  • mad rhyme and ting dis man got sik beatings

  • let's push things forward!

  • have all 4 albums and can still happily listen to each without skipping a track.the man is a true poet

  • This has been on my computer and lots of different music players over the last 4-5 years, and i'm only now realizing it's called 'mike skinner' and not ' push things forward' ...

    wow i suck.

  • @proof2580 it is called lets push things forward. This video's wrong

  • theres no excuses my friend!!

  • this song is shit he cant spit

  • @bestthereverwas your mum cant spit.

    remember once spittin, forever smitten.

  • @bestthereverwas fuck you

  • classic.

  • @gh0zt36 atmosphere is NOT "fresh american underground", whatever that even means. god, you sound like some moronic rolling stone reader. what the fuck kind of term is "fresh american underground" anyway

  • This is called Let's Push Things Forward.

  • one good song the rest of his stuff is corny trash. must of got lucky here lol

  • More than marster of his own style, hes a legend!!!

  • great

  • this shit goes when ur hella high

  • Anybody know of anyone else who sounds like the streets or who has continued in the same sort of direction??

  • @todanes Plan b

  • @Clunkno1 mm can see what you mean but i would count plan b as more uk hip hop.

  • @todanes professor green a little bit, im just getting into this uk shit lol but plan b's who needs actions when you got words is my fav album so far, so im lookin for shit similar to that

  • @TrailerTrashThorne yeah, can see what you mean in a way ,but again, pro green is really more uk hip hop. if i were forced to give an example of an artist who draws influence from skinner i would probably say someone like scroobius pip.

  • DUBSTEP is influenced by= 2-Step & garage

  • dubstep influenced? no way mike skinner knew what dubstep was then, he's talking about garage in his lyrics

  • Great stuff

  • Lets, Push, Things, Forward

  • master of his own style

  • @YOOTEC Just like a silent fart is the master of all ass expelled gas. Shit is shit.

  • thats why i love the streets, theres know one eles like them :)

  • what a comment. Idiot

  • wat a dude wat aguy

  • love it XO

  • Turns out your in luck, cause I know this dodgey fuck in the duck.

  • i'm lovin this tune.

    Sounds a bit 'ska', which i fuckin love too.

    mad ryhmes haha

  • this sounds very dubstep influenced to me.

  • @JTee93 yeah i thought tha bout it being slightly ska :) noss init x

  • alll you guys are dumb..... skinner is not a rapper or hip hopper hes somthings else hes a U.K thing

  • is a very nice song?!

  • his style is unique and his verses are sharp and well-produced. Personally I enjoy his music thoroughly. But to sit here and say that all american hip-hop is about "gangsta tunes" is complete bull sh*t. Underground rap here is unreal and slowly becoming less underground. Let's make no buts about it, hip hop was born, lives, and will forever be a thing of the states and that is just the way it is. We will keep an open ear to people such as skinner, but the best rap is still in the U.S.

  • It's different, Skinner instrumentally is influenced by UK garage, house, trance and(especially in this song)ska, all UK or European genres. Eminem, in my opinion is one of the best lyricists ever... but when you have Lil Wayne and Akon promotin' your country, Easy E would be turning in his grave. They're different genres as far as I'm concerned, you can't compare them.

  • You seem like someone who knows quite a bit about grime right? So what i wanted to ask is, do you know any deep and meaningful songs by The Streets or any other Grime artists or road rap or U.K Rap?

  • Sorry, i forgot to add. I've already got 'Stay Positive', 'Everything is Borrowed' and 'The Escapist'. And other songs.

  • mad props to skinner

  • american's dig this shit just like people dig our shit. we don't buy shit anymore we just rip it. bad timing. his more recent jams are more influential and easier for me to appreciate. I jammed this track in like 01 or 02, I didn't buy it...it came free with the clothes I bought at american eagle outfitters(promo cd)-I didn't even know who he was but I like his style and wasn't because he was on mtv its unique. He has matured nicely. So people have no taste and follow fads but i like what I like

  • damn alta vista...forgot about that ish!

  • Comment removed

  • Fucking Brits can't rap for shit...even the black ones. What a fucking joke. And then they wonder why they can't break into the American market. Mike Skinner would get chewed and spitted out by any young cat in my neighborhood. What a pussy.

  • American rap sucks ass, all sounds the fucking same. Same shit different smell. All idiots posing with their "cool" gangsta names. Fuck off. If you think DrDre, Eminem, etc make good music, youve got puke on your brain. Before even listening to Skinner I didnt even like "hiphop", but his songs are so catchy, the rythms, the melodys. I like it.

  • mengele800 please be careful.You're going to suffocate like that with your head stuck so far up your fucking arse.Twat.Huh.Racist towards other countries AND other races.Personally,I think that(generally)Americans enjoy"home grown"rap & aren't interested in any other kind.Fine.You see,I enjoy listening to Mike Skinner.I can understand him & he is content with the length of his dick(doesn't need to pull on it every 10 secs.)Also reckon that the majority of our singers are happy where they are.x

  • ''Racist'' towards other countries? That makes no sense at all. And why do you have to bring my penis into this? I'm very happy with my size. Ending up with my face up my ass is the last of my worries. Who's gonna get me, a Brit? Please! They would have to grow some balls to even confront me. All I said is that British Grime could never compete with American Hip Hop. That's why all these labels should stop trying to promote their work here for most people find Brit rap pathetic. Inferior. Lame.

  • Firstly,my apologies if I have disturbed you while you're enjoying jerking off to an "aerobic dance competition" mengele800.The size of your penis(or anything concerning your penis for that matter)was NEVER mentioned in my message.I was referring to the revolting habit of USA rappers yanking on THEIR dicks whenever possible.Who's going to get you?What Planet are you on?What the fuck are you on about?Now,learn some fucking manners & go & get some "sensible pills" from your Doctor. Freak.

  • American Rap stinks of capitalism where as The Streets is relevant. You have to be British to get it.

  • haha i'm american and i get it. i like it too i think its more a matter of preference. i think americans just expect him to start rapping like all the american rappers do but this is obviously different and theyre not open minded enough to just relax and listen to it

  • mate, just reading the other comments, your argueing with pretty much everyone. just face it. your just an irritating cunt! welcome to my block list!

  • mike skinner isnt a rapper you geek! he's developed a new style which is big in the world. he aint licking 2pac and biggies arse like most of the "big rappers" are! name one that isnt? do some research before you chat shit!! end of!

  • look mate, your not mature enough for this "debate" as you've just proved! at least all our artists dont go round killing each other, america is full of cheesy "gangsta" tunes, at the end of the day skinner keeps it real, he dont go round "rapping" about his bitches, his cash or his homies, man you are so full of shit. and to say his music didnt sell in your country means he dont need your country. i only wish your shit wouldnt keep coming over here! listen to "two nations" by the streets mate!

  • I love this song!!!!

  • kenn ich gar net und gefällt mir nich

  • was der bauer nicht kennt frisst er nicht

  • Lets push things Forward!!!

  • finally! Ive been looking for this song forever rofl! lets put on our classics and we'll have a little dance, shall we? :D

  • A-fucking-men. I can't fucking get into this guy's shtick. Typical and atypical rhymes at the same time.

  • fyi. this is called "lets push things forward"

  • this is not hip hop

    Skinner never did hip hop, just look at his latest album

  • This was his 'Geezer Garage' era, he does make truly great music no matter what genre... Everything is Borrowed is a master piece in my opinion...

  • This needs a Drum and Bass remix, like what I did with Mike's other song ;)

  • Can anybody post B.B. is an islamic Fundamentalist??

  • he is genius !!!! yeah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • i hate you

  • I came here because of /weed/

  • "Pop punk"...isn't that an oxymoron? Wasn't punk a response/rebellion against the mainstream, or pretty much all things popular?  Cool name, though.

  • in the info it said hip hopper :S indy mate

  • lol cockney

  • shit this takes me back to high school

    no this shit we see on telly these days

    oh wait mtv don`t play music anymore so i stay on Skyone or Cnn, why? well the news hour music sounds better

  • gtfo, when you can write lyrics like that, come back to me yeah? and i dont mean a shitty vid with 87 views against the streets that uses no talent at all

  • who here just votes Some Complete Bastard is just a cock, have you read your comments, first you said your old, then you said your not, then you said your an undergorund rapper, now your a manager

    i think i speak for every1 when i say just shut up, dont hate, get a life and piss off

  • you know this fuck the virgin 50 year old from the stikx

  • hahaha he's hillarious i've had many arguements with him and then i went onto his page/channel and his friend was like yeah we might be able to get vip tickets to skinner's concert after he told me he hates him and wished he was dead

  • alite mate what have u eva achieve u fag he a high achieving fag at dat point n sooo what marrelyn mansons a fukin goth dude or what eva hus gives a fuk what u are dere not famouse for no reason u complete prik bet ur som fat virgin that gets beat up by the youth of the rural bits n takes it out on you tube fukin loosa

  • Chav .. fully agree!

  • Remember you can't call ANYONE or ANYTHING talentless if you listen to this fucking garbage.

  • tell me whats wrong with this music then u sad old prick? like i said he relates to people and he is talented, better than anything you've done in your pathetic life. if u hate it why u acting like a 13 year old and chattin shit on here? you sound like a grandad "back in my day...", fuck off no one cares! go spike your hair and spread "anarchy" somwhere else hahaha no one cares u sad old prick

  • If you can't see whats wrong with this shit then something is wrong with your brain.

    Firstly, it isn't music at all you sad fag.

    It's digital unplayed shit, with no music knowledge required to release it. It sounds like afive year old wrote it in it bedroom on a toy keyboard.

    Listen to some real music queerboy.

  • queer boy ses the 41 year old batty dat live in the stiks spendin his midlife crisis putting dwn everyone that has achieved more than him on youtube and commenting on music he prob doesnt understand half of the words to hurry up n die your old n boring and spose ur at the age now where u realise uve bin here 41 years and accomplisheed nothing sad grandad

  • lol what? Learn to type. I can't understand you.

  • lol it just prooves once again ur old if you dont understand that then yoou prob dont know wot he talkin about in his song geeez stik to sinartra wanka

  • fuk you hamster nob

  • a few lyrics from the song explains it all really...

    This AIN'T yer archetypal street sound

    But this ain't your typical Garage joint

    This ain't a track it's a movement

    Love us or hate us, but don't slate us

    Don't conform to formulas

    Pop genres and such

    Its supposed to be different

    and if youd listened to it instead of slating it you would realise that but instead now chose to insult something you dont understand...maybe it IS because youre old...

  • So you're saying that the rap portions of the artists you've listed requires no skill. At least, that's what it seems..."it takes no skill," followed by your list, making sure you add, "musicians beyond rap." There is a skill, there is a talent involved in rapping/rhyming/freestyling. Perhaps its not something you care for, and that's fine. I don't like country, but I wouldn't say that all country-musicians have no talent.

  • So you don't like him, you say he's a bad rapper. That's fine, that's your opinion, which you are entitled to. But it IS just an opinion. But saying the guy should be killed? That's just unnecessary.

  • SomeCompleteBastard, If it takes no skill you shall have no problem copying him and making a shit-load of cash.

    I expect to hear you on the radio, sir.

  • Maybe you didn't hear me. THIS IS RUBBISH. I don't want to copy him, because unlike him, I have real music talent and artists that I managed that coul leave that homosexual standing. Happy Vim the Clown makes this fag look like shit.

  • lekkerding, ik wil je!

  • comon bitches im from london i like rap and grime very few brits can rap like american but ive never even seen an american to attempt a grime beat lol both gooo d doe u jus cnt do us looooll

  • oh and let me just clear up before you speak, i love british rap just as much, mike skinner(the streets and all that entails) sway, klashnekoff, roll deep, all brilliant, both sides whomp, lets agree on that, and push things forwards =)

  • your mate's done nothing son, pipe down

  • haha lay it on him

  • Sladen Dead is underground you fucking cocksucker, not mainstream faggotry, and he owns this piece of shit. I'd like to see Necro put this faggot into a coma. And put you in the ground.

  • yes well done mate. shut up now, you look like a tit

  • "you look like a tit"

    LMAO

    Fucking idiot.

    Anyone who supports this shit looks like a tit. LEARN WHAT MUSIC IS QUEER:

  • you look like a tit coz you can't argue without swearing, and you have the old boring 'i like underground music so i am so cool' attitude

  • No retard, i like underground because thats the only place music is still alive, with the exceptions of a few bands. And I mean VERY few. This loser isn't one of them.

  • and anyway mike skinner has won best urban poet and shit like that, he tells stories in which people can relate too that's why he's good, he's real. Unlike you bums that call yourself punks always going against the system but don't actually do fuck all about anything just listen to shit music and dress like, in the words of vinnie jones himself; penarse's.

    Punk died years ago and so did your youth, now fuck off and get a life

  • He won that award because everyone is brainwashed, and shit sells these days. Sad really. And I might be older that you, but I can break a youngsters neck with ease. Remember that kido, you're a pansy.

  • lol end of the day your the fag, you hate this guy because hs done better than you, if your music knowledge is as great as you think why arent you in hes place, pansy

  • so mike skinner doesnt have a clue and you know more yeh? ha ha sounds like someones a lil jealous, hes rich and famous and your some old guy on youtube

  • Ha. You're so disillusioned with over confidence. I'm underground myself and any rapper or musician respects another artists music.

    You dude, are already an epic fail. Remember, you're a faker not a maker.

    :]

  • Ha! Idiot. I'd knock for 6 mate. You ARE fake. Your attitude wont get you a record deal pal.

    And don't think you're clever over the internet dipshit, trust me, I can promise you that in person I'd put you in hospital.

  • your a complete asshole who obviously dosent understand the concept of music, mike skinner is amazing and for some reason, you cant tell that cuz your just to stupid to understand his songs

  • you wouldn't know lyrics if they hit you in the face.

  • whitby where the fuk is dat

    havent you got some farm yard things to attend to

  • Whtby isnt a farm you fucking retard.

  • damn right, lets have a little dance shall we?

  • skinner is the cayko bayko, and who dont go through a drug phase? lol com on put on your classics and well av a lil dace shall we !?? kisses xxxxxxx

  • kid rock pmsl u fucking yank

  • why are people trying to compare this to soulja boy and 50 cent, there is a difference between rap and hip hop, maybe you should learn a few things about music before you make a stupid comment

  • Mate he isnt supposed to sound like them, are you american or something? Our music isnt the same as yours...

  • soulja boy aint either of those two things..

  • Rofl Limey chav thinks he can rap. this is nothing compared to American rappers like 50cent, NAS, soulja boy, Kid rock, and Missy Elliot.

  • all the listed are fuckin awful, shows how much you know dickhead

  • wtf, are you saying that NAS is AWFUL? Shows how much YOU know retard. PLEASE listen to Illmatic. peace.

  • alright, hes not that bad, but, the rest are fuckin shit

  • true that, the rest are absolute shit. especially soulja boy

  • soulja boy...who the fuck do you think you are? idiot.

  • Mike skinner is a British rapper, unlike you, our songs aren't overly manufactured, overly sold & actually have meaning, sure he may not be the smoothest of rapper but at least he's not an idiot sex, drugged & violence obsessed American moron rapper & no i don't hate Americans i just hate there rappers, some have been good & btw since when has kid rock been a rapper? thats what i thought..... lol

  • he did used to do drugs

  • does he now? no, sure some people make mistakes, but at least they dont use it to boost there career and act hard so STFU

  • where do you think hip hop originated you dumb fuck...i like british hip hop a lot but all of the greats like atcq, gangstarr, de la soul, grandmaster flash, run dmc, pac, biggie smalls, like wtf r u talking about?...although i would agree with u that right now, as a whole, american hip hop is pretty shit...some underground shit is still pretty sick. like immortal technique and rappers like that.

  • im not saying that all american is shite look what i said, i said I DONT HATE ALL i just hate alot of current american rap, buggie, run dmc, pac legend rappers & yes america does have some good underground rap but the main stream is all shit atm tbh.

  • ya well you said "some have been good"...bit of an understatement bruv.

  • well i dont have to say " oh they were amazing " so stfu you've just started an argument for no reason nobhead

  • ur a nobhead. learn to appreciate hip hop.

  • saying run dmc, pac, biggie, de la soul ect were "just ok" is a slap in the face to every single hip hop fan or artist who drew any inspiration frmo them. and as for american hip hop right now...immortal tech. sage francis, aesop rock, sole, EL-P, atmosphere, brotha ali, eyedea & abilities, P.O.S., buck 65, cage, mr lif, murs, MF doom, jedi mind tricks, do i need to keep going with the list you dont know? mainstream "hip-hop" in america is trash sure, but dont dare say we cant do it anymore-UG4L

  • check out Benefit-Friends. Benefit, in my opinion, is the best I've heard.

  • he's not a rapper, hes a poet mixing with UK urban music, he won urban poet of the year. and soulja boy is shit btw

  • That piece of shit is NOT A POET. Do you fucking idiots even know what poetry is!? He`s a fucking retard, much like his fan base.

  • why u on here go listen to sex pistols or whatever talentless punk shit u listen to, fuck off old man

  • What's the matter poof, does a band that plays instruments frighten you because you and your idols are all fucking retards who cant? Mike Skinner should have been smothered at birth, some chav queer who talks shit over shitty backing tracks. You're a fucking arsehole son.

  • I like all types of music but punk is truely shit, the sex pistols wern't even the slightest bit talented they couldn't barely play their instruments, if hes not a poet what is he? Fair play if you don't like this type of music but I do and so do many others but why are you sad enough to come on here mouthing off when nobodies listening. Music is whatever anyone wants it to be.

    You having a mid life crises or what? why you on here arguing with teenagers and young adults?

  • u realize u contradict yourself. Punk is punk, the sex pistols r artists creating art & expressing emotion. the streets create a twist on the flow of hiphop. art is expression & u have an opinion on the expression, this alone is worthwhile, from Britney to Bjork to S. Dali to Terry Gilliam. sad thing is most artists beg people to understand this & yet u can barely express a coherent thought, like what mike skinner is saying. U r being destructive for what?it's not your expression, B constructive

  • this guy likes punk music and alot punk music im sorry is talentless, cept the clash and a few others but its long dead and this dickhead is comming on here telling how shit mike skinner is when he doesn't even listen to his lyrics or anythng, anyway i dont give a shit punks are gay!

  • I've heard his fucking lyrics, all they are are everyday fucking modern chav talk. Fucking shit. And if you think punk is dead then you're clearly out of touch with the music industry. All you know is the mainstream chart shit, that isnt music, its mass produced shit. Real music lives on the underground.

    There is no talent at all in talking in typical chav language over a modern shit instrumental that he didnt even write himself. Punk is played by a band, something this cock could never do.

  • If hes not a poet what is he....

    He's a chav. An untalented everyday street fag. He is an insult to music.

  • i don't think you guys got it, its art he's an artist. i don't know why i would thing you people could understand the concept of art and that the point is to have an opinion on the expression of emotion the artist is portraying. he likes punk, you like the streets, wonderful, its all art and has its place point expression and emotion

  • First time I saw that video it was in a gas station and it was mude, but still I knew it was a classic

  • hahaa.. nice one!!

  • Lets push Things forward

  • I dont understand people who post comments critising.. if they dont like it... just dont listen.. simple

  • great.. i love mike skinner
