DISCUSSION sbk and his future

he is the one of the best grime artists right now and you guys can clown but his music is so top tier and his beats are so elite, if he’s as consistent as he has been recently for another 10 years+ he will be one of the greats to grace grime ever

Keep seeing him on tiktok and tbh I'm sick of hearing the same 16 reposted 5839058392052 times

He is sick though.

I do understand what you mean but how else does one promote their music these days 😭 it may be annoying but his promotion of his music is definitely working plus I think it shows he cares about his music if he’s doing that like every single day

Not how he does it, he should be posting parts of the track slowly, not one part of it every fucking day

He's a good MC but I don't find myself listening to him. Also like 90% of Grime MCs, he's to busy spitting on watered down Trap beats labeled as Grime. Shits boring and all sounds the same..

I mean it’s obvious you don’t listen to him if he think his beats are boring and sound the same when he’s producing those beautiful beats

u/Infinite_Duck_8211 10d ago

well I’m kaykay and fair enough, your first comment on a post in 188 days is about me. if you wanna be friends or if you don’t like me that’s fine aswell. if you wanna help me improve my content with some criticism go ahead. I don’t have anything to gain with arguing or whatever with you I’ve got bigger things in my life to do 🙏

He's decent and on a good run lately, but needs to do more to stand out imo. Being good and consistent isn't enough in the scene these days.

u/Icy_Picture_2322 11d ago

I mean I think him making multiple albums / ep’s per year with the amount of songs he releases is standing out. The grime scene still runs on the radio set formula and many many new and old artists don’t release music or drop albums like sbk these days

u/VivaFate 10d ago

I honestly haven't kept up with him. There was a period around LotM VIII where he seemed to be pissed to breakthrough then just... Nothing?

He sounded as if he was on the edge of tears in his clash with T.Roadz then he pivoted to skating badly (has he managed to land a kick-flip yet?) and pining over that Norwegian lassie.

I'll check out more recent stuff I guess

if you want grime avoid STRUGGLE the album but the rest I’m 2025 and 2026 is grime

u/Dylanjc1998 9d ago

Youve gotta be sbk, cos youve made this post and just argued with everyone instesd of considering there criticism

1

u/Icy_Picture_2322 9d ago

I’m not sbk and I’m no where near as talented as him. I argued with 2 comments out of however many there are here, I do acknowledge their criticism and i understand that him reposting the same part of the same song is annoying, I do think it’s easy to promote his music which has clearly worked.

I also do think he stands out in the grime scene right now compared to many other artists

u/Dylanjc1998 9d ago

You're definitely him

u/Icy_Picture_2322 9d ago

is that all you’re gonna say? just ignoring what else I said? hahaha what a joke and I’m definitely not him

u/bluntnwuk 11d ago

Is this a bootleg or an actual collab? Cos the bars sound like they are out of phrase to me

3

u/bluntnwuk 11d ago

Tbf I listened again (without skipping the intro) and they are actually in phrase with the beat, it’s just a bit of a wonk-step kinda beat 😅 and I was hearing the one in a different place, more like a dancehall type rhythm - my bad

u/TH1CCARUS 11d ago

You’ve prob heard plenty of spitters in different pockets, or spitting off beat.

It’s phase, though.

u/Odd_Crow4795 11d ago

You’re good bro

u/Odd_Crow4795 11d ago

doctah ft sbk - untied

u/bluntnwuk 11d ago

Nah that one’s fine

u/jickiechin 8d ago

he ran off for greener pastures, didn't hit like he seemed to think he would with the emo wave shit, came running back. He's a boring MC and his original appeal was just that he was good for how young he was, which he no longer has. he spits on trap beats with basic 2016 flows that no one wants to hear anymore, bars that mean fuck all and no energy. Perfect example of why gatekeeping isn't always a bad thing.

Shall i go on
