sounds pretty good, quite like the trailer they have. hotheadz obviously is increasing its 'production budget'

"Most Guardian readers probably appreciate the fact that under the vocals there's usually a track as musically experimental and obtuse as anything in the pages of The Wire." I'll bet most Guardian readers have never read an issue of the Wire in their lives. Also, why wouldn't grime's core audience appreciate its musical experimentality and obtuseness?
"the coverage in the style mags seems to take an almost gleeful pleasure in tales of young deprived black kids beating the shit out of each other at dances." That is very cruel. I'd like to see an example of that. Almost = not quite, so this is a very cheap criticisement.
"(Most of the staff and readers would last about three minutes at a Sidewinder rave or an Eski dance.)" I have never been able to attend, but my good fellow Matt Woebotnik had and he reported no problems at Eski Dance (realting to his person's attendage), as a white, middle-class, 30-year-old (or therabouts). I'd wager the writer is projecting his own fears here.
"It's hard to shake the feeling that grime has been seized upon so enthusiastically by the struggling music industry simply because in a climate so unimaginatively retro it's at least trying to do something different." Yeah, is that supposed to be so bad?
"But whether or not you "like" the music - it'd be interesting to know how many of the Mercury Prize's judges ever stick on a bit of Dizzee when they get home - is irrelevant." As if the only way to "like" music is sticking it on after you get home from work.
"To be honest, if you're even reading this paper, you're probably too old and too nice for grime to produce a record that says much to you." I'm sure there are plenty of broadsheet readers who can get a lot of pleasure, excitement and lots besides out of a Wiley or Dizzee record. Maybe even people reading this thread.

This was the line in the article that really got me. If that's what he belives, why is he even writing the piece?
