His most notable peak was probably around that time when he dropped the Konnichiwa album in 2016 which won the Mercury Prize. He's not done yet though, he's only gonna get bigger!
This is standard UK grime hype. I'm irish and been listening to UK rap since the early 2000's. UK vibe is super hype and alien to American stuff. Respect
I could never knock skepta, although i do like his older albums more than his new ones. Black listed is a personal fav to smoke to.Doin it again was hard to, not to mention mic champion and greatest hits.
10/15 years? You realise he's 38 already. In 15 years he'll be 53yrs old, pretty sure nobody is gonna be interested in hearing his music then. Defo not the hood at any rate,
The first time I heard Grimme was Skepta from then on I started listening to grimme (Giggs, Wiley, Stormzy, Dizzie Rascal, JME, Lady Leshurr ...), here in Portugal I went to a small concert in Lisbon underground style, his energy, Flow and Bars and the Beats is top. Cheers from Portugal. For me Skepta Corn on The Curb ft Wiley and Chip its a next good music to you react.
this was when skepta was the king of uk music, the scene as it is now doesnt happen if skepta doesnt do thats not me, shutdown & it aint safe 2014-2015. skep is the KING
Skepta started really blowing up around this time, 2015-2016 when konnichiwa dropped. He is probably the biggest rapper from Totty, biggest ARTIST is Adele without doubt.
It was around this time when he dropped the album that won the Mecury, i think that was Skepta at his best BUT you cant sleep on old school skeptaSkepta - UK's Biggest Freestyle Westwood
I think Skepta has to be the "King" in North London not just Tottenham. Have you ever heard of a RUclips channel called Chuckie Online? He has a show called the Halfcast Podcast and there's a episode called "Which Area holds the best MC's/rappers". You should check it out if you ever have time, so you can kinda get a glimpse of who generally ranks where in London.
@5:00 there's a weird law in the uk where if enough people turn up to an event/rave like this the police can't really do much as its classed as a riot, the police will have been there making sure people are safe tbf that's all they can do at that point
@@sweetbutshowa why does it matter if its white people? you lot scream stop racism then go on to be racist towards white man, white man are allowed to listen to grime uno
Im 26 now and i was listening to skepta, jme, tempz all those when i was 15 so that would be around 2009/2010. He was popular then so he's been on it for a while! Check his album microphone champion out if you haven't already. Thats old school shit for me. And chexk out Datkid and splitprophets his group
Skepta did bits for the grime scene back then still does now but back then he was the UKs king now UK grime has improved and so many top grime artists taking over but this was a big thing for the grime scene not so much the UK do more grime battle kdot vs depz is a sick one
Skepta peaked 2014-2016 if we're being honest. This was the time when Grime was experiencing it's resurgence (Stormzy also blew during this time). Since then Grime has gone back to the graveyard, to return in like 10 years again.
nahhh g Shoreditch is the place where you can get away with this, that's the Hipster central of London, gentrified area, coffee shops street food legalised graffiti/street art real cool area all that type of stuff
See in America as soon as they said f the police it be shut down.... even tho Americans say they are the land of the free..... police in the UK only have guns if they are called to a creme involving weapons not bring a gun to a guy sleeping in his car 😂
Yo Ferg please check out te dness mad about bars- the most slept on freestyle in the scene by the most slept on artist I promise! (the most recent one- he's done loads)
Does this guy ever do any research. Just pauses a video a bunch of times to ask the audience questions. Do some research on the artists you reacting too!!!
International Ferg Mate you’re embarrassing, can’t take constructive criticism. Not sure how you can I don’t get it when you literally don’t get it. That’s why every 5 seconds you ask your audience a question. Only weirdo round here is you
When skepta wore a dress to an award show everyone knew he had sold his soul to the gay industry. I lost interest in him after that shit. Clearly he was forced into it to show commitment but well gay
Everybody go show Luv to where you are from & everywhere. International Ferg Merch is here!! internationalfergstore.com/ Rep ya hood !!!!
I was there. Was the craziest show. He announced on his Facebook and 4 hours later this many ppl came through. iconic moment for grime
basically this was illegal, completely unplanned and spread through social media/friends. that makes this so much better😂
Didn't ask.
Daniel 😐
@@mattie4883 soz

@@DJJakub27 neither did i
You ain like all these other reaction channels you generally pushing uk music into us territory nothing but respect
Thanks bro!! Really appreciate it brother !!!
*Genuinely

Nah he's washed up
Nah I’d say his peak was when shutdown came out. Few months after Shut up and bugzy v chip beef and grime was on a huge come up
He's defo not done yet still releasing tunes

Blacklisted in my top 5 smoking albums off all time👍🏼
Skepta hasn’t reached his best point yet I reckon he’ll keep making music next ten fifteen years easyyy
Until he dies bro
He’s definitely peaked at Konnichiwa few great songs on ignorance is bliss but he’s definitely peaked
He’ll be making music next 10 years maybe but he’s definitely peaked lol
Lol been making music over that long already.... 😂👏
10/15 years? You realise he's 38 already. In 15 years he'll be 53yrs old, pretty sure nobody is gonna be interested in hearing his music then. Defo not the hood at any rate,
Head honcho of Tottenham is Harry Kane. No question.
Hahaha

Skepta at his biggest right now man and still going 📈📈
Grime culture hits you harder than a flyin brick on this side of the Atlantic! This is something new to me
@4:10 2014/2015 is when he popped more worldwide but been big in uk since 2006 id say maybe a bit before
Shutdown is his biggest song it went mad at any party even at school when this playef
this was when skepta was the king of uk music, the scene as it is now doesnt happen if skepta doesnt do thats not me, shutdown & it aint safe 2014-2015. skep is the KING
2016 was when he was mad popular but he will always be somewhere near the top he’s so versatile 🤘🏻🔥
Skepta started really blowing up around this time, 2015-2016 when konnichiwa dropped.
He is probably the biggest rapper from Totty, biggest ARTIST is Adele without doubt.
2011* he made songs with diddy

GOAT.
skepta is like gucci mane they both are at the top regardless of time or generation
Skepta a legend, puts on lots of up and coming artists aswell
I was there, mad day, didnt take long for the feds to shut it down though
There's a better version of this video thats 15 mins and shows more songs, the build up to it and people scattering when police turn up. By BRMG
@5:00 there's a weird law in the uk where if enough people turn up to an event/rave like this the police can't really do much as its classed as a riot, the police will have been there making sure people are safe tbf that's all they can do at that point
No one else can do this bro. Skepta is a different level tbh.
buses couldnt get through bro, it really was a shutdown, he tweeted the location like an hour before and it went off, skepta is the final boss
shutdown is when he really started to get noticed and he won a music award ever since then relly he got very popular with his tracks
Nah he was popping way before that this when he was getting more commercial recognition
lmao nah. This was more of his comeback
Skepta was at that height in the early Meridian Crew days, Heat FM days with all them Tottenham bangers. All this other shit all commercial
Classic moment
Fam I’m in the video near the front at one point, this was dope shame it didn’t last longer 👌🏽
You deserve more subscribers!!
Was this a big moment for the Uk and did any of you guys make it here?
I was there. Last minute kinda thing, the energy was fire. No one ever did what he did back then, got to give him props to this day.
@@sweetbutshowa in 2015, this was a big moment
you dont see your drill artists do this type of shit, you just mad you wasnt there dude , put some ice on that wound
@@sweetbutshowa dont understand why u have to say white kids

Duno if you seen it but check out when skepta randomly brings out drake at section boys set.
Skepta- permanent legend
This was a impromptu gig, he just put on his socials for people to meet at that location and he performed no tickets just turn up
Girls were there
skepta is the goat
Skepta is definitely in my top 3 UK artist
React to grime documentrys and grime clashes/beefs
The Flirta D documentary is levels.

Saw skepta in 2015 @ outlook festival, imagine 3000 people spittin along

Skepta made a song with Diddy about 10 years ago probably longer
Skepta is the king of the North
nahhh g Shoreditch is the place where you can get away with this, that's the Hipster central of London, gentrified area, coffee shops street food legalised graffiti/street art real cool area all that type of stuff
In 2015 skepta was the man!
Skepta has been around since like 2006
I was there, but nearer to the back bro
Dope dope definitely seems like an experience bro
Yeah man, it’s not even the sort of music I listen to on the daily but I was in the area and still good to jam out with my pals till the sesh shutdown
You got to listen to nines music and his two short movies part 1 and 2 of crop circle
Now London is shutdown
OFB run Tottenham but Skepta is his crew (BBK) are seen as the elders of Tottenham grim. But OFB run the ting now 🍾💥
America needs to grow up
Skepta stays recreating himself...hard to say when his peak is cos he stay at the tbh
A was there it was a madness
This was at Notting Hill Carnival! One of the best times to visit London, also festival season here
No it wasn't mate. It was in shoreditch. I was there
Man clearly says “mans never been in shoreditch when its shutdown” lmaooo
He sent the time and location over Twitter in the morning, done the show in the afternoon
U should really check out some p money tracks. P money is one of the best grime artists right now
The p money vs dot rotten beef playlist is worth watching in order
P money and little dee back to back is a good one to start with aswell
Cas is dead - cheese slice .... a proper sick tune lad ,give it a listen

Mate you need to stop pause it every 1 minutes should give your comment after
Does this guy ever do any research. Just pauses a video a bunch of times to ask the audience questions. Do some research on the artists you reacting too!!!
He’s trying to get more educated.. and doesn’t wanna hear it from some bullshit articles more from the people actually living over here 🖕🏼
Good lookin C but don’t even respond to these weirdos if he don’t get it he don’t get it lol 😂
International Ferg Mate you’re embarrassing, can’t take constructive criticism. Not sure how you can I don’t get it when you literally don’t get it. That’s why every 5 seconds you ask your audience a question. Only weirdo round here is you
This isnt drill #UKdrill?
I know that copied and paste the description and didn’t notice the tag, however it is not good to change tags as is slows the video down
When skepta wore a dress to an award show everyone knew he had sold his soul to the gay industry. I lost interest in him after that shit. Clearly he was forced into it to show commitment but well gay
Been hanging around asap rocky too much.
Yo just saying. The video your reacting to should be the focal point, aka the majority of the screen. Not yoy
