[AfterDark Network Article] UK Hip-Hop Vs UK GRIME, Who Wins? (*5th Article)



So what does it really mean to be a UK Emcee/MC? 

Rapping, Drum&Bass Mcing, Grime MCing are all basically the same thing; someone on the mic with something to say (not to mention making a beat sound hot so the listener can be like “Tuuuune”). But when I read the title “UK Hip-Hop Vs UK Grime” back I find myself thinking; should we even be comparing the two genres? They both seem to be very different in style and sound, plus both serve the same purpose of creating a movement for the youth so why compare?

Music is always evolving and it just so happens that UK Hip-Hop seems to be in that “Old skool” category while Grime is the "New skool" sound Of UK Hip-Hop. It’s the only music that seem to reflect the 'true picture' of the UK street culture! It seems the fans of grime think that UK Rappers try to be too much like the Americans, and the fans of UK Hip-Hop think that grime lacks depth and understanding of what being a 'True Emcee/MC' is all about! But regardless of being a UK Rapper or a UK Grime MC one thing they have in common is that it all evolves from hip-hop, and hip-hop is American. So it's inevitable that a UK Rapper will be have an American influence. There are a lot of UK Rappers that don’t rap in an American accent, its just that the youth of today don’t seem to relate to UK Hip-Hop like they used to back in the day’s. Again music has evolved!

Star AKA Fresh



EvOn: What's Good?
Star Aka Fresh: My music... I'd say. Cause it's hard out here for a Lesbian rapper. Lol.


EvOn: Can you give us a quick introduction of yourself for our visitors?
Star Aka Fresh: Yesss. I'm Star AKA Fresh, HipHops Favoite Lezbo - one 1/2 of Flyghteam (youtube.com/flyghteam) I've been goin hard since '04. I played the femme roll - and it didn't get me the deal wihtout givin it up. So i shaved my head and finally became myself. Now my music is honest and explicit.


EvOn: So what's happening with you & the music at the moment?
Star Aka Fresh: Im currently in LA - just finished the colab mixtape entitled "Self Explanitory" with Milo, former 2Much member, and Lexx Rugga, the other 1/2 of Flyghteam. Once the mixtape is flooding the streets, i will be working on a solo project for my fans. Don't worry though - more of Flyghteam to come!


EvOn: Are there any plans for any Collabs anytime soon?
Star Aka Fresh: Not at the moment. Now that Self Explanitory is finished, I'll be focusing on my own craft.


EvOn: When people check out ya music What has the response been like so far?
Star Aka Fresh: Some have called me the hottest female rapper. I don't want to be cocky - but i have yet to hear my music is garbage. You'll see...




EvOn: what inspires you to make ya tracks? 
Star Aka Fresh: My life experiences, love, anger, anything that's real. No bullshit. My music is all me.


EvOn: what's the Gay hip hop scene like in the US?
Star Aka Fresh: Underground, unexposed, and underestimated. And it's my plan to change all of that.






EvOn: How Hard is it to make it in this industry as a female Rapper, and is being Gay important to sale your music or should you keep ya sexuality to your selfs?
Star Aka Fresh: Well - I've been rapping for 6 years, half pretend straight girl and half lesbian stud, and i have yet to be exposed to the mainstream, but underground, I'm very well respected. I've reached a point in my career where i just dont give a f*ck!


EvOn: Are there any other artists from the US/UK or from the gay scene that we should be looking out for right now?
Star Aka Fresh: E=Troof http://www.downelink.com/member/profile.aspx?id=685423


EvOn: If you wasn't making music what do you think you would be doing right now?
Star Aka Fresh: School and Basketball.


EvOn: How important do you think it is for new artist’s to know their history and appreciate the different elements of Hiphop even if they don’t partake in them?
Star Aka Fresh: Extremely important. If you don't know where it came from, you can't help it grow.


EvOn: any final words / shoutouts before we finish?
Star Aka Fresh: Shouts to the whole YSMG family. YungStarz for life! and of course, Milo Imlo Cosmo. And thanks Evon for the interview - love your music!
