I thought Mercury was supposed to be for new talent? I was still at school when I first heard him and I'm in my 30s now.. That tune a banger though
Newly recognised I suppose. Grime has been on the scene since the early days of Bashy and Devilman etc. Skepta has been around a while, but most of his early stuff is just Risky Roadz youtube stuff.
Nope, it's simply a 'best album of the year' thing, hence why Bowie was nominated this year for Blackstar and Radiohead for Moon Shaped Pool. They do like to try and recognise new and alternative music though.
Anybody else into the broken beat scene that came out of West London ? These lads are from Manchester, but the mix is Domu, straight up broken beat. @Spurlock @Skylarker
