Ruff Sqwad - Las Vegas

It seems the veteran grime crew Ruff Sqwad are back, a few weeks back we saw a video to the brand new track 'This Side', then we hear that the crew are currently working on the third edition of their 'Guns & Roses' series, now we see yet another brand new video, this time for the track entitled 'Las Vegas.'

The title of the track and the video seem to go hand in hand, as the video was filmed in the gambling city of America, at the same time the crew was out there filming for Tinchy Stryders' new track 'Off The Record'.

Check the video for the track below and also the behind the scenes video for Tinchy Styders' 'Off The Record' video.

Lioness - Don't Tell Me [Official Video]

After recently releasing her free mixtape entitled 'Roarness' Lioness drops the official video for her track entitled 'Don't Tell Me'. The video, directed by Greg Bond, was filmed at Bump, the weekly friday club night held at Plan B in Brixton.

Lioness chooses a dubstep production for this track, something we havent heard from her before, and although it would have been nice to hear this over a grime beat instead, it seems she doesn't want to be told what to spit on.

Remember the Lioness mixtape is out now which you can download for free here http://www.mediafire.com/?zd10tvjq110y7c5

Logan Sama After Hours feat. Manga, Young Kye & Nafe Smallz [Video]

J2K and Scratchy is set for release on the 25th and to promote it the Roll Deep mc came down to the Kiss FM studio with Luton based mc's Young Kye and Nafe Smallz, for Logan Sama's afterhours set.

Dizzle Kid- Do What I Want EP Out Now x Freestyle Video

The Lava Unit mc Dizzle Kid has finally released his own project, entitled 'Do What I Want' EP. This massive release contains six straight up grime tracks, with vocal features from Bruza and Mayhem and productions from Bless Beats, Faze Miyake and more.

It seems were seeing more and more free downloads lately, which I can sort of understand with an mc like Dizzle Kid, seeing as he's been quiet in the scene lately. Although in my opinion this EP, and many others lately that have been released for free, could certainly pull off an official release, as it contains some solid tracks featured on it.

To help promote the release, Dizzle Kid also dropped a video on the same day, giving you a run through of the EP itself and also dropping a freestyle at the end as well.

'Do What I Want EP' is out right now and is available to download here

2.Different Wave

Kozzie Vs. Sox Rematch Lord Of The Mics 3 [Video]

After the choke from Sox during his and Kozzie's Lord Of The Mics clash, theres been a lot of rumours and speculations flying around as to what actually happened. We then heard a lot of people claim that Kozzie only won the clash by default and for no other reason.

So the Blue Borough mc caught up with Lord Of The Mics, to prove to everyone that he's still willing to clash and has confirmed the rematch with the Brum mc, hopefully this time we'll get to see the full clash from both mc's.

Logan Sama Kiss FM Family Tree 12 Sept 11 [Video]

On last week's Logan Sama Kiss FM show we saw the whole Family Tree collective pass through, consisting of Merky Ace,MIK,Ego,Shifman and TKO, to which each mc blessed the mic for nearly 30 minutes of grime at it's finest. As a crew and as solo mc's, each member is certainly making a name for themselves as we see here as they all showcase the best of their abilities.

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.

This time Hollowman sends for the Canadian grime mc Tre Mission in his latest Hype Sessions freestyle for Lord Of The Mics. After already hearing both of these mc's feature on Lord Of The Mics video's so far and both coming with very strong bars, this is set to be one of the most exciting clashes out of them all. Check the video below.

D Double E - Lyrical Farda [Official Viral Video]



"I'm That Lyrical Farda, Name A Mc Thats Spits Harder"

Considered by many as 'one of the best' in the scene and hailing the title of grime's most legendary mic man, the Newham Generals mc drops another video for the second single from his most recent release.
This time we see an official viral video, which is obviously working after already receiving over 13,000 views in less than a week on YouTube, for the epic track entitled 'Lyrical Farda' which is taken from the release 'Bluku Bluku EP'.

The video features clips features throughout the mc's whole career, including studio sessions, radio sets, including Jammer's birthday set back in the day on DeJa Vu FM, and raves that the mc has shutdown before in the past.

Merky Ace also brought fellow crew members Shifman & TKO and the Family Tree trio went in over the newest in grime with one half of the Newham Generals Footsie.

Big up Aaron Hanson (Hanson's House) for the filming as usual.

9 Milli Major - Lord Of The Mic [Video]

The Bloodline member 9 Milli Major showcases the video for the brand new track 'Lord Of The Mic'. Just lately we've seen a lot from this mc and it's becoming more apparent after each track the amount he's progressing.

In the track 9 Milli Major expresses his views on Lord Of The Mics, stating he doesn't need to be involved as he's already proved himself before. We also hear sly sends for Trim throughout the track and even Nico Lindsay at one point as well.

Watch the video below, filmed and edited by Listen Up London. Enjoy

Hollowman Jendor - Beat Keeps Screaming [Official Net Video]

The OG'z mc releases the second video for a track taken from his mixtape 'When It Rains It Storms', with the track entitled 'Beat Keeps Screaming'. After recently also dropping the video for 'Gutter Sound' and holding two launch party's for the release, it shows how much hard work Jendor's put into this project.

The track featured in this video is certainly one of the highlights from the mixtape, with it's monster dubstep production, so it's only right that we now get to see visuals for it as well. The video, filmed by We Goin In, also features clips taken from the first launch party, that was held in Oxford and we also see apperances from mc's Kozzie and Blacks.

Dimples - Bad Attitude [Video]

The GFam member Dimples releases a brand new video for his track 'Bad Attitude' taken from the highly acclaimed mixtape 'Last Laugh Vol.3'. Dimples's work-rate along with the rest of his crew this year as been far higher than most others in the scene and it seems he plans to see out the year like he started it.

The video below, filmed by director Alex Sosa, is a great accompaniment to the track that sees the North London mc flow over the grimey production with his usual punchline filled lyrics.

Remember that 'Last Laugh Vol.3' is out now available to purchase digitally through iTunes and Amazon. Physical copies are also available through www.mindofgrime.com

The Scorcher & Roachee Interviews (Lord Of The Mics) [Video]

Last week we saw an interview from Scorcher, filmed by Street Wise TV, with the 'Skywalker' mc addressing the send from Roachee in his Lord Of The Mics 'Hype Session'. He confirms that he does not want to clash on Lord Of The Mics and then even claims that after the 'Hype Sessions' video aired, Roachee even rang him to apologise.

Anyway, a few days later and Roachee takes a look at the interview, he has been mentioned in, after Jammer points it out to him on Twitter. As you can imagine the Sith Lord mc is not happy after hearing claims that he rang up Scorcher apologising, so got in contact with Lord Of The Mics, to film a video, to get his side of the story across. He states that he would never dream of ringing up to apologise and makes it clear that he does "Not Like Liars"!

Watch below to see both mc's view on the situation.

M.I.K - Street Starz Spotlight Freestyle [Video]
