We're beyond spoiled with Kane, but that's a good signing for the, especially considering the interest from Chelsea.

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports
That's ok as both are overhyped
Randomly just went on a Stormzy youtube ride.... Jeezus.... Grime is so "meh"... Guy doesn't even understand what a freestyle is (nor most of his fanbase by the looks of half the comments)....
That's a bit harsh. Some of the grime of the late 90's/00's was pretty good. Stormzy just sounds like a carefully engineered artist for the wide audience (dropping lines off beat and sounding tough) kinda like what Drake is to hip hop.
Kano is also shit but I find Skepta decent tbf
Merely reinforced my opinion rather than spawned it...
20 years deep and barely a record that seems to be able to stand the test of time. Not sure there's another genre or subgenre that's amounted to so little over the course of an entire generation.
Kano definitely is not shit.
I like Skepta...because he's Spurs
Reggae. I personally really hate reggae but even objectively there aren't any magnum opus for the genre (Marley's best hits doesn't count).
Also correct me if I'm wrong but most grime artists didn't release LPs back then. That came later with a shift from rave/party atmosphere to 'let's be rappers like in America' attitude
I was wondering about it. Saw it stated that he was Spurs and elsewhere that he's Woolwich. Never found any confirmation
For starters, not particularly a Marley fan (lol) and have no issue with UK rappers/hiphop as a whole.
I'm not talking purely LPs either.
Reggae (especially if you note it's respective production/dub/sounds system culture/toasting aspects) has been massively impactfull on music in general for decades... Hiphop itself might not have become the thing it was for starters.
Jazz heads, punks, disco artists, the avant-garde they've all embraced it.
Then there's years of classic 'Jamaican soul' songs themselves (vocal reggae if you prefer) that still inspire cover versions by artists of various persuasions today).
Some fantastic (albeit disciplined/minimal) musicianship...
I could go on and on and on... (evidently! lol)
World's apart.
Said in another thread on here before.... 'Boy in the corner' dropped in the early 2000s... Then what?
[see you on topic in a music thread sometime, bro.

Lukaku: " "When Jose Mourinho come's knocking at the door, it is an opportunity of a lifetime and one that I could not turn down."
How many times does he think he's lived???

I honestly thought Lukaku was going to go to the Chavs since he's supposedly such a massive fan and he wants CL football. I guess that whammer Pogba must have talked him into it. He said Chelsea were the biggest team in the world (can't remember when) too, the fickle bastard.
Also tbh I'm surprised Mourinho signed him, considering he benched him at Chelsea and Roberto fucking Martinez of all people did far more for him as a player, but I guess someone has to fit that giant Zlatan-shaped hole.

The agent tie in seems to be a huge factor these days. Seems Mendes is running Wolves now.

Man Utd are in the Champions League...
Lukaku and Zlatan are so different as players it is hard to judge what will happen.
If it is true that they are going to sell Martial then they will use a front 3 of Lukaku plus 2 out of Rashford, Mkhitarian, Lindgard and Mata I guess.
Oh yeah, my bad. I thought they were in Europa for some reason. Maybe I got them mixed up with Woolwich. XD
