If that was the case then how is this grime?

1 I was basically talking about Sukh Knight... It's dubstep if instrumental, but same SK beat rapped over, its Grime...

2 no ones rapping over that beat so I don't see your point
his point is that grime doesn't equal MCs ;-)
or wobbles for that matter

Err...
What, are you saying you couldn't rap over those beats?
No I'm saying that all of those are very much still hip hop. They are all released with no one rapping over the top. I hate the idea that hip hop is only defined by someone rapping over the top.
Yeah I know, that's not what I'm saying though. I just mean that rapping is one of the only constants in hip hop (yes I am aware of instrumental hip hop, but you can make pretty much anything and call it hip hop), because its such a limitless genre musically. Rap is something that is always inextricably linked to hip hop, when not much else is. Turntablism is the same, but not much hip hop has turntablism these days...
