EXCLUSIVE: Asher D, P Money And Star.One Take It Back With “We Run The Show”

Last week, production duo Star.One dropped a huge new single, "We Run The Show" with two of the UK's most iconic emcees, P Money and Top Boy Asher D. A nod to the glory days of So Solid, when the UKG crew conquered the charts and dominated London clubs, "We Run The Show" combines a snappy Channel U-ready production with the pure fire of 2017 grime.

So Solid Crew may have disbanded, but Asher D is back in the limelight thanks to one or two guest verses and some rather big news relating to his Drake-approved Top Boy series (more on that later). The new video nods to Asher D's past, present and future as the two spitters test each other with some whiplash bars over a snappy, high-energy garage beat.

"The track is a throwback to the So Solid era but in a 2017 style," Star.One explained to TRENCH via email. "So we wanted to portray that with the video. We wanted something that represented the energy and essence of the early grime beginnings yet also make something quite epic and cinematic. Obviously, having Asher D on the track, we had to make sure that visually, the track could stand up to Top Boy. To be honest to do a video with a load of So Solid members is a straight gas-ment to our teenage selves."

Peep the Ray Fiasco-directed video above and see how many cameos and Channel U references you can spot. And keep an eye out for an official Top Boy announcement to set the record straight.
