101fm Lyrics:
Mad
Doing main road tryna get to the peso
Doing up doing up doing up
Mad
Back when me and Avelino used to make tracks
Live and die in the LDN in ends its mad (shits crazy)
trappers and a whole family in the same damn flat (um)
Eve tryna get a salary while Adam out here licking shots to cats
Don’t lack
Shubz on a Friday pulling up at Jbo’s gaff (skurting ay)
2 2 gyal getting moved by 2 2 man (2 2 man ay)
Come off the decks if you can’t mix its not happening (nah)
More time gunshots in the air like bap bap bap bap (mad)
Book smart with the bars but I never learnt that from school (nah)
16 doing up radios sets I was spinning up all them fools (spinning em spinning em ay)
Times I would get home late to my mumzie’s crib
Simbi who are you with?
What have you done?
Where have you been?
Shit (damn)
Tears in my eyes real tears when ken got nicked (ken got nabbed)
Tore everyone apart but the law don’t give 2 shits (don’t give 2 fucks)
Just another black boy in the system doing time in bin (true)
But he had a heart full of gold, good intent with a smile so big
He did ay
We used to have dreams of getting out the flats (getting out the flats)
Playing PS2
Crash bandicoot, mortal combat (know them ones)
I mastered my flow like Dizzee and Busta (legends)
And one day buy real weed from a Rasta (real Rasta man)
Slicking down baby hairs way before insta (way before insta)
Time when I had a dummy on my chain all for one likkle pose in a picture (snap snap ay)
Year 11 when I started putting the trees in rizzla (smoke smoke)
And to the niggas that fell off in this ting no we don’t miss ya
No we don’t
But sometimes you have to go missing (missing missing)
Need a way out I was hoping praying and wishing (praying and wishing)
Now im doing up some madtings doing up big tings
Still im in ends when I pass through juniors plain ready on sight when I walk in Wayne shouts out yo wagwan sistren
Killem with flows
One by one or I killem in bulk
Simz is the only one on her job
Its bait everyone I London knows (um)
Bu8t still they don’t wanna give no props but life good when you make this much doe
Im laid back I’m good I’m easy
Old school it was too damn easy
Ina my Air Force one new era hat (era hat)
Playing PS2
Crash bandicoot, mortal combat (mortal combat old school)
Used to bump train and dip the conductor
Now I can buy
Whole heapa ting from a Rasta (bare tings)
We used to have dreams of getting out the flats (Ooo we did we did)
Bus rides to the studio just to make tracks (EC1 days)
I mastered my flow like Luda and Kano (true)
Ask Lou and Reece and them man trust me they know (trust me they know, they know they know)
listening to new sounds of Little Simz
Little Slimz
This is 101FM
Were live at ya
Top of the flats
Can’t see us but you can hear us
Were loving it you’re loving it
Sweet as a fucking nut

[@Duck-jc9ox]

It's an Apex Twin sample I think, 1990s electronic music

[@vibe7416]

what type of music is this

[@bedlambeats599]

@@Duck-jc9ox She didn't use any samples. This is probably just an Asian song she had replayed or one of her producers had the midi.

[@Duck-jc9ox]

@@bedlambeats599 ? If it was "just an Asian song", it would be a sample of "an Asian song." And if a producer "had a midi" this would mean someone else wrote the music. What are you trying to prove? The sample is the most appealing aspect of this track, and it's a very identifiable form of music, mid 90s electronic music. It's complexity and warmth is very distinctive.

[@russtoday]

I just got turned onto Little Simz and I do not understand how this only has 2 million views. The production on this is fantastic and this beat is real unique. I've become a big fan fast.

I think it's supposed to be some kind of "selfmade cheap software" beat you'd make as a teenager when starting to have fun with rap, early 00s style - atleast I got that nostalgic vibe, being in the same age group as simz, love it

[@fineygettys8266]

🔥🔥🔥

[@TheJohnsofDoes]

Yeah. It's capturing that Music2000 sound that was on a lot of the early dubplates before Grime was even called Grime. None of em had studios or access to em unless you was part of the Garage or DnB scenes, so a lot of the beats were made on the Playstation in Music 2000, or just GM MIDI from whatever soundcard they had sequenced with a cracked copy of Fruity Loops 1 or 2 and a lot of the beats where inspired by console music. Pretty obvious a lot of the Eski shit, Danny Weed etc as one example is inspired by the music in the first Crash Bandicoot.

[@varunnarain50]

The beat got my attention immediately, then the rhymes, flow and wordplay started and I can't stop replaying this song. What a brilliant MC.

[@Ldcow]

Big respect to this woman
