Grime is a style of music, even a lifestyle to some.

Similar to hip hop, grime borrows from a wide range of music styles.

Grime is heavily influenced by hip hop and speed garage, essentially being a cross between the two. Other strong influences in grime include drum 'n' bass, dub, dubstep, reggea, and soul.

Grime mc's spit slower than rave mc's (ie happy hardcore mc's), yet faster than most hip hop mc's. In terms of tempo, grime ranges between 120bpm and 140bpm usually following a 2/4 or 4/4 time signature.

Grime has a very close, dry sound. Effects such as big reverbs, long echos, phazers
