Can we stop talking about Semtex and appreciate just how much of a down to earth, honest and good guy that Skepta is? He is actually trying to make a difference to the world and not just to put money in his wallet... upmost respect.

skepta's dry throat and him not touching that cup of water is making me thirsty smh

Right, found my motivation video for Monday, Well deserved. Only 2mins into it now and am glad that I have met both of them at various times in my career, this should be a wicked discussion, lets hear it.

Skepta is the most important british artist today. I think even more than Adele. N17 Stand UPP!

I used to think drake was catting London slang but it's not that. Specifically in Toronto, the blacks there are migrants form the carribbean/west Africa, so their slang has the same (predominantly) Jamaican origins as ours which is why they have the same words/phrases/structure that you typically hear in london. A lot of us Londoners are first/second generation migrants; i.e. our parents or grandparents were born in carribbean/africa so we are much closer to the culture, just like in Toronto It's different in America because most of the blacks there are from slaves and haven't got the same 'homeland' cultural definition as us and where they do it isn't as strong because they've been 'out of the loop' for a lot more generations

Great interview on Skepta's side. Semtex was the wrong person to interview him for this amount of time tho tbh. There were almost no counter responses to anything he said and all of the questions he asked him were really generic and off subject. "What do you think to the current state of UK hip hop/grime atm?" i bet his last 5 interviews didn't cover that, glad you asked him about that m8
