Although you could say some of his stuff is a bit obvious, etc etc his tunes are, by and large, sick.

He makes the biggest dancefloor tunes and is also always experimenting with new styles. I've heard so many wicked tracks that I never expected him to make. Overall badman status approved haha

I can't stand Filth though

The sounds and ideas he comes up with are simply brilliant, the versatility of his production and the styles he uses is the reason why hes doing so well. Obviously there are tunes that I dont like, but take the Skreamizm series, I dont think there is one tune on there I dont like, same with his album

I hope someone says "overrated" so I can watch the fireworks.

basically, exactly what this guy said.

Joker most of his tunes which have been released so far before he was 18. Kapsize EP, Guly Brook Lane, Retro Racer, Hollybrook Park and 80s maybe? My mate from KOAN sound would have been 16 when Clowny/Blessed was made.

But Skream is a badamn, True some of tunes are predictable but he has had SO many good releases, I mean I started to think he lost a bit but then he made filth, where the fuck did that come from? And that Cloud 9 remix tune is pure genious. Those of you who slate him just havnt heard enough of his tunes and don't take into consideration the state of dubstep when he made em. I mean Judgement would have been fucking epic at the time I imagine, along with Request Line etc. its easy for some DOA pricks to come over here in the last year and say 'na bruv that Crissy Criss is well better init' when innovation by a lot of new producers on the scene = near 0 innovation by Skream= pretty much built dubstep.
