Grime is a genre of urban music which has been developing in London's underground since around 2002. With its combination of influences from UK Garage, drum'n'bass, to hip-hop it is the latest style to evolve from the UK garage scene. Grime music's defining tempo at 140 beats per minute, and MCs 'spitting' lyrics, have given East London it own sound.
