Shifty is a national treasure, guy will always be a legend, his tracks bring me back to the good times when was a teenager, it’s sad what happened to him man, the Internet was different back then and shifty would of gone far.
No matter how hard he brings his bars he keeps the honesty in his voice, U always know when it's Shifty.. How come every1 argues about their endz? How hard is it to Pass fru with somethin positive an show sum respect for hard work
God I wish shifty would release get your hustle on vol 1 and 2 again. Lost them years ago and can't find them for sale or download anywhere. Shifty man sick as. Shame about his accident or this guy would be top of the tree by now.
@@nickclarke2813 wow mate I appreciate the offer but I've managed get them again off a mate. He found some old CD-R that I ripped for him when I got them albums as he couldn't get hold of them anywhere. I pick them up in an independent record shop in Manchester but they only had 1 cd of each volume. Guy told me at the time shifty was a sick MC and that's why he only had them too left lol. He wasn't wrong.
This guy is fucking fantastic, not really been into grime or anything, cant say I know much of the scene, listened to 2pac, Eminem etc for years and its long time due some northerner came out and spoke about street life! quality!
back right when he was just starting to get popular i met him online playing a video game (he gave me alot of proof that it was really him), i'm an american and he used to give me the lyrics to the new shit he'd right so that i could convert them to american slang because he liked it. This video had 2000 views back then.
@shay3475 Thats good that put something like this track to a positive influence, keep smiling and remembering the best of times...Be thankfull for what you have and never forget them man Chin up ;)
the difference between british and american raps is that alot of british rappers are telling a story, in america ... 50 cents songs for example are just flows that arent really for the kids to hear .. well thats my view of it,
true stories tho, london all day, shiftz is sick tho, grime is england tho nowdays, its spread. trust me, devlin is the best mc/artist in grime real talk.
Grime Is a London Ting Mate, it was created in London & all the Good MC's Are From London, Devlin, Ghetto, Wretch, Scorcher. Manny Only Has one good mc and thats Shifty
I've not listened to this for years. Quarantine for covid-19 had me thinking of old times. Listening to this on my sony ericsson Walkman phone
Real old school these yutes chatting about listening to drill in year 9 know nothing bout proper music n life
With a speaker it was a fat song
oG
goosebumps just reading this 👊
