JME – 96 Fuckries

Over the Christmas break i settled down to Channel AKA (formerly Channel U), the legendary music TV channel that gave many of the UK’s current stars their first TV appearance. Now, like many underground things, it’s a little more commercial and more glitzy than before, however I did catch this gem by JME. ’96 Fuckries’ sees him spit, well, 96 bars of pure grimy bliss. Filmed with a steadicam over various locations in England. It’s out on Jan 15th.

“I had a Durag straight at birth,
God sent me here to make shit worse,
Nobody wants a punch in the face
Coz when you get punched in the face it hurts”
