Everybody go show Luv to where you are from & everywhere. International Ferg Merch is here!! internationalfergstore.com/ Rep ya hood !!!!

This is 2005 bro

Luv that you did this one! Wiley killed it on this. Btw that's Ghetts, you did his black rose track that's why you recognise him Check out Ghetts - Legends don't die

You're a G bro. I'm from London but NY hip hop was my life growing up. It's dope that you are exploring our music now!

Awesome you reacted to this, old school grime, them days have virtually gone now in the UK but nice to see your reaction

Havnt seen anyone else react to these vids before. Sick to see you watching these artists before they blew up. Real nostalgia watching it back

Yo I’m hyped you doing these videos!

This was the classic I was telling you about mate 👍 wiley and skepta kill it everytime

This was recorded around 2003-2004 times when grime was mostly aired over pirate radio.

But if youve reacted to Ghetts before thats why he looks familiar he changed his name from Ghetto

In this kind of a setting is where Ghetto (Ghetts original alias) places other spitters in shade, maybe it just me but he has something so unique since day in his schemes, so unorthodox and energy is off the charts. Scorcher is missing from the title. Wiley had been spitting just a bit longer being the elder and was the most polished.

You need to do "Ghetts - Artillery" classic tune! Respect from The UK, 0121.

This was a Boy Better Know (Skepta, Frisco, Wiley) vs Movement (Scorcher, Wretch and Ghetts) clash.

Classic freestyle by the legends ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

It’s crazy asked a question n he says it in his bars

The old grime shit man, u can't beat it

5e Yu the guy you recognise is ghetto , now called ghetts as ghetto couldn’t be commercialised. Thanks for reacting bro

Ghetts- daily duppy

Thats Roman Road in Bow East London. The Road i grew up on.

BIG UP GHETTS

My guy! Wiley murked this

Wiley n jme BAD EM UP🔥💯

This freestyle was from the movement dvd.. recorded on Roman road which is a main road in bow E3, London.

Frisco just dropped new shit btw. The Familiar Stranger album - with Ghetts, D Double E, Novelist, Devlin....

yeah these must date back to 2006/7 at least, good on u brud for doing ur homework

Berna - fire in the booth bro, I know you liked him a lot before!

skeptics linked man like DIDDY and also financed his own tour to radio over in NY

Best bit is when Skepta tags in

Best combination freestyle

The one in the grey sweater is scorcher, he was on the first season of top boy

They were in East London Bow Roman Road which is Wiley manor. There was a lot of tension between these crews back then. The Internet was going mad with who was the best. Wiley crew was a little more basic, wretch crew was more rap but using grime as a stepping stone and people didn't like that. Around 9:30 you see wiley talking to ghetto saying "be normal" or something like that. What he didn't want is for this video to turn into a clash as that is what everyone else wanted at that time and it's likely the movement would have won so wiley wanted it cordial. However after wiley spits his last lyric I'd about ghetto so even after asking them to be normal he sends for ghetto. Then ghetto says "tried it". Scorcher is an actor in top boy. I can't remember his name as I've only seen it briefly but he was in the first or second season and he was the enemy. Also there was tension because wiley crew is based in East but with two Tottenham members (skepta and frisco). The movement is a north London crew with Tottenham and Edmonton members (wretch and scorcher) and although they personally might not have been involved in the war it was still a bit technical. This came out around 2005/6. I don't know how skepta got so big. He was basic compared to most but he had catchy lyrics and could produce music. Him and his brother created a t short business which made them a lot of money which ended up becoming the name of the crew. Before it was roll deep which was wiley crew and it was 90% east members. Then wiley Brough skepta and jme to the crew and little by little they formed boy better know which was a mix between east and north but seen as a east thing. Also, you hear wiley mentioned "Sadie is a cool young lady". She was a really pretty younger sister of a famous UK singer Shola Ama. Everyone was on her. Scorcher got her, had a child with her and then later when scorcher was in prison wretch wifed her. Now they don't talk for obvious reasons. Most think wretch destroyed the chance of a movement reunion and it was a snake think to do.

Wileys flow is ridiculous

Bro how haven’t u dun k Koke Areias alone fam the vid is raw

U should check out Class of Deja it’s Kano with Ghetts and D Double E absolute flex of skill 💪🔥

Skepta smashing it bro

I don’t know if you ever got the full story but there was a documentary by The Movement, they went to pick up Scorcher from jail and at the time The Movement (Ghetts, Scorcher, Mercston, Wretch and Devlin) had beef with Boy Better Know (Skepta, Frsico and Wiley + more) as they were walking around the endz (the hood) they run into each other on the streets and were like well you have cameras let’s see who’s the best but it was mainly Ghetts v Wiley but it was always on the mic, they would do songs together and still diss each other on the songs

Proper Grime. These OG grime artists piss all over these new weak ass young drill dudes. The whole genre is built around clashing/rap battles so you have to be on point with your lyrics and flow. It takes years of dedication with no social media to promote your stuff instantly to millions of people. Not like drill peeps just mumbling through a balaclava about how badass you are because you're stabbing and shooting people. Drill is embarrassing.

Guy who you thought was Ghetto was Scorcher, Ghetto or Ghetts was in the white T who went after Wiley when he went just after Wretch, Ghetts is easily my favorite

Shutdown was I think the one that blew in the states then obviously the praise the lord tune with asap just blew up pretty much everywhere

Yeah this is ancient, still sick.

Friscos always about on something hes sick

Old skool Wiley bars some of the best 🔥🔥 but durrty goodz beats anyone!!

This is grime at its purest bro

YO BRO, when u say about bars sounding like they should be on a different track, what we do, is write our verses and when we shoot a freestyle vid we use the lyrics but switch em up

11:00 onwards is Ghetts, king of the game in his time no contest, react to some of his stuff ASAP

That’s deffs 2005. Cause of the beats. It’s that old school grime beats and UK speed garage Bassline/4x4 niche type beats.

Guy in the grey jumper is scorcher

love to all bt for me ghetto smashed it

Subbed cuz of the n64 hood. Wiley the godfather. Keep um comin bro

Ur lost ghetts was the sickest on this by a country mile

They're in North London during that filming.

Tim Westwood put everyone on back on the day early 2000s

This has to be almost 20yrs old now. Skepta got big in America because his track “Shut down” was on Y2K which is a huge game in the States right?

skepta kinda got big in the states from co-signs from drake and asap rocky but he’s proved himself on his latest album as in his own lane. he’s huge in the uk. frisco is part of boy better know with skepta but he’s slowed down a lot since then but he’s still highly rated by those who know. yeah wiley, ghetts and wretch did the best on this. couldn’t pick because they’re all different styles. the guy you didn’t know was scorcher. the guy who was familiar was ghetto aka ghetts.

This was like 2006

It’s very early 2000’s mate bin listening to it since day dot listen to lord of the mic Wiley vz Kano or footsey vz scratchy and I think it’s in Tottenham London brv

7mins 50 is Scorcher bro, you probably know by now though!

Also check out Ghetts - Listen

Skepta went big with Shutdown and his performance in Shoreditch where he illegally put on a show in a random car park. Little point off note, this act from Skepta later led JME to creat shows on the street for free where he bought stage and speaker equipment and performed for free. This was his first stage of release for GrimeMC if I'm not mistaken. Theres a whole video breaking it down somewhere. Skepta grew from here though and began taking his craft over to the states. He had been going to the states since back in the days of this freestyle you're watching now so he definitely over time made some serious contacts. Plus, Drake has had a lot of attention on the UK scene and in particular Boy Better Know. This influenced a lot of Americans to involve UK music in their playlists too. It wasn't really just one single thing, it was a whole domino effect of things which made Skepta erupt. In turn, UK music really blew up over there. The grime scene is something ive followed from its beginning and to see it as big as is today and being shown the love it really deserves is great but its still got a very long way to go. Its only really just been born in comparison to other genres.

They guy you said looks familiar is Ghetto

New sub here bro, listen to Fredo- they ain’t 100

Thats Ghetts Aka Ghetto u did black rose

I think skepta is known in USA cus shut down was on the game NBA 2k .

Risky roads

I'm not 100 percent sure so don't take my word for it but a few years a go RedBull made an event called culture clash which involved Grime artists, Drum and Bass artists and Asap Mob and they all played their music to a huge crowd and who ever got that most votes wins. So Asap Mob might have linked up with Skepta and his crew through that and Drake was always looking at U.K music in one of his old, old interviews he mentioned watching London hood documentaries and he kept shouting out Skepta and posted one how his battle raps on Instagram saying something like when you think you're at the top of your game there's some other rappers killing it (paraphrasing that a little) and he kept dressing like a London goon and using our slang and he shouted out Skepta and they just met up after that.

Ghettos threats
