21 year old British artist REECE, whose real name is Reece Robertson who records under the mononym REECE, has already made a name for himself and has gained a large number of followers.
REECE went on to break the record for the longest played song on Channel AKA in 2009, with over 1 million views for this first music video ‘Heaven ‘at the age of 17.
Following his soaring success he released four follow up music videos; ‘watcha say (remix)’, ‘Spoof Song’, ‘KISS ME’ and ‘Party Till Lights Out’ which charted at #14 in the UK club Chart Magazine Just behindLady gaga, Jason derulo and Jay-z.
With a string of performances ranging from a total of 200 shows in 2009 and 20010, REECE hasperformed alongside the likes of N-Dubz, Jessie J and Wretch 32 to name a few, and has madeappearances in over twenty publications such as RWD and Mizz magazine.
The song is a fusion between Grime and Hip Hop with hard hitting lyrics. It is more of a three minute statement rather than a full length song, and that statement is to declare that REECE means business.
“I’m just talking to the industry init”
in essence, this is a track written to the ‘industry’ and it certainly isn’t a house party.
RWD Magazine released their 123rd issue. The special edition has three covers, The first cover sees Yasmin and Mz Bratt. On the second cover, the legendary Oxide & Neutrino with Birmingham newcomers, Preditah and C4. And Wretch 32, Skepta and Chip (Chipmunk) represent what Great Britain has to offer on the final cover.
Jermaine Scott (born 9 March 1985) better known by his stage name Wretch 32, is an English rapper and former grime Mc from Tottenham, London, where he grew up the son of a local reggae DJ in the notorious Tiverton
The Black and White album shows you that a grime MC can transform into an established uk artist. Wrecth 32 recently secured his first uk number one with “Dont Go” ft Josh Kumra giving the driving force for the album. Many people say that Grime Mc’s Can never hold a track without a Featured artist, the black and white proves this statement to be true by the amount of Ft’s on the album. In defence to the album and to counter act the statement, i would say that this allows the artist’s to cross over to many genre’s.
Back in 2007 you can only see that wretch 32 would be destined for great things, off the starting block with a different outlook on music and visuals
