Allow Me To Introduce Wiley

Wiley

Am I the only person who has noticed how the UK consistently produces such great music? From popular artists like Adele, Estelle, M.I.A, and Amy Winehouse to global djs like David Guetta and Calvin Harris, the only next logical genre of music that awaits their presence is rap.

Although he is not new to rap, he has yet to make a big impact on the rap game in the states. I hope to some day change that. Wiley is one of the originators of what is called "grime music". Grime music merged in England in the early 2000's. It is a mix of UK garage, dancehall, and hip hop. It's a sound that should have already hit the States.

Wiley's flow is sick. His delivery is fast and precise. His sound is infectious. After listening to one song, you find yourself wanting more. His influence in music can be traced back to other UK artists such as Dizzee Rascal, Tinchy Stryder, and Chipmunk.

Wiley is set to release his 8th studio album Evolve or Be Extinct on January 19, 2012 (also Wiley's birthday) The first single "Link up" is now available on ITUNES HERE
