Product Description
Album Description
The underground buzz created by the likes of Kano and Lethal Bizzle points to another seismic shift in popular UK music. Like drum 'n' bass and trip-hop, grime is a sound that originated in London's urban council-estate bedrooms and caught fire on the its influential pirate radio stations. Not quite hip-hop, not quite techno, and definitely not dancehall, but an aggressive hybrid of all the above, its leading lights get a second outing on this lovingly curated compilation, Run the Road Vol 2, by the folks at Vice.

Well i guess this is good as an intro to urban/grime, in that it will guide you as to what you like and what you dont. basically what im saying is that most of the songs on here are pretty bad, but theres a wide range. cant be too harsh though cos there are some live tracks (saw it coming being on of them).

This deserves a review
10 Aug 2006
Format:Audio CD
Maybe the interest in Grime has petered out, maybe this disc is only for the hardcore. I don't know, but this compilation deserves a review, a mention or something, if not only for the skill the MCs display over fast beats. I picked this up a few months after picking up Vol. 1. This volume is almost completely different from the first.
Stand out tracks:
Get Set: I love this song, it's a great first track. It almost sounds American. I love the energy.
Serious (JME): Life as an MC.
Up Your Speed (Remix): I love Bruza, he's like a British Busta Rhymes. This could easily be a Dip-Set song.
Sick 2 Def (Plan B): This is easily the best track on the whole CD. I never heard of this guy. He's very comparable to Eminem, but he isn't as silly. This track is HARD.
Can't You See (Klashnekoff): This song has the most crossover appeal. Klashnekoff rhymes slow and it's easy to understand what he's saying.
So this doesn't have as many standout tracks as the first Volume, but it shows how dynamic Grime is. Definitely a must buy if you're interested in Grime.
