time we've heard anything in a while, so lets hope that changes and we start to hear more again from the mc. Check the video below.

Rival - Talk That Official Video x Kids Of Grime Interview [Video]

The hardest working mc in grime is back yet again with new material, this time with an official video, filmed and edited by Lockdown Records, for the track 'Talk That'. We all know Rival as an mc who's bars are filled full of violence and rage, but this track takes a different approach to what we've been used to hearing and instead explains the reasons behind his lyrics.

Just lately I've heard a lot of people saying that Rival is one of the best in the scene right now. Well in my opinion versatility is one of the things that separates you from the rest and puts you in the top mc category and with tracks like this Rival is doing exactly that.

You can hear Rival talk more in depth about this in the interview below, that he recently had with Remel for Kids Of Grime TV and also talk of upcoming releases.

Merky Ace - Catch Up (Prod. By Faze Miyake) [Video]

The Family Tree mc is quickly working his way up the ranks, with more and more people now considering him as one as the scenes top mc's. His 'Blue Battlefield' mixtape featured banger after banger and helped establish his name in grime.

Since his release, we've never been short of new material from either him or the rest of the Family Tree crew for that matter. This week we see a net video, filmed and edited by Aaron Hanson (Hanson's House), for his 'Catch Up' freestyle produced by Faze Miyake.

Check it out below.

Rival - Music Is My Life (Prod. By Rude Kid) [Free Download]

The 'Hardest Working' mc in grime is back with another track this week entitled 'Music Is My Life' and this time it's up for free download. The track, produced by Rude Kid, is a much deeper track than what we're used to hearing from the 'Gun Reload' mc and certainly shows how versatile Rival can be. This is now the second time we've heard Rival, team up with Rude Kid to express his views on the music scene, after the recent track entitled 'Why' which also features Roachee & Stutta.

Rival-Gangster Freestyle [Video]

After the recent success with Z Dot's 'Gangster' instrumental and the currently released EP which contains features from a dozen different mc's on the track, there's one mc we didn't hear over this beat and to be honest I think it surprised people that they didn't.....that mc is Rival.

Well what a shame it is that Rival didn't feature on the EP, because this has to be one of the best (if not the best) version there is to date. Rival absolutely murders this freestlye, using the sample from the beat in conjunction with the hook and even sending for Z Dot himself, which we can only assume is to do with not being featured on the track in the first place. Having a mc send for you on your own instrumental, surely that takes the definition of par to a next level?

RD-Radio (Produced By Sukh Knight) [Video]

"IT WAS MY CHOICE TO PUT IT ON RINSE, BUT I'VE GOT 1XTRA STATION CALLED KISS"

If you haven't heard of RD by now then where have you been. As part of the Nationality team, which also includes Jammin,Mr A,Blaze,A.K and Guyver, the East London Barking mc has risen quickly through the ranks, which success from his free mixtape 'Hear Me Out'.

I saw that his video had dropped the other day but during a busy weekend I didn't have time to check it out straight away. Well I can certainly say that I was not expecting the massive hit that I just listened to. Filled full of clever sing-along bars over Sukh Knights monster dubstep production, RD expresses his love for radio sets which we've been reminded lately, thanks to Diesel and Deja Vu FM, really is the essence of this scene.

The video, directed by Profits from Water Media TV, compliments the track very well and I have to say is probably one of the most creative video's I've seen from the grime scene lately.
