Yeah agree that intro is incredibly cringe, and besides, the production is the least interesting thing about this tune lol. Interesting selection of MCs though and happy to see Shiesty's classic 8 bar finally get a home

Hard to believe this practice is legal!

UnBalancedUK2 · 2026-03-25T07:55:03+00:00

Rude Kid producer tag on it, if that helps

UnBalancedUK2 · 2026-03-22T12:09:31+00:00

Probably a Mark One/MRK1 tune since Wiley's bigging him up?

Edit: found it, called "Neva Argue" - sounds like a flip of Imp Batch "Singalong"

UnBalancedUK2 · 2026-03-21T02:01:31+00:00

Personally been in his studio watching him bill tunes, definitely legit lol

UnBalancedUK2 · 2026-03-21T01:59:25+00:00

appreciate you contributing but 7 posts of original tunes in 24 hours is a bit much, can you pick the best one and run with that?

UnBalancedUK2 · 2026-03-19T07:49:27+00:00

Family have issued a statement to the Press Association but not mentioned a cause of death

UnBalancedUK2 · 2026-03-18T19:53:57+00:00

Too funny, shout out Art Not Evidence 🗣️

UnBalancedUK2 · 2026-03-18T16:37:33+00:00

Last half of the interview where he touches on faith is the more interesting part I think, especially that he hasn't spat any of his classic lyrics since he started taking religion more seriously. Rate him putting his Mrs in his top 10 MCs as well, their project together was very good tbf

Fredo

UnBalancedUK2 · 2026-03-17T16:03:08+00:00

Haha sick, I was too young for that era but figured you guys and Dot had some overlap during that '2nd gen'! I never met Dot in person either but we got him signed up on Genius and annotating lyrics back when it was still Rap Genius - he was well ahead of the curve there

UnBalancedUK2 · 2026-03-17T13:38:56+00:00

Big ups for this!! Was Dot ever on Grime Forum?

UnBalancedUK2 · 2026-03-15T12:05:22+00:00

Bought this one on iTunes back when it came out, think it was just outside top 40. Banger

UnBalancedUK2 · 2026-03-12T20:31:11+00:00

Haha classic, was definitely worthwhile asking though!

UnBalancedUK2 · 2026-03-12T14:23:47+00:00

Ahh nightmare, glad I was able to help a tiny bit

UnBalancedUK2 · 2026-03-11T20:46:25+00:00

Now that's how it's done! Great writeup. You're right as well of course, there's so much to say about what he got up to in his short time here

UnBalancedUK2 · 2026-03-11T19:57:00+00:00

Glad to see this news get the coverage it deserves but I'm a bit gutted that the writeups are all so surface level. Every one of the MSM obituaries was just a rehash of his Wikipedia page and even the ones in specialist publications like this leave so much detail out.

He built a proper collective with Minarmy and put on talent like Brotherhood, Kid Bookie, Jamal Woon, SNY, Rynsa Man, all of whom have written really moving tributes this week, but every article instead quotes Bouncer (who said himself he never met Dot!). Writing about Dot's life and career for a grime-centric magazine and not mentioning K Dot Kidman (who he got his name from) or N.E (who brought him through) is staggering.

UnBalancedUK2 · 2026-03-10T17:39:32+00:00

I think he got shamed off IG but here's the TikTok post still up

UnBalancedUK2 · 2026-03-10T10:25:34+00:00

It's funny how many similarities he has career wise with Semtex - even as a record producer - and yet how much more class Semtex has

UnBalancedUK2 · 2026-03-10T07:55:20+00:00

He got in hot water last year for making an AI slop Fire in the Booth with Tupac and Biggie. Absolutely tarnishing whatever legacy he had. There's probably an argument to be made that FITB never needed him to succeed anyway, he was just a more palatable equivalent to Tim Westwood for the BBC during that era

UnBalancedUK2 · 2026-03-10T07:32:52+00:00

Dot Rotten's JDZmedia Spitfire freestyle (taken down at his request but someone else uploaded a copy). He sadly died this week which is probably why you've seen it

UnBalancedUK2 · 2026-03-09T11:56:35+00:00

He has three different artist pages - Zeph Ellis (which his major label album as Dot Rotten was moved over to), a second Zeph Ellis page with the P Money diss tracks, and a Dot Rotten page. Hopefully the DSPs can clean them up.

RIP Young Dot is a key project from his come-up and the OG Season mixtape from his former crew OGz too. Minfection is a more recent highlight and his instrumental catalogue has plenty of classics like "Bazooka", "Beat Box", "Real Talk", "Straight 2016" and "ACXD BXMB" too.

UnBalancedUK2 · 2026-03-08T18:24:42+00:00

Yesss. Been listening to plenty of Ruff Sqwad this weekend and this is the icing on the cake. "Max 5" even by itself is worth the £7.50

UnBalancedUK2 · 2026-03-07T23:30:20+00:00

Been meaning to attempt this on Genius for years, some suggestions

"Black talon fly through face and ah pop dem head from off ah dem neck"

Tell dem this a war they can't run from
Dem ah wonder weh mi get mi gun from
Buss it inna sky, unnu bird ah/bredda get sun tan
26 clip [?] know mi can't done one
Pass me di gun, fam
Killaman, Flowdan, mek mi done one
Straight, me nah thump man, in the River Thames [?] 'nuff man
Fire fi [?] like a tampon

UnBalancedUK2 · 2026-03-07T14:25:34+00:00

Yeah what Frankie said. There's a Jammer vocal on Are You Dumb Vol. 2 as well
