    Grime article in Australian newspaper

    Yeah, its probably something like that but no mention of particular nights or peeps involved. Still good publicity, can't complain about that. It's just no-one involved with the scene can figure out the link between this journo and grime. Interesting how things work innit.

    Grime in "foreign" languages?

    So how about New Zealand Grime (not that its happening much)? We have a pretty big Dub, Reggae and Dancehall culture down here and it seems the JA/yardie thing you're talking about flows through to culture here.
