Lisa and Zakia discuss the highs and lows of So Solid's journey, which took them from DIY pirate radio to the Brit Awards and countless other accolades. Along the way they drew criticism from the British press, and they fell victim to the Metropolitan Police's punitive 696 form, which all but shut down their scene. In this Don't Assume interview, Zakia and Lisa celebrate the lasting legacy of UK Garage and its celebration of Black Britishness. Presenter - Zakia Sewell, Producer - Lizzy King, Sound Recording - Fabrice Robinson, Editing - Femi Oriogun-Williams, Composer - Jennifer Walton, Talent & Outreach - Samuel Strang. This is an NTS Podcast, discover more at www.nts.live.

Rumtiden trycktes ihop och skapade vågrörelser i Shutdown, där en fri Skepta spottade för sin och sin genres återupprättelse. Den Sverigeaktuelle veteranen kom att förkroppsliga grimens nya guldera med kompromisslöshet och spänst som om det vore 2003 igen. Från drömmen om att bli Tottenhams Biggie, med den klaustrofobiska känslan i kvarteren kring Meridian Walk, via mental ohälsa till global superstjärna som fick Drake att tatuera en hyllning på sin axel, och Kanye West att tungomålstala. I en av Skeptas få intervjuer tränger vi in i ett säreget musikuniversum och får grimens historia på köpet. För att få alla pusselbitarna på plats har Mats Nileskär även träffat bland andra Section Boyz, Lady Leshurr, Jammer, Wiley, Kano, Heartless Crew, So Solid, Bugzy Malone, Novelist och Mumdance.
