## What 2 lists say

### No. 8 in [UK Garage](https://waxonia.com/genre/uk-garage/)

Eight MCs, twenty-one seconds each, one of the most audacious singles ever to top the UK chart. The moment garage became a vehicle for British MCs and grime became inevitable.

### Picked by [The Waxonia Desk — Garage on the Mix](https://waxonia.com/selection/the-desk-garage-on-the-mix/)

Eight MCs, twenty-one seconds each, and the record usually blamed for the scene's collapse. Blame is the wrong frame: what it actually did was show where half the room had already gone.
