The video to Rude Kid’s new single “Banger After Banger” had to be something pretty spectacular in order to do it the justice it is due.
Dropping on GRM Daily, the video mirrors the tracks flashbacks to the early days of grime with its crowds of emcees gathered around a fire pit, which can only act as a metaphor to the founders touching mic and spraying fire in the majestic days of pirate radio. The flick features cameos from the royal family of Grime including Lethal Bizzle, Stormin, Mercston, Sharky Major, HeavyTrackerz and actor Kola Bokinni, The visuals, which are presented by Relentless, strike the perfect balance between old and new by paying homage to the scene’s roots, while continuing to reflect grime’s evolution and capturing Grime as a culture.
Announcing his new single live to clubbers at the iconic Fabric nightclub In London last month, Rude Kid dropped the record to a packed house as part of his high energy set and turned up the voltage of the electric vibe by bringing out Ghetts to spit live for the crowd, just days before jetting off to Texas to take over at SXSW, where Kid represented the home-grown sound and also gave it a U.S. debut.
