Proud to present my first ever interview with none other than RUFF SQWAD 🇬🇧 The crew broke down the creative process behind their white label classics, the backstory of their legendary "Guns & Roses" mixtape series & their upcoming music.

dot rotten had one of my fave bars of all time, was my msn messenger status for like a year “try eat me in E3? I'll pull out the streezy and make eskimo dance”

RIP Dot Rotten. A complicated yet supremely talented figure in UK music. “I’ve analysed the grime scene fam, it’s full of fakes and fronters.”

A 20+ year old recording from my archive. Released today on Cassette Tape. A Grime internet radio set recorded in my bedroom at my Mum & Dad's house, with MC's Big Narstie, L Man, Typah, Oozy of N Double A Crew. Not public until today. All sales of the tape go directly to charity - TheMusicWorks who help underpriveleged kids into music, dj and studio sessions. neversleeplife.bandcamp.com/album/plasticm…

@Ed_Rants You should look into who has come through the Ruff Sqwad Foundation. Chy Cartier, RB, Teewhy, Twenty’8 etc.

Before I move on from this conversation, infrastructure is a big part of this. Where is BBK records? Where is Lethaldabizzle records? Who is signed to Ruff Sqwad Recordings? Who is signed to Dirty Stank? Who is signed to Cash Motto? Who is signed to Merky Records?
