Great convo with the UK goat. Even with all the success and acclaim that Kano’s achieved in his career, it still feels like he hasn’t got anywhere close to all the flowers he deserves.
Amazing guest to represent UK music and explain the history of grime. Me and my friends and all the teenagers in different neighborhoods did grime back in the 2000s
He’s doesn’t even know what he’s talking about Grime came from garage not hip hop Grime artist weren’t in no U.K. hip hop club with black twang trying to make hip hop Wiley even mentions this on his first massive grime track th-cam.com/video/D8PeDsO0vGo/w-d-xo.html
@@redpillras3456 yes mate we know, but it was deffo influenced by hiphop in a certain way - as kano said, full verses, even later on with tunes like 'pow' being released as singles, then the first grime albums appeared -that's all stuff associated with hiphop and not the b2b rave sets that it mainly grew out of.
@@redpillras3456Kano was even one of the first Grime artists to do 4 16's versus and chorus if not the very first. That's what he brang to Grime music. Compare legendary tracks like Kano on Kyote riddim vs p'z and q's. That structure was influenced by Hiphop so who u tellin'. Grime was obvi mainly from Carribean culture mixed with home grown in London culture.
Garage back in the day was the come together music.. it didn’t matter who you were or where u came from if u liked the vibe you were included and even now
How can uk still have been in Toronto for decades if it hasn’t existed for decades. Grime birthed drill. Kano ghetts devlin scorcher griminal double s these man paved the way
I hear this a lot does everything happen in Toronto? Here London is the HQ for the music, but the influences come from ethnic minorities across the UK, for example Birmingham has the biggest Jamaican community and 2 of the biggest rappers in the UK scene. The most successful Grime artist is right now is from Manchester and has been for a while.
@@gyata7270 I mean Toronto is super multicultural, there’s Jamaicans here and Somalis, Somalis are huge in the music scene here, we also got Punjabi artists in Brampton and north side benji whose from Toronto is currently signed to a uk man and lives over there
Its crazy how are original rappers the Drum n Bass MCs are never talked about basically the inspiration for people like Kano and they were about peace not violence which is unheard of these days, This has got to be first Ive heard them mentioned outside of the UK. RIP Skibadee
I been on all this since jungle. I do like some uk drill but honestly I kinda miss grime. I liked the wider almost alien sounding variety of beats/bass.
I miss the authentic grime sound. The sound of a man going through tough times unloading pain into a song. It’s a weird description but it’s rare to have that in UK drill.
If you wanna take a walk down memory lane there's a sick documentary series on youtube called That UK Sound that goes through the evolution of UK music over the years and talks about all the different genres and how each one started etc. It's a good watch if you haven't seen it already.
@@defeatedbyego758 Dizzy Rascal’s early music, Wiley, Kano, Ruff Sqwad, Arkala, Skepta, JME , Devlin, Dot Rotton from 2000 though to 2010 was a really productive time for grime. Wiley’s what do you call it, is a good introduction to the start of grime, Ruff Sqwad made alot of early classics such as Functions on the low which Stormzy, used on shut up. There is a really extensive selection of early grime about on TH-cam including Dizzy Rascal clashing with Crazy Titch ( who later would be jailed for life for committing murder with a Mac 10). Loads of good grime there to discover & that footage from illegal radio stations shows how it grew & the energy it had in its early days. Kano’s clash with Wiley is really good & worth finding for how raw things were back then.
I would LOVE to see a documentary that highlights the influence Jamaica has had on UK/US rap music. So many of the artists I've grown up loving, it turns out they're of Jamaican ancestry.. something special about the way they do what they do. Heltah Skeltah, beatminerz, Smiff Wessun, MOP, Joey Badass, Kano, klash, d double and footsie, roots manuva etc etc etc. The Sagas by Klashnekoff is our Illmatic ✨
@@MizTheDonGargonyour reaching there bruv I'm 50 yrs old and so have lived and enjoyed hip hop from way back when from being a young kid breakdancing to sucker mc and planet rock africa bambatta. And believe me there was jaimacan dance hall before that so to say tenor saw and nitty gritty got there influence from American radio dj is wrong. They were way before it.
I was very lucky to experience fully the old school house and garage scene and it's evolution. It was amazing. From the US Garage and house to the UK garage and grime. Like Kano said, the OG garage MCs were just hype men. Some of the OG garage Hype men being PSG, DT, MC Creed, basic but effective rhymes. American equivalent was fat man scoop. You also had The Heartless crew who hyped up the crowd but mixed it with poetic flows. Heartless consisted of MC Bushkin, MC Mighty Mo and DJ Fonti. They had a strong West Indian flavour so that influence from dancehall and bashment. The UK Garage scene was very sexy. The garage raves were a fun place to be. The women dressed up. The men dressed up. Very good memories. The evolution into grime took it to a darker place. So Solid Crew from South London. There were several from East London. Pay as you cartel, Roll Deep, nasty crew to name but a few. I was in the scene and appreciated the talent but I wasn't the biggest fan. Missed the Garage scene
It was good and the UK needed it at the time. I'm 50 yrs old and remember Chicago house from back in the day old school dance hall reggae jungle drum n bass shit I even remeber breakdancing and locking to sucker mc and planet rock africa bambatta. I love old school reggae tenor saw nitty gritty josey Wales. I like some of the grime artist kano is great but devlin is probably the one who I think set the tone andd made a lot of what was to follow raise their game. Buggsy malone deserves a mention too.
Akala would be amazing to bring in this podcast that’s guys knowledge on Hip Hop, Drum and Base, Grime and history in general would be interesting to see
@@robpayne2918 He’s got few classics tho what go hard 3 Wheels-Up and Ps & Qs are his best songs he’s on some good features but Giggs has albums I can listen to start to finish! Walk In Da Park & Let Em Ave It, When Will It Stop, Wamp 2 Dem will always be classic uk albums I like all his albums but they definitely my fav ones
I went to pick up my wife from Kano's cousins house. Had some of Kano's amazing white rum (THE DUPPY SHARE SUPER PREMIUM WHITE RUM)...what my wife failed to tell me untill the next day is Kano was actually there chilling in the back garden - in fear of me fan spasming out!...Didn't talk to her for the rest of the day!
UK Garage UK Grime Jungle Drum&Bass UK Drill Dubstep UK Funky (we called it Funky House) It’s crazy how many genres/styles Black British people started. The UK really does have a unique music culture that gets completely ignored by the states.
100% bro I believe all UK rappers will have their days in the sun soon enough! Kano, Wiley, Dizzy, Ghetto these guys made music that spoke to me as a black kid in the states more so then most American rappers. instrumentals are better the syntax is better its a full blown package American ears will come to love... eventually
I remember seeing Andrew talk bad about UK Artist and talking about how they don't even have guns and shit, I swear I haven't fucked with him since then, I'm glad to see that he got a bit educated with how people live them sides,I'm happy now
This dude went to my school.. but I didn't know him. But his mum worked at the school and I knew her. She was a legend. So ofcourse she was gonna give birth to a legend..
with all due respect to giggs, dizzie rascal, skepta, wiley, jme, dave, and many more etc., Kano is the GOAT in the sense that he is the rakim/big daddy kane of rap as a whole. he was THE BEST spitter in the UK AT THAT TIME (in my opinion obviously).
@@garygriffin3647 But Giggs has more hits and more music and better albums and more features. One of Kanos best songs features Giggs. Giggs made Talkin The Hardest and was in Man Don’t Care with JME. Walk In Park & Let Em Ave It are 10/10 albums. Kanos Home Sweet Home compared to Walk In The Park it’s no competition that Walk In The Park smashes that album
@@garygriffin3647you man put Devlin on such a pedestal. The guy barely has any music compared to tonnes of other artists. He might have had potential but he wasn't consistent, can't be goat. Giggs tho, legend in the UK rap scene
Kano is top 5 in the world easy I don't give a fuck what anyone says. His lyrics ,flow, ability to freestyle off the top the lot!! Winds me up a lot of people only know him as sully. He done his thing there still
What a great fucking conversation, hoooooly. Coming from NZ where Dnb, Grime, Garage is huge & me personally running almost 10years of shows including the underground scene I completely understand what Kano is talking about when it comes to.. we know we are building something, dont know what but there's a sense of something special
I’m British and Kano is a U.K. legend but he’s not better than Nas, maybe D Double E is but Kano he’s not got that many hits compared to someone like Giggs if I’m being honest but I still like some of his classics like Ps & Qs and 3 Wheels-Up. He’s got some good verses on other U.K. artists songs but D Double E is Nas level if not higher because of man’s legendary ad-libs he’s the most underrated MC honestly speaking. Street Fighter Riddim is on the level of Papoose’s song Alphabetical Slaughter. Ring Ring Ft Skrapz is just one of my favourite songs by D Double
People always disrespect UK Hip-Hop by saying that it mimicked American Hip-Hop and grime was our sound in our accent. Not everybody liked grime in that way; there were loads of UK Hip-Hop underground artist. Grime was more commercially exposed is all. Big up Kano though.
Respect he actually knows a bit about grime. I remember pow being banned from raves because it was so fucking aggy every time it was played, the crowd would start throwing bottles and shooting guns in the air, mad times! That tune still makes me want to punch ppl when I hear it 😂
Yes geez…..! I was saying this to someone else the other day, and they weren’t really taking me proper serious that that song was banned in alot of places, and for the reasons you mention. Tbf there were alot of problems when that scene first come into clubs. Couldn’t step on someone’s trainers without problems…. (And some massive problems started from someone just standing on someone trainers.. some aggy Fucking people about then. Fun times though 🙌😆)
jungle isn't a racist term - that scene was called jungle because of a sample used in many jungles tracks taken from a dancehall MC who was shouting out "all the junglists". 'junglist' was a term used in Jamaica to refer to all the people who lived outside of town, sometimes in the hills, who would come in to the parties and dances in the town. jungle was very much a black British urban sound from roughly 1991 - 1993 which then morphed in to drum and bass in around 1993/1994 when it became more of a suburban uk sound. jungle music was very much the uk's answer to Jamaican dancehall and took its influences from early uk rave break beat culture and Jamaican reggae, ragga and dancehall music.
I remember jungle raves in around 96 called amazon, that was the height of jungle for me, it's good to see chase and status bringing it back the last few years, cutting their own dubplates in Jamaica was cool.
Jheeeezzz finally gey a UK legend to give the insight on the music industry. Ghetts needs to be up there too. Would of been great if they got both of them to explain from both sides.
I'm gonna be real UK drill is definitely making a little noise in America not to much but it's definitely being heard. In the next 3 years I can see UK and American artists collaboration more
Kano definitely knows how to adapt/adjust and blend in the crowd. Theres no way he genuinely took them seriously
Yeah bare awkward laugh 😂 american man are strange though. Every american podcast has one solid dude and 1 or 2 rare guys that jus make the vibes awkward. Unless its no jumper and they all just fuckin weird

@@itsty4short392 no they don't no one respects them besides especially Asians (of all races/nationalities)
Legit bro, Kano naturally vibes. whereas these guys really try way too hard to be something they're not he can see it a mile off
I didnt realise it was him till I read this XD
Bro you guys got Kano on here?? So fucking cool. Dudes an absolute legend.
Brilliant. You've brought on a legend in the grime scene..this guy is differently talented!

He literally changed the uk scene. His lord of the mics set against wiley is something else. Was listening to it last night
That's because he hasn't. And he damn well deserves the flowers
He didnt have the platform these guys have, the landscape was very very different. That's the only reason.
@Lily Bonetti tf u talking about

I’m British and Kano is a U.K. legend but he’s not better than Nas, maybe D Double E is but Kano he’s not got that many hits compared to someone like Giggs if I’m being honest but I still like some of his classics like Ps & Qs and 3 Wheels-Up. He’s got some good verses on other U.K. artists songs but D Double E is Nas level if not higher because of man’s legendary ad-libs he’s the most underrated MC honestly speaking.

'junglist' was a term used in Jamaica to refer to all the people who lived outside of town, sometimes in the hills, who would come in to the parties and dances in the town. jungle was very much a black British urban sound from roughly 1991 - 1993 which then morphed in to drum and bass in around 1993/1994 when it became more of a suburban uk sound. jungle music was very much the uk's answer to Jamaican dancehall and took its influences from early uk rave break beat culture and Jamaican reggae, ragga and dancehall music.
I remember jungle raves in around 96 called amazon, that was the height of jungle for me, it's good to see chase and status bringing it back the last few years, cutting their own dubplates in Jamaica was cool.
Yeah, he instantly thought hugely racist the second he heard the word jungle, for sure 🤦🏻♂️
Legendary! Thanks for putting this together
Jheeeezzz finally gey a UK legend to give the insight on the music industry. Ghetts needs to be up there too. Would of been great if they got both of them to explain from both sides.

Kano!!!!!!! Unbelievable Geoff!
This is an unexpected link up. Kano is a godfather in this. I really thought I was the only one that made the nas kano comparison
I'm gonna be real UK drill is definitely making a little noise in America not to much but it's definitely being heard. In the next 3 years I can see UK and American artists collaboration more
Faster than that if ur talking central cee he has already make song with lil durk and polo g it’s just not out yet
@@Josh-bs3ey I’d refer a song with Dave and Polo G then I’d put either Giggs or AJ Tracey with Lil Durk they’d be interesting features
@@bretwojarski5842 if they wanted to do song with Dave they would’ve by now and also daves biggest song in ages is the one with central cee
Love listening to these man say gahrahhge 😂
6:05 why's he talking about bronze pack method
Method to madness is still one of my favourite albums
Swear I saw a clip of Andrew hating on UK Drill years ago, glad to see he’s come around to the sound
its crazy that kano rates kendrick so highly because imo hes the UK equivalent of him, both are in the top 10 of all time combined UK and US
Relax, Wretch 32 is the Kdot of the UK. Not to say Kano isn’t lyrical or worse than Wretch but he’s just different.
Is this a fever dream?
Yo its that Guy from Top boy
T-shirt weather in the manner is my favourite by kano👍👌
