(Homer Simpson voice) Wiley Coyote? No? Darn darn darn! So this is my introduction to the delights of Grime, is it? Well, if I'm going to have to listen to it I suppose the man who is regarded as the Godfather of Grime (hence the album title) is as good an introduction as you can get. Meh, it's not without its charm, but basically fast-paced rap against bass and drum patterns (I assume) with no real tune I can recognise (mostly) doesn't really do it for me. Also, I thought I must have heard about four tracks and looked and I was only on track two. Grrr! I'll be honest: this rapid-fire delivery, relentless as it is, is giving me a headache.

You know what? **** this: I'm not listening to seventeen tracks of this. I'm more than three in so I can't use Three Strikes, so let me introduce my new clause:
Bailing Out!

And here I go.

(Note: I got six tracks into this before I bailed)

Expectation Index: 0
