New Grems - Dimanche EP

This is the title track from the Dimanche EP, which has just dropped as a teaser before the release of the album Broka Billy. This is produced by NT4 and Jonn 9000, you may remember NT4 as the other MC with Grems on DJ Troubl's "Guedin" (whick also features on this EP, see below to listen). Cop the EP here, and stay tuned for more.

NEW GREMS!!! THIS IS BIG

One of the hottest, most innovative and most versatile spitters in France, Grems, and the ever-present DJ Troubl (2-time world champion, I just read), have been making very conspicuous moves toward dubstep and grime (not to mention funky house, which actally made me like funky house) ever since I've known of them. Grems is probably best knows outside of France for his collaboration with Orifice Vulgatron (Foreign Beggars), as one half of Rouge à Lèvre on the track "Gash." I'd probably have to say I'd rate him in my top 3 or 4 MCs at the moment (seriously), so the news that he'll be releasing a new album is no small deal for me. Expect frequent updates on this blog. By the way, "guedin" means crazy, which sums up this track nicely.

Tire la chasse -- Titine Boy

This is being toted as French grime even though it's already sounding pretty far removed. I know this guy has done a lot of work with Grime Sin, the only French grime crew I'm aware of, so I guess you'd have to call it grime. Whatever it is, I like it. Myspace here, and search this blog for more stuff by this lot.
