KIDS of GRIME X Flava D's SPECIAL Freestyles

Kids of Grime is back with a second series of freestyles. After Rude Kid, Kids of Grime has decided to collaborate with one of the most-talked producers in the scene, Flava D. With her filthy and dark production, Flava D's work rate has been impressive in the past few months and it's not surprising that some of the hardest Grime MCs have jumped on her beats.

Here are the first two episodes of KOG X Flava D's Special freestyles.

Discarda & Dispute - @discarda

He rhymes on, rhymes on and so does Dispute.

Ego (Family Tree) - @Ego_FT

Aim and bang! Ego never fails to deliver bags of hype even of a quick freestyle.

Don't forget that 'Actually Active' is out now on iTunes, Amazon and all major digital retailers.

Look out for the forthcoming Kids of Grime X Flava D's freestyles. All I'm going to say is HARD!

Mixclique Vision - @RoyalTMusic Set at Cable - 13.08

In the past few days everyone has been talking about the memorable night at Cable last Saturday and, with the DJ sets available to download already, it's hard to decide who hyped most the crowd among DOK, Royal T, Swindle, Champion, Elijah & Skilliam, Terror Danjah and Kode 9. 

Although, Royal T is definitely in my top 3. Opening up with a remix of Wild Cherry's 'Play That Funky Music', Royal T got the Cable ravers dropping some next skanks to Orangeade VIP and carried on with his "epicality" throughout his set.


As if it wasn't enough, Merky Ace and Ego added up extra hype when they touched the mic. If you don't believe me, well have a look yourself.
