- This summer Skepta embarked on a sold out tour of East Coast America & Canada, culminating in a performance alongside Drake at the OVO fest in Toronto. Noisey were there throughout the trip to document this milestone in his career. What happened was very spiritual and very crunchy.

JME chilling at home playing COD and making almond milk.
He's the most sincere dude out, he warms my heart every time lol
Seriously where tf is he lol he definitely isn't the Co owner and same with wiley
@@judetully3600 he doesnt involve himself with the spotlight as much, hes been on that vibe for time
@@jomz7152 Yeah JME said on livestream the other day he explicitly doesn't want people to rate his music for the ratings tbh most people in grime definitely are accustomed to ''keeping it real''
Mate its Jme not JME (twitter.com/jmebbk/status/728540324361048064?s=21)
I don't think Skepta can ever take an L this year. He turned Drake into a part time road man, something I don't thing any else could do.

I'm watching this as he is currently touring through Europe and selling out stadiums. Proud of the man.
I watch NOISEY documentaries when I'm high to appreciate their music even better lol
that's what I am doing now...
My friend and I sit in his basement and watch noisey n Vice dabbing out every Saturday morning. New Cartoons n Cereal
Austin Kuipers lol i need to start doing that...
John Kevin I believe it's English mate haha

I was JUST cringing to that hahahah, I paused the Vid and curled the fuck up hahahahahaha ahhhhgggg
+Emm mma She had to get that red card ASAP ✋🏿
+DMXhill Actually had to pause it, it was so bad.
+DMXhill I never comment on shit, but I paused too, that shit was so bad.
His style his music everything that he does is just pure original. People love him because he doesn't try to be one else . Love from Sweden . We love you out here.
i love skepta man... he's definitely a thinker... such a calm spirit
Skepta is the epitome of individuality and achieving success through individuality. A real role model.
Word
"You have to have a clear vision of who you are". I love when Skepta gets deep with that real talk.
Skepta is and will always be the realest guy ever
Kieran Westlake .. westyyy is that you Yeah?
calm down kieran, i think he's hetero.
as opposed to ken, gi joe, mickey mouse, all those bloody fakes. bastards.
Skepta you're a UK/English legend, from making beats, to grime sets in like 04/05 years all the way to this now. badman. respect from Manchester.
"GIVE IT UP FOR SPEKTAAAAAA!"
respect for Skepta after watching this. This really isn't my kind of music, I like Mumford and Sons ffs, but he's got talent and soul, its exactly what music industry need right now. his flows come from the heart, and he loves the music, thats why he does it. keep going 🙏
Flint Pascoe-Easterby do u mean spekta?😂😂
@@kidmorphius4002 ???
Ben W
the girl in the documentary called him spekta instead of skepta
Had to watch this twice, it's too inspirational Fam big up skepta 🙏🏾
When US people complain about not understanding UK grime/rap and they have Future... :\ *face-palm*
+Zeeke and chief keef + young thug
+Zeeke and a lot of US people dont like FUTURE... trust.. way more non supporters of him than there is folks that actually like Future whack ass...
Future is like one of thousands of other US rappers lol
+Zeeke Future is made fun off constantly for that..what are you talking about.
future make good music though. aint gon lie
No one is more iconic in the UK urban scene than Skepta. He’s the first imo to bring UK rap/grime/afrobeats internationally and he has stayed true to his London heritage
What a great watch! Proves anything is possible if your willing to work hard.
Skepta is riding the wave and still staying humble. Legend.
Very Inspiring!
+Mario Balotelli jheez hahaha
+MOBO Awards reeal chat!!! spekta is my favourite singer everrr
+hundydoe singer lol
+MOBO Awards Shout out to the Boston Girls !
send him his award
when i heard "Spekta" i had to pause the vid and hold my chest naa too cringe
Even as a american, I cringed
Best doc I seen in a long time. More than just one genre of music.. this what the dream and the grind is all about!!
This man skepta is legendary. It was an honor to be in his presence in NYC twice. lol btw Im the guy in the GONE hat in the beginning
Skepta went from getting 1 GCSE to where he is now. That's mad
I left school with 1 GCSE self raising flower 2 eggs and a ruler.. I went home straight to the computer.
+Riink Curtis Mom told me to turn it down, next thing I'm in the jeweller
Humble,down to earth ,not corrupted by fame ,the way he treats his fans by saying hello at entrance ,that tells alot about this man, lots of respect for you Skepta ,stay real.
This is inspiring to watch, thank you for capturing history Noisey and big up Skepta for living it!
skepta deserves to be where he is coz he put in the work
I was buzzin all the way threw this thing man, I've been listening to and watching the grime scene for about 9-10 years, and I can honestly say there wasn't a track Skepta brought out and I thought " nah this ain't poppin" proud of him man, much much respect.
I heavely respected skepta and his personallity before this. but watching this made me respect him even more. like I didnt even now that that was possible. its like respect to the square
lljusttry haha respect squared? love it family 😂😂 👌
he deserves it, UK's most hardest working. Broke urban america bruv. oldtyt skeppy. Big fan since he was a DJ for meridian, mixing in the early days of 2004 circa. The he spat and it heard so natural. Diamond in the dirt!
I have so much respect for skepta, such a humble artist
I'd like to thank skepta for this documentary. I'm not an upcoming artist or anything but it's nice to hear his view on things
The way this was filmed made me want to be there firsthand, that looks like a nuts experience. Happy for Skepta, happy for UK music too.
gotta watch this once a year. motivation.
Skepta's a legend and a complete beast on the mic not many grime artists or even rappers in general can touch him lyrically.
SKEPTA HAS ALWAYS BEEN NEXT LEVEL! TIME FOR GRIME TO BECOME WORLDWIDE!
Big Video ! very inspiring
Actually learned a lot of good advice and outlooks on life. Very nice, much respect to Mr Spekta I'll have to give him a listen
NOVELIST MY NIGGA, HE'S NEXT
Nah man that's the way to be, look at young artists these days bein confident is the way forward because it shows that they will get the work done
+profanity swan he believes he can get there init, all rappers are big headed
+I Am Rambo Specs I agree he's next
+Holloman Kas why the fuck would he dumb down his talent so some fucking yanks can get it? fuck offff m8
+hamid hey get is right mate ..southerneeers or yanks..there is a difference?
Skepta is one of the best hip hop artists ever to live in my eyes.

Absolute madman, mad love for skepta
I hate the new wave of grime fans tbh , they are more about posing with nike caps on instagram than actually listening to real grimy tunes under the surface

Anyone have any info on the first beat after shutdown, around 1:45 ? In the credits at the end it says "Spirits" by Skepta courtesy of Boy Better Know but i can't find it anywhere

Fun fact: I paused watching this because i wasn’t a fan, now I listen to all his album all day.. Skepta is That Guy!!!
