Grime History Lesson with DJ Argue & Logan Sama | Subtle Radio

In this episode of Grime History Lessons with DJ Argue, we're delving deep into the world of Grime alongside Logan Sama, a central figure in the genre. From his iconic radio shows at Rinse FM and Kiss FM, Logan's been a driving force behind Grime since its early days. His Friday night Rinse show became a Grime sensation, featuring live MC sessions and "War Reports." It didn't take long before London's Kiss FM recognised the Grime wave and introduced the show to their lineup in 2005. Logan's late-night Grime show quickly gained immense popularity and stayed on the airwaves for almost a decade. This episode offers an exclusive look into the evolution of Grime, narrated by one of its essential influencers.

These videos might not pay a lot, but they are worth so much to the fans. Trust me. I love this content. The stuff you can learn from watching is priceless

[@LTNZbeats]

PRICELESS to us grime fanatics on the other side of the world.

[@majesticonline]

A brilliant watch! First came across Logan on the Uptown Forums back in the day. He is a music purist through and through and if anything Grime owes him a hell of a lot! Selfless in his obsession of the sound and protecting it

So SO SO glad argue and many other grime historians and archivists are putting in work to this day even though it seems like there isn't an audience, it may be small but grime is soo important to those that do care. and us older grime fans that have been following for 20 years have seen it blow up and "die" so many times over the years. as long as people keep making it i and many others around the world are waiting to listen. and the purest form of grime is live, so the fact people are still doing insane radio sets keeps me alive. Love from NZ

When Logan talks about recognisable riffs, and being able to hum a tune and people will know it, he nails it. That's what really made Grime so impactful for me. The big tunes stood out with these really recognisable top line hooks.

[@Jimbob2k]

Love this series keep it coming

[@adamcrafts3032]

Fully agree about 'DJ Wonder - What', big moment in the Dubstep crossover. Skream doing it the other way with Midnight Request Line, Tapped, etc

[@02PAYNEJ]

Trust! big tune

[@JakeLDS]

Logan understands systems, he's able to connect the dots between many different things and see how they effect one another. His outlook on the state of Grime towards the end are so well considered, for example understanding the the economy has an impact on the state of Grime. I think what he was trying to say at the end but maybe avoiding because of the stigma is that he thinks he has ASC (Autism). I think that's exactly what makes him so talanted though.

[@germalean88g77]

How many youtube channels is dj argue gona flop on???

[@andrewforeman2168]

The way he digs out KISS FM for paying him NOTHING (ok so £50 but it might as well be nothing!!) for doing his show and not once did they give him a pay increase!! Let's be honest I think anyone would be sore over that although SURLY he could of been like: "I want AT LEAST £250 a show or I'm gone cos I've been doing this for YEARS now and your taking the piss." (I mean how much money must a radio station like KISS be generating in the first place!!

[@thecoldasicecrew-djgstylez2810]

Big up Keeping it Grimey. ‘Hey Logan, press that silver button on the decks!!!’ So many through balls 🎱 Sub’s and Dub’s 🏴‍☠️ 🫡
