There are many kinds of music in the world,such as pop music,country music,rock music and so on.But have you heard of grime?It's OK to say no because it's less than 20 years since this kind of music was invented in the UK.
Hip﹣hop and grime are both noisy.They reflect the thoughts of young people.But if you know nothing about underground music culture,it's difficult to tell the differences between them.For example,grime singers sing with strong accents(口音),giving a special feeling to their songs.
Leshurr,known as the"Grime Queen",said that she once tied to hide her accent,for she didn't want people to know where she was from.But one day,she realized she didn't need to change herself just to satisfy other people.There is no doubt that this is the spirit of grime:always be yourself.
There is one more difference between hip﹣hop and grime.Hip﹣hop is mainly about being rich and famous while grime singers pay more attention to social problems like wars and illnesses.
Nowadays,grime has begun to show people its strange beauty.Although grime is only popular with some young people,one thing is for sure:in grime,singers always stay true to themselves.
