@madzikud02 Are you dumb or just blind?. This video was shot in Leyton Beaumont aka Base E.10....about Plastow lol you must be blind. Even in the video they show a road sign with three areas saying walthamstow and leyton. blind fuck.

[EddyGolsby123]

Im a music fan, love everything from Jazz to Dub Step, but when people ask me who my favourite artist is.... The Mantis instantly pops into my head! This tune is the reason for that! Will always love this banger!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!

[RodgeP]

i agree london secrip that grime shit is holding gud shit like this back.

[delbot85]

top uk hip hop track!!!, that grime shit is holding rappers like these back cos they give people the view that uk hiphop is all about grime, when its not!!.

[LondonSECrip]

SOme 1 finally thinks like me I personally think grime will never hold anyshit on top it actually holds artsit back watch the top ones SWAY+ KANO they all did some kind of hip hop / r&b based tracks and i hope you agree

[curranefc]

Great song!

[LondonSECrip]

UK at somethin Sensible not juss grime (which is wack) and hoodies and that fucken accent most londoners use oh my god be somethin good in the music industry

[0ldsk00ln00b]
