During recent interviews, Danny Brown revealed that the Grime scene played an influential role in his life and explained why he plans on calling his next project Old.
“If it wasn’t for Dizzee Rascal, if it wasn’t for Grime music in general, The Streets, I wouldn’t make the music I make now,” Brown told Tim Westwood. “So, I’ve gotta give them all the props in the world. It’s a big influence. It was a big influence on what I wanted to do and then, especially, how their careers went, how they’re so huge but still, they still doing what they want to do.”
“America’s not like that so as a music fan, it’s tight to see people just doing what they want to do and people gravitate to that. [They’re] not just trying to make radio songs or trying to make club songs. They’re doing what they want to do.”
The interview with Westwood can be viewed below.
While Brown may enjoy experimenting with different sounds, he has said that his next album, Old, will feature work that sounds like what he has traditionally done.
“With Old you think I’m talking about my age, or where I’m at in my career. But it really [refers to] when I’m experimenting,” Brown told Clash in a recent interview. “And then when I go back to my ‘hood, I have my people who be like, ‘Where that ‘old’ Danny Brown shit at? I wanna hear that J. Dilla Danny Brown.’ So I [titled the] album for them.”
In December 2012, Brown explained that this album will be “more mature” and told Pitchfork that “if people are just looking for dick-sucking jokes, there isn’t too many of them this time.”

Dizzie Rascal’s “Boy In The Corner” Is A Classic.
I Remember They Were Comparing Dizzie To 50 Because He Got Stabbed Up.
Interested In Hearing Danny’s New Music. XXX Had Joints.
It’s nice that people in the US fuck with the UK rap scene abit, but there are better things round here than shitty grime music. That scene died out years ago, no one in the UK takes that shit seriously anymore.
If u looking for good UK rap go listen to Krept and Konan or Giggs
Giggs is the single worst rapper I’ve heard in my life, he could take the greatest verse of all time and put you to sleep,no flow and no variation of tone.
If US fans are looking for an easy way into UK rap then Sway or Kano are the obvious options.

‘[They’re] not just trying to make radio songs or trying to make club songs. They’re doing what they want to do’
Sorry Danny but this is absolute bullshit, Mr Rascal in particular has been spewing out garbage pop/radio/club songs for years.
Plus I never undertood why people actually liked ‘the streets’ he always came across as Hip-Hop’s Danny Dyer to me.
