Jamz and Spoony travel to the early 2000s, as a new rough-and-ready genre is forming: Grime. Inspired by the raw sound of garage MCs, jungle and more, Grime became the voice for the streets and inner city youth. As the sound spread, it created #1 records, international artists and took underground stars to the world’s biggest stages. In this episode, we hear from DJ Target, Fekky, Sir Spyro, Tinchy Stryder and Stormzy.
