Ruff Sqwad

I said it would be a good thing if grime artists got more back catalogue exposure. Ruff Sqwad are arguably the most compelling case. They've been consistently incredibly inventive and work well together as a group. Rapid produces most of the beats, wrapping three minute packages of fragile teeth-gritting percussion and relentless melody - check 'Anna' for the most startling example.
