Ruff Sqwad - Flee FM: The Film
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 8 ก.ค. 2024
- One of the most important Black British music collectives of the 21st century make their triumphant return to the scene. With two decades of shaping hits for artists like Stormzy, Dave and Chip, Ruff Sqwad proudly unveils "Flee FM" - a 7-track project of original music. Accompanied by a conceptual short film that transcends time and resonates with the pulsating essence of urban music culture.", the crew journeys back to the raw essence of a pirate radio set, revisiting the natural settings that birthed their early pioneering sonics. While the days of white labels, Avirex, and tape packs may evoke nostalgia, the group's emotionally charged production and razor-sharp microphone skills transcend time.

This is sick 👏🏾🔥🔥 Just going off the evolution of technology, this is what sets should be looking like nowadays. Elite. I don't know if this is gonna be regular or annual, but I'm here for it.
Ur Ghanaian too hopefully u hsve learnt Ga or twi
Definitely need to bring back sets. But sets should always be live. That's where the magic happens
@@joshuafrancois3838 In hindsight, maybe they could, but I don't know if all the people needed to maintain that at a high quality with all them angles for every set is as sustainable.
This can never be COPIED, EVER AGAIN!! 🎉🎉🎉 that said I'm about to cop a Avi the matching NITTED ❤❤❤ E3 VETERINARY at its finest 👌
Calm down auntie 😎
I don’t think people truly understand what these man have done for music ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
They too busy listen to drill. This is what u call uk legends
Trust me!!!!!!!
WE'RE BACK FOR GOOD, FLEE FM OUT ON ALL PLATFORMS📍
Regular setssss like daat…teking man way bk ta Deja / Rinse but move time Deja was da one…nah this a throwback nd moreeeeeee?! 😎🔥🕺🏾💪🏾👊🏾
I went to the private screening and met these incredible guys!! BARE NOSTALIGIA I USED TO RINSE PIED PIPER AND WIN EVERY CYPHER!! THEY'RE BACK!!🥶🥶🥶🥶🔥🔥🔥🔥
Glad to see you man back missed slix rapid and dirty danger shelling the mic used to have all the radio sets on tape.. the fans missed ruff squad. keep shelling down the place you man are 🐐s in dis ting ☔️ oh yeah just clocked where’s fuda guy scholar and Tinchy 👀 🔥
Reactions coming ☔️
real hype never fades, just gets purer! Guns and roses was elite in the day
Welcome back!!! even though your contributions never left 🔥🔥🔥
I'm 38 and from the USA. used to listen to RS in highschool. they always had the best flows and beats, long ways from tingz in boots.
i'd be interested to know how you came across them
it all started with 1xtra. 1xtra had a show that would stream on the Web and I was listening right around the time Eskimo dropped, after I heard that show I was hooked. started listening to rinse and deja sets uploaded to the forums and got files and songs from homies from the UK from a program called Direct Connect. I watched everyone from the scene grow. I was a hip-hop producer and was plugged with dipset at the time, tried to get Logan to send me beats from guns and roses for them lol but it ain't happen.
@@ish164obviously he lived in London
How did you get hold of their vids or music ?
@@ish164 great question. so back in the days what lead me to grime was 1xtra. 1xtra had a web radio show that they streamed. I tuned in when 'eskimo' was at the top of the charts. I was hooked since then. I came across RS from sets that I would hear on deja and Rinse etc. I was on the forums, got some UK homies who would send me songs on an app called "DirectConnect' back in the day and I'd burn the sets to mp4 CDs and listen 24/7. this was early 2000s. in the future I got into music production and was plugged with dipset and around the time when gunz and roses came out I was trying to get some of them beats from Logan, but it never happened. story goes on, but def a fan from when I heard tingz n boots.
The man dem !!! RIP Scholar ❤
If you're of a certain age this actually emotional. Big up Ruff Sqwad, R.I.P Scholar 🙏🏿
This is amazing! No gimmicks, no fake women, no bottles of champagne just pure energy and grown millennial talent giving it some on the mic!

Legends in the game, this was so sick to see. Yo if Tinchy or Rochee was on it! That would have been the cherry on top.
Roachee was never ruff sqwad he was more Roll deep
He was officially Roll Deep but it always felt like he was closer to Ruff Squad
The influence these man hold for the scene is MAAAAAAAAD!!!!!!
Tings in boots was one of the first vinyl records I bought.
Nah these man was creating da soundtrack for my childhood live nd now we’re looking bk decades later…if man still had those tapes/cassettes woiiiiii 😎🕺🏾🔥💪🏾👊🏾
There mostly on u tube
Ruff Sqwad - extra. All time classic 🎉🎉🎉🎉
💯🎯
This is cold but I missed Tinchy and Fuda Guy
and shifty rydoss
The Avirex to match this legendary set....if you know you know.....i begged my mum for a Avirex
From the whole heap of people getting global fame in the acting world... to Flow Dan winning a Grammy.... there's something about the grime folk of my era making comebacks that get me right in the feels, man. And its good that long after they've supposedly "left their mark" they still can make a comeback.
Hoping same fortunes comes for Ruff Squad - and shocked I can still sing along to Slix' lyrics
Take me back please!!! ❤❤❤
🥶🥶🥶 97,98,99!!! This is GARAGE.. We birth grime in 2000's !
Still banging Ruff Squad Anna to this day. The instrumentals were 10/10
R.i.p scholar ❤
R.I.P Schols🖤

The way they’re reentering the scene is proper smart. Very wavy

The fact they came back together to show people how it’s really done is mind blowing 🔥
Their productions are still so fresh & unique 💙🎉 such an atmosphere
Ruff squad Yano the sounds of rapid changed the game for shure 💯
WE NEED TINCHY ON THIS
Boooom! Feeling that nostalgic energy. Back to my teens and my Samsung D500 with the speaker blessing people with the next level riddims that came from that time 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Finally ruff sqaud back coca cola bottle figure
Oi I’ve watched this about 100 times now man I’m so happy you guys are back! Real legends!!!
🎉👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿 From TDKs, White Labels and up till now, Ruff Sqwad have always set levels.
No-one does it better bars and beats just timeless 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Yes yes '05 vibes, '24 quality 🎯
Ruff Squad freestyle on Tim Westwood is legendary
I’ve been waiting for something like this. Ruff Squad were next level - still listen weekly to there bangers. 👌🏼🔥🥊
WOW dirty is DIRTYYYYYYYYY🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Rs is one of the coldest grime crews from early out🥶
All it needed was Tinchy to jump in then its definitely all over
Pirate Radio 4 Life! 🔥
Naaaaa, this is too sick. Ruff Sqwad are kings. Straight reload as soon as it finished, got me gassed 🏆
Yessssssssss we’re backkkkkk!!!
Nahhhh this needs to blow pleaseeeee
Fuda, shifty, tinch, stamina, roachee,
Honorary mentions maniac, Dizzee, Wiley, Maxta
Want to see you all on a big E3 set
Rip scholar
ruff sqwad keeping that grime light burning
Ruff Sqwad have always been underrated. They have huge respect in the scene but they deserve more recognition. Guns n Roses 1 and 2 are mad concepts I'll bump to this day and countless bangers before and even after... let alone the productions and instrumentals over the years. Met them briefly once as well, real and humble guys.
Would be sick if they made this a recouring series. Bringing in old members like Shifty, Tinchy, Mad Max, Fuda and collaborators like Stamina or Roachee etc maybe some new collabs as well to go with this new school, old school set feel.
I think I speak for all when I say, WE NEED MORE. Keep them coming.
This is so good to see. Bigup Scholar RIP
I remember seeing Slix on Lord of the mics i was blown away
YOOO THIS ONE BANGS!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
So many have jumped on the Together beat over the years but Dirty killed that! 🔥 #RSMD #Nostalgia #Pioneers
