Ah yes, that's exactly the same as a group of middle-class white people listening to Skepta.
In the sense the people in question are terribly insecure to point of wanting to have an opinion which 'fits in' with an emerging culture for fear of being scared of being an outcast, yes!!!

but they don't
Or has music genuinely fallen from OK Computer to "ring ring pussy is shutdown" as the bar its aiming for in only 20 years

Grime is being championed up by the white members of the (largely white) music industry, but the artists themselves are largely independent. Skepta is bigger now as an independent artist than he was on Island records, most of Konnichiwa was produced by Skepta and the other two producers on the record were black. Wiley, Stormzy, Bugzy Malone, Jme, Ghetts, Akala and many other of the country's biggest MC's are independent or on tiny record labels.
I don't know where black lives matter comes into this? Except for the fact the artists themselves are predominantly black, but as you describe grime as 'shouting slang over minimalist beats' it's pretty clear you don't know what you're talking about.
White people being insecure about emerging cultures and going one of two ways, either aggresively fighting against it to the point of racism, or alternatively being overly-keen to integrate it into white culture, is a tale old as time. See also how desperate the left who live in Muslim-heavy areas are to have it known they're anti-Isreal
Just the fact a movement which's most famous lyric is "ring ring pussy is shut down" is supposedly the future is plainly ridiculous

Huh? This is the worst post I've ever read on efestivals.
Cultural appropriation is a thing, and grime is clearly being bigged up by the white-dominated parts of the music industry more than shouting slang over minimalist beats would ordinarily merit.. which part of the post is so wrong, exactly

Feeling lost after reading the last few pages of this thread....
Don't know any of Wiley (pete?), skeptic, bbk (I went to Bilbao BBK once), kanoe...
Wrong demographic I guess
It's the latest urban cultural movement to be appropriated by white people who subconsciously feel scared of being left behind by the Black Lives Matter movement, it'll pass, dint worry yersel

#JusticeForTMRMore than a little unfair to restore them as equals when TMR had nearly 4x as many points, .

I know I was lucky to get off with a caution and am grateful for the way the police dealt with it. I'm not here craving sympathy
Good man.

Harsh.
ALthough Lambo has just put out a solo single so your general idea about him not being involved with Queen for a bit might be onto sommat-
