Noisey Blackpool: The Controversial Rise of Blackpool Grime, hosted by Poet and starring Afghan Dan, Soph Aspin and Little T.
The last few years have seen a huge resurgence in UK grime and there are now a whole bunch of talented MCs around the UK with growing fanbases.
However, when a RUclips channel called Blackpool Grime Media, started getting a lot of attention earlier this year, it took a lot of people by surprise.
Not only were most of the MCs on there extremely young, but they all seems to be insulting each other using some very offensive language. Plus the amount the views they were getting was insane.
Noisey sent a team up to follow the three key players in the scene - Little T, Soph Aspin and Afghan Dan.Why was this happening? Why Blackpool? Was the beef real and did these kids have what it takes to forge a genuine career?

I can't believe I've spent 30 minutes watching a documentary on bgmedia...
Me neither.Mind you am at work.So least am getting paid to watch it.
Can't believe i've been excited for this all week...
GRIME DEPORT TV Jesus dude the fuck your is you problem?
Rt😂😂😂😂😂
Ben Huggett same 😂
it was a wrap the moment she said she has coloured kids
bruno 96 maybe she has one of them blue green or orange kids 😂.
Its just where they from, some find it hard to say black or brown thinking they are being racist
bruno 96 lol
can you blame them fucking hell its hard work for a white person not to be racist these days
bruno 96 LOOOL...fr....like every racist that says they got black friends....
ozza lowes I can see where you're coming from, too many people these days get offended way too easily and I ain't even white. But the way she said coloured was out of order still
AfghanDan: “That’s not talent, that’s survival you see there” Random Talented Card trick Lad: 😕
🤣🤣 😕
Hahahah I know he didn't know what to do with himself when he said that 😭
He’s just gone to prison lmao
@@RegiyThorntonhow u know?
@@joshj1018was posted everywhere, in pen for burglary lol
Little T and Sophie meeting was like when the teacher gets the students together to say sorry and make up.
That’s because they are children
Poet going on like he just settled the east coast west coast beef 😂
Muhsin Ahmed tru

LOOOOL! got Suge n Puffy to make a truce.
East and west was real I'd love to see the west London vs east coast London rivalry that would be mad

Big up Jack Wilkinson on the cam
They need to thank WillNE and Memeulous for this shit😂😂😂😂

BIG UP the likes for this comment
Soo we are not going talk about the magic trick
Right!?
5:32 His face when his 15 mins were up 😂😂😂
I wanna like so I did then unlike bc it was 70 so it on 69 now
@Consistency main let's see your magic then boy
“It wasn’t really racist. It was more like ignorance”. Listen to that man. He is saying some key things. Educate, don’t be like Afghan Dan’s classmates
They weren't ignorant either
Whatever, he was just getting picked on for being a bit different. Try being ginger.
Ghaye
isnt that what racism is? im sure no one would be racist if they weren't so ignorant. edit: I guess maybe I should say racism stems from ignorance.
Blackpool is racist I live in this place
But was jack wilkinson on the cam?
Da visuals blud.
Harry Jenkins big up
that's made my day, "jack wikinson on the mic" :D
Harry Jenkins No it was CallyManSam
Gee Rex Westies made some mad tunes for kamakaze tho
Anyone else think it seems like Poet forces slang?
yeah after every sentence 'my bruddahhhh'
massivley. its really annoying.
he sounds to posh
Pc Plum unlike your grammar
Completely mate.
This literally is just two kids having beef at school and they made a documentary on it ffs
THANK YOU. I dont get this at ALL lol.
It's entertaining tho
@Zacobie Dyer lmao true. Everyone here fucking hates these. They wouldn't even last a second in a different area of UK 😭🤣
Yah it's just need but it not tho they 're wont arguing they are making diss tracks and what they said is fowl and it gaining so much attention bc it not just them look at the channel thete isd loads
Jess Manley to be fair these videos gained millions of views online, started the careers of several now big youtubers and even garnered the attention of big rappers like Stormzy who actually directly mentions them in one of his interviews. Given how much of a thing this was I think it’s a worth while documentary to make.
Ngl Soph Aspin seems genuinely intelligent for her age.
@October's very own OVO soph aspin is the girl lmao
@@tescosniffer3671 LMAO
@October's very own OVO ...
@October's very own OVO haven't got a clue
Well shes no Wretched Sket Minger
Just me that thinks Sophie is genuinely good looking and seems genuine

Afghan Dan is such a badman, he eats space raiders
Man don't mess
Timmy Kuriakose he eats the crisps which suite his look the most cuz
Timmy Kuriakose he was eating sensations at the start
I think they was ment to represent his head
Dillon allatt its to represent dylan brewer cos he made a diss called space raider business
I’m surprised that basically everyone on this is actually quite nice
"I need to bounce before little ts brothers beat me up "
little T walks around like hes a bigman, I bet he'll end up doing lvl 0.5 btec shampooing smh
Liam Jackal DEAD 😂
Let's just leave it at that...

"lvl 0.5 btec shampooing smh"
Could you translate that for a Yank like me. Thanks.

"Ur hair looks like a pot noodle"

Potnoodles are life (especially the curry)

Aka Skinz he was 12 then and he’s like 15-16
@@user-xz2jb2uh1h nah green
This was amazing. Well done Poet gave these people a proper chance to discuss their story and you took them seriously.
I love how ironically even though based on the music grime sounds way more improper than mumble, the most recognizable dude like afghan dan is still talking like a normal dude and seems a lot more mature than the modern artists in na.
Afghan and Sophie are actually sound, didn't expect em to be that nice
Little T's an alright lad too
i write fanfics nøt tragedies l-/ I agree
i write fanfics nøt tragedies l-/ exactly what I was thinking
i write fanfics nøt tragedies l-/ hi
i write fanfics nøt tragedies l-/ Afghandan is a fuckin legend I actually know him really nice guy
Noisey, your next challenge is to reunite Smithy Boy and L-Dot when you do Noisey Telford, and then get em to collab with Little T innit
MrJaymezGee man has to get the sound cuz... jesuzzz
WILLSSON
Nah Smithy Boy is a g idgaf, people think he deserves the sound but real talk he never even got the sound it was L Dot who fucked up the base with his midlife crisis shenanigans
loool
Bigggaaaa narstie

pound world though hahahahaha fuck sake
lmao Afghan Dan just there eating 25p SPACE RAIDERS
Terrific Taiwo G you get space raiders for 25 P? Shit man I wanna live wherever you live.
That’s because he’s grateful for what he gets he’s not exactly rich. Loads of people do that in the uk tho so it’s expected
Damn i get em for 50p
@@niallc.7612 man for me it's 20p
It was a diss at Dylan brewer
As a New Yorker and Hip Hop head, I'm so intrigued by this.... this is how Hip Hop in NYC started; With rap Battles and Beef! I commend everyone from Blackpool! Keep Goin'!
shut up yank
It ended sadly
People either get it or they don’t, I personally find it so dope you’re digging our UK vibes - respect to you man! 🇬🇧✌️
@@HelenPrimoRoseanneInYourArea not a uk vibe tho no one listens to bg media, its all about grm n that
@@protologychicken6849 shut up wank
What was dude expecting Afghan dan to go savage on a 12 yo? 😂😂
No wonder why little T is a rapper ,his mom is 2pac.
Ta E brah😂😂😂😂
hahahahaha
Hahahahahaha
dont disrespect tupac
Little T is Brenda's baby 😂
I died when I saw Memeulous and WillNE
Pizza Productions
They really opened my eyes to this type of music - it’s absolutely hilarious
Same
Man i could not stop laughing
When was it though
Pizza Productions same and when they used will’s clip. 😂
I swear I don't understand the hate these kids got... It's so authentic and makes me so happy to see small communities thriving because of a connection through music... It's literally just kids having fun making really funny content 10x more entertaining than any of the 'sit down and be angry at kids for having fun' youtubers.
and they weren’t even that bad, some of the things they said was bad, but it wasn’t even bad music
10x? Those idiots are not even on the map.
Always harder to create than destroy.
sorry but Little T was SHITTING it when afghan dan turned up to squash the beef
You’re a textbook chav
Elijah Gavin sorry but how?
Elijah Gavin love to know how
Millie Oldroyd two words...makeup...eyebrows!
Elijah Gavin so beautiful i have naturally dark eyebrows with naturally blonde hair i’m a chav? i do admit my old profile picture was taken a long time ago but DO NOT judge people off what they look like. I am actually a Youth Member of Parliament who sits in the house of commons who leads campaigns for improving mental health services, tackling knife crime, improving services to support youths who use drugs. Before you make a judgement understand the person first.
I like the way Afghan Dan speaks with the 12 year old boy. He takes account of his young age and the fact the he (Afghan Dan is an adult) when soeaking with him. He also doesnt subtly berate him for using a racial slur and he doesnt patronise him for ir either (unlike Poet). I think Afghan Dan should get into youth work. Hes sensitive, self aware, empathic and clever enough to do some really good things in that field.
He wouldn't be able to cuz of his criminal record
DreamSnipes Yeah he would.
@@EddieDerbyshire no if you have a criminal record like dan u are not aloud as you could be a harm to children even if u have genuenly changed
@@rioosullivan2661 You can still work with children you just can't work in schools and places like that. Ive got a criminal record and have been a youth worker as well as a mentor for troubled kids with bad backgrounds. There are many different types of jobs that involve working with kids that hold no prejudice towards ex offenders. This sort of experience is actually more beneficial for the less fortunate kids because ex offenders are often more relatable. This makes them great role models for kids as they go to prove you can change your life around. Give it a google before being so sure of yourself pal 😜
Ayva Vama nah fam he’s too busy saving the grime game
Hey low-key Josh the random street magician snapped with that card trick. That caught me off guard.
thats how he gets you, then he will charge you 4 quid
Ya was freash timeing
Life was easier when these lot were sending for each other
The mum: I’m not racist, I’ve got coloured kids. PMSL 😂😂😂 that got me goin 🤦♂️
Honestly I see no problem with her saying that.
@@BramLastname well we do so stfu
@@danielnicolas4623 now now now,
There's no reason to snap at me.
Just explain why you think so
And maybe I'll retract my statement.
@@BramLastname ight srry abt that. You can have black kids and still be racist. Clearly they use the n word in their household because she said her oldest son told little T to say it and she didnt seem to have a problem with it. She even tried to justify saying it because Stormzy(a black man) says it. 🤦♂️
@@danielnicolas4623 I agree that they use it a bit too loosely,
However I do think there's a separation here.
Little T saying it is not something she'll publicly approve,
Which means she values her children above racism to some degree.
This isn't something I have a problem with.
She doesn't use the word casually herself,
Her children did, but they never said it's normal,
Just that nobody told them why they shouldn't use it.
They likely just saw people use it,
And monkey see monkey do.
That's why I see it this way.
Poet fully is a BTEC Reggie Yates😂😂😂👍🏼
Rhys Poynter that's legit what i was waiting for someone to say
Haha brutal.
BTEC?!?!?! NAAAAAAAAAAH looooooooooool
lmao
HAHAHA
We need the whole BGMedia crew to send for BBK 😂😂😂
MaestroNFS they would get raped littry
THE REAL GOLDEN all they need to is send for Jammer, job done haha
"Right Dyl Brewer yeah, fuck skepta, we know what you dun!"
MaestroNFS and the igm screw
😂😂😂
the person who’s filming this is jack Wilkinson on the cam
Big up Jack Wilkinson on the cam
I remember getting into this two years after all the beef went down, seeing it get relevant again is even more obscure, mind you i'm austrian and didn't know grime was a thing
where's jack Wilkinson

Afghan Dan really is an alright person
14:51 “wagwan my g” “hiya😃”
You made history mate, great film and you made some peace, the feeling of an enemy becoming a friend is a tremendous relief and gift.
The Blackpool talent was fabulous. Afgan Dan is the best nickname ever.
Afghan Dan looks like he eats Doritos for dinner
Lol
Uhm who doesn't?
My god xdd I eat sweaty basketball pumps
He does tho

@@user-bn1go7tu6c fam my comrades will come for.u
11:55 The N word ... "Is it commonly used in your household?" - "No. I've got coloured kids." 🤣🤣🤣
Damn is that racist rebuttal #1888 from 1988? We ain't heard that one in about two years 🙃🙃🙃
I think she meant she doesn’t use it because she has coloured kids so she’s more considerate about it but then she contradicted herself a bit after when referring to Stormzy so idk
Just like the video from Niko Omilana Where this woman was like “I’m not racist, y’know Why? Cuz I got colored tv and Black friends”
@JESSE B it's not used bc she has coloured kids and it can offend them
It mashed me up 😂😂😂😂 this documentary is beyond me 🙄🙄🙄
I know I'm late but this was a really good documentary
John Williams i forgot about bgm till today and i acc enjoyed watching
In my eyes you are still on time bro.
This video was made 3 years ago and I still watch it so many times a week, it is my comfort video

Ian Beale
That's the funniest bit!! it just adds nothing saying that
Ian Beale for real its that line that got me to watch the whole thing
21:39 is the cringiest thing ive seen this year
Yeah to be honest, I cringed as well, I hate it when people say that they're "Gassed", I would prefer it if someone said, it was "Amazing" or something.
ThisisTSPE z
ikr
Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah. Nooooooo. That was gross. I'm with you on that one.
PS You say gassed. I think FART.
Fox Makeba yeah but you're a yank and can't speak English. you also think you put gas in your cars
I used to be proud to be from Blackpool.
Then RUclips recommended me this video.
Honestly,
You should be proud.
Total de-gens
Missed the fuckin memo then didn’t u lad. They’re doing something with their lives after being in such tough positions. If u don’t love it cool. Why hate on it tho. Let anyone follow their dream innit. They’re doing something with their life at least. Kmt
@@BramLastname no, this video is pure cring
@@NoRockinMansLand so are you,
But your mother is still proud of you
Does anyone know the original track at 7.50? Sounds like spaceship- jme & skepta but slightly different. Thanks! 😁
Thought Afghan Dan was gonna be a bit of a vegetable, but he’s actually intelligent and well spoken
S Miller bit of a vegetable 😂😂
U now wat I'm saying is all he said. Jk has good
If you saw the guy when he was little quite shy I always thought he was well mannered kept tellin him to join the army. Im the original Blackpool rap OG I battled most and won.
And now he's in penitentiary for house burglary

why does afghan dan look like calum's corner (not hating)
Nice video, I like how it shines some nicer light on them all and nice to see that all 3 are actually pretty sound, just a bit misunderstood.
This has literally changed my whole opinion on little t and Sophie .
JazzleBeauty I love her. She's very talented. The right producer could make her a legit Iggy Asalea.
JazzleBeauty I love her. She's very talented. The right producer could make her a legit Iggy Asalea.
JazzleBeauty same lmao
JazzleBeauty same, they're still shit tho
Good job your opinion doesn't mean shit then ain't it.
Afghan Dan was a father at 15? That's crazy
that's nothing, we're killing here in Swindon, 13/14 is standard.
Lullu Edge there are grandfathers in Lancashire who are 19.
dipperuk That's nothing to be proud of, unless you are proud of that
Happens more often than you'd think, everywhere
ben1349 are you sure loool? What age are they having their kids
The way I look at it, Afghan Dan was by far the most talented on the scene, Little T was effectively the posterboy, the face of it all (and probably the most well-known and easily remembered) and Sophie Aspin had the best flow
Dan was by far the most talented, but when people ask you to remember a BGMedia star they would probably say T
6 years later, everyone here so grown up now!
Ikkk
Sophie is actually sound but she is in the wrong genre!
iiComment13 yup
Yoosorong Isorite No, music wise! The "Sophie exposed" video is a reason why! She has a great voice but wastes it in grime!
its just for fun though and its earning them money like look a sophie she dgaf about any of it its just a fun little thing to do she probably dont mean half it and kids singing don't exacly put money in pockets does it
iiComment13
They aren't her kids
Idk why people call Sophie ugly she's actually kinda cute ngl
Obselete she wears bare makeup tho
Yes she does but she doesn't look or seem as bad as people say she is
Obselete
I think the rapping puts people off, her singing is beautiful.
Mackenzie yes it is indeed
I know I mean she wears a bit much makeup but she still looks good
They should make a 3rd one to see how there lives have changed after leaving bgmedia
Is that a clip on man bun he's wearin ?
Guys he just wants " Blackpool on the map"
Zaki Saleh lmao it's out of the map at the moment😂
Zaki Saleh it's only on the map at summer because of the beach
Start a petition for Blackpool to join the Isle of Man
Zaki Saleh it is on the map jk jk jk
0:59 it sounds like he's rapping for a second
Cesar Delgado I started seeing things
comment made me laugh so hard my gut exploded XD
Cesar Delgado f
Ikr 😂!
It fucking does
Little Ts mum looks like soph aspin in about 30 years😂😂
Dan and Sophie actually seem smart and want to do something better for themselves. I hope they do something good and wish them well.
Dear Americans watching this, please do not let this portray a picture of grime to you. Search Ghetts, Giggs, President T, AJ Tracey or even Wiley.
Thanks - London.
dont lack chip
man put AJ Tracey in front of Wiley
dont lack Chip, stormzy , skepta and yungen
dont lack they think cos they've been exposed to skepta, they know everything about grime
dont lack oi you forgot immortal technique and lowkey !

afghan dan has excellent table manners in the chippie, respec bruv
