The theme this week is England versus America. The english rap scene, the grime scene, has been growing in popularity in recent years. We got two young rappers who has been getting a lot of radio attention versus a newcomer in America and a more experienced one. What’s your favourite scene?
J Hus calls himself a ”doughnut hustler”. He got his name from making playground deals. He bought doughnuts and sold them for a profit to the other kids when he was 10.
AJ Tracey grew up surrounded by musicians: his mother a DJ, his father a rapper. This UK grime rapper has been featured by Drake, Stormzy and more and has never been afraid of being political.
YoungBoy Never Going Broke Again may have a complicated name. He actually recently changed from NBA YoungBoy because of legal problems with, yeah, the NBA. He recently got released from jail and has now released his debut album.
A$ap Ferg has been around for a while. He has now linked up with some of the bigger names in hip hop for this remix of his track.
