The Godfather, MC Creed, shares how he changed the scene hidden behind a DJ booth, becoming the genre鈥檚 first ever MC.
Taking inspiration from the Jungle scene and Caribbean sound system culture, in the early 2000s, London crews Heartless, So Solid and Pay As You Go emerged as UKG's next superstars.
