Treddin' On Thin Ice

The new sound of the British inner city sits somewhere between ragga, U.S. rap, U.K. garage, and jungle. Dizzee Rascal was the first artist to bring this up from the underground, but he's not the last. Wiley, one of the most respected producers in his field, has been involved in the underground scene for years. Once part of the Pay As U Go cartel in the late 90's, he went on to form the Roll Deep Crew (once boasting Dizzee Rascal as a member). In the past two years alone, he's released 24 singles and countless collaborations and remixes. He's also behind the hugely popular "Eskimo Dance" raves, regularly attended by thousands in London.
