As of late, I have been listening to Skepta. I wouldn't say that I was a specialist in grime or that listening to grime was my thing, but I decided upon expanding my music tastes to gain some further knowledge on the subject.
As someone who is studying Music Technology and Radio Broadcasting, I would say that it is important to have a wide range of musical tastes.
Truth be told, I have been listening to the radio station Capital Xtra as of late and they played Skepta's hit song 'Shutdown' one day. After I heard this 'banger' of a tune, I decided to listen to some more of his music. With that being said, here is the current songs I currently have on repeat!
Skepta - Shutdown
From the album Konnichiwa (2015)
Okay, so I've heard this song before, but I've never properly listened to the song and its lyrics. What can I say about it? It's catchy as hell, especially the chorus. It also has that kinda vibe to it that just makes you want to go crazy, rave and jump till the roof falls off.
Skepta ft D Double E and ASAP Nast - Ladies Hit Squad
This song has a more laid back vibe to it. It's slow and sexy and the first verse in particular is firreeee. I particularly like the rhymes which makes it easy to learn the verses.
Bruno Mars - 24k Magic
(2016)
I love this song. It's upbeat, funky and very reminiscent of a song Bruno Mars was featured in called Uptown Funk. This style suits Bruno Mars perfectly and the video captures the essence of this song.
WSTRN - In2
(2015)
This is one of those songs that didn't grab me the first time I heard it, but the more I heard it the more it grew on me and before I knew it this song was on repeat. It's along the same lines of Fetty's Wap's '679'. Have a listen! It's always nice when you can sing along to the chorus to the song despite the rest of it being rapped.
Some other notable songs on the list include Skepta's 'Man' and Trey Songz 'Foreign' featuring Justin Bieber (This may have been on one of the previous lists) but that is it!
