Oh jezus... 4-5 years ago I would've paid heavily to see Skream or Benga live... But now I don't even want to see them, not even if it were free.

And is Youngman really such an amateur? The only thing I hear him say when he's MC'ing is "Kick Snare, Kick Snare, It's unbelievable!" Maybe think of something else for a change besides the lyrics of your tunes?

Finished. sorry but by doing this and trying to scrape onto dubstep's popular side you have fucked yourselves in the ass.

As for the people that rim lick skream no matter what, get your fucking heads screwed on.. bass cannon? really?

Surely playing to an empty crowd will show them that no one wants to hear what they are doing?

Where have you guys been? Skream and Benga has been playing like this for a couple of years now... When they get paid like they do they have to play for the masses and not for the heads. Sorry guys, but that's how it is. Massive respect to Benny and Skream, nice guys.

Exactly, Words.

But fuck it, they'll see that soon enough. they're making effort to keep a fanbase satisfied which they will loose entirely in 1 or 2 years time when a new trend has arrived.
When that has happened they'll get back to the true dubheads that have supported them from the moment they started and realise what true fans are.

true that their set's aren't for the heads no more
but their making a living out of it
and they've done stuff on both ends of the spectrum
i guess it beats being the best underground dj who has to work at tesco's or something
