HERITAGE: This Grime Lovers Anthem Sees Flirta D, DirtyDapz, Skata And Dotstar Promise To "Never Disrespect You" (2006)


January 26, 2022

Known for flying the flag for North West London at a time when grime was dominated by voices from South and East (with a few exceptions, of course), SLK were heroes in the early-mid 2000s. Although famed for their fearlessness in clashes (SLK vs. Roll Deep remains an iconic meeting), tracks like "Never Disrespect You" showed us the crew's softer, more melodic potential.

Lifted from the 2000 & Rebore Sticks comp in 2006, "Never Disrespect You" arrived in the twilight years of SLK, shortly before they imploded under the mounting pressure of their success. It may be a bit rough around the edges, but it deserves its place in history just as much as "Hype Hype" or "North Weezie".
