I seriously considered purchasing Crazy Times today. I actually think I'm gonna buy it. I don't think I can stop myself. Crazy Titch is hilarious and there's a pretty good CD with the DVD. From listening to soundclips of the CD, with it's cornucopia of hip hop instrumentals, it's obvious that Titch is aiming to gain recognition outside the minute grime scene. One thing that was evident at cargo on Thursday was the difference in crowd reaction for hip hop and grime. Lots of people were having fun to the Grime tracks, but I noticed on many occassions the lack of movement in the crowd when the music changed from a well known US hip hop record to a grime record. I'm guessing this is the reason why producers like wonder and target are now going along the "G-Hop" route.
If grime was as big as US hip hop, Titch would probably have the UK equivalent of the 3rd one in Destiny's child starring in his videos and be able to afford about 6 or 7 gold teeth. Instead, he lives with his mum and throws pieces of raw meat to his dog in the garden. Probably for the best, really.

The Mitchell Brothers are the grime equivalent of The Vengaboys. Their name alone is beyond laughable. Unsuprising considering Mike Skinner is heavily involved.

I know someone who knows someone who went to school with Durrty Goods. FACT.
