## What 3 lists say

### No. 2 in [Grime](https://waxonia.com/genre/grime/)

Made at sixteen on a school computer. A row between two teenagers about a pregnancy, over a beat that sounds like the argument, and nothing in British music had sounded that unmediated before.

### Picked by [Laurent Garnier — A Life in Twenty-One Records](https://waxonia.com/selection/laurent-garnier-a-life-in-records/)

I am a serious fan of English music, and this is grime at the moment it arrived — something new that owed nothing at all to what the rest of us were doing.

### Picked by [The Waxonia Desk — The Hundred](https://waxonia.com/selection/the-desk-the-hundred/)

Made at sixteen on a school computer, and nothing in British music had sounded that unmediated before. A row between two teenagers, and the beat sounds like the row.
