This song is about Anthony Hardy, an English serial killer. After Hardy was imprisoned British rap artist Plan B released a song about Hardy, dubbing him the ‘Camden Ripper’. The song describes how Hardy had psychiatric problems and was able to carry out the murders because of “neighbours who were always out raving”. The song talks about a fictional victim, Suzanne Smith
“Wagwan” or, more precisely “Wah G’wahn” is patois, which is frequently used in London” and is literally “What’s (wah) Going on (G’wan)?”. This is referencing the murders of Anthony Hardy, aka “The Camden Ripper”, but as far as I know he never murdered anyone named “Suzanne” and he dumped his victims in the trash, not the canal. The apparent sample taken from a News broadcast is fictional, but it’s pretty clever as Plan B could never really do a rap like this about one of Hardy’s actual victims (the song is bad enough, but can you imagine how bad it would be if he was talking about an actual person?). That said, what Hardy did was pretty much the same and Plan B is able to rap about what these poor girls went through in such detail simply by making it fictional. I was living just down the road when it all happened, it was horrific! Having said all that, several years after this song (and just around the corner from where I now live ffs!) a girl was murdered, chopped up and thrown in the canal, although it was her own brother who was guilty, not a sexual predator. Still, wah gwan?
Wagwan is jamaican English but very oddly without an accent is closer to what we'd say where i live in the north where we shorten a statement "wagwan" is loosely "what's going on?" Here it'll be "wotsgoinon?"
The sample he used of Leonard Cohens Suzanne was a spot on choice First time I heard this I was stoned to fuck walking back to my gaff and it was straight up 1am Most anxiety and paranoia I’d ever had
It is tough for females in the "street life' game .......you are precious. Plan b is brilliant he hasn't done anything for ages he needs to come back........look up Bugzy Malone 👍
Are you from super bad is it. Mc luvvin I bet he's 30ish too. BTW did you get gassy after starting the Ecig cos I did. I swear ecig gives some bad gas.
Hahaha I am the canadian mclovin I guess😂 and not that I've noticed, but I do burp a lot more. But that could be getting older I'm not sure haha. Keep safe man!👊💯

Jus found out Anthony Hardy(the Camden ripper) died in prison last year from sepsis/covid19
Oh dang!
Literally just watched the documentary on the Camden ripper

The Camden ripper was from a place called Burton upon Trent bro which is where I live haha but this all happened in London
As if he thought wagwon was the rippers name 😂
Wagwan.... (wah-gwan) mean what’s going on ..... ‘she goes to see wagwan’ ( what’s gwarnin’ ) ( all English/yardie slang)
