Hallowed be thy Grime? : A musicological and sociological genealogy of Grime music and its relation to black Atlantic religious discourse’ 

In the 90's we had jungle whereas now Dizzee Rascal, Tinie Tempah,Tinchy Strider, Scorcher. Dot Rotten and other young black musicians have infiltrated the Top Ten with what's called 'Grime'. What is Grime ? Is it still black music ? Do teenagers see any black history in the beats, is there any ? How is Grime connected to religion and the concept of the African cultural transmission across the Atlantic over the last 500 years ? Where's the black history in black British youth culture ?
