TINCHY STRYDER + TAIO CRUZ = HIT SINGLE
The debate of whether or not Grime has a future is generating many heated discussions with sceptics doubting its longevity. It has almost become the "thing to do" for many of the leading artists to hook up with more commercial successes - and more times than not - this move has proven to be a good one in the process of sustaining mainstream interest for a genre that is considered so niche... Kano’s been doing the hip hop thing for a while now, Dizzie's been flowing recently with House & Hip Hop vets Armand Van Helden & Grandmaster Flash whilst also having collabed with Lily Allen and Arctic Monkey’s (to me these collabs felt more as though Dizzee was doing THEM a favour rather than the other way round) and "GoG" Wiley, is retiring (or is he?)- fresh, young and swaggered talents are needed to keep the movement strong (cue Tinchy Stryder's new one....)
The track is banging and so is the video, maybe lacking in a storyline but who the hell cares when you've got Taio doing what he dus best (lookin criss whilst beltin out his smooth, heart felt hooks), a quality produced video to match the tune's high standard and with hot girlz holding leashes with great danes big enough to be mistaken for donkies on the end of them - everyones a winner no?
Check the remix aswell featuring Chipmunik & Sway

To tell the truth i had never heard this track until you put it up! its a stiff tune, Tinchy is holding it down, the new generation is breaking new boundaries that no one thought UK grime artists could break! All we need now is more UK singers to start breaking through and setting a high standard! show the world that we can put down in all musical genres :D
