Grim Sickers

Grim Sickers is a grime MC and rapper of Indian, Jamaican and British descent. Raised in Oakhurst and Abbey Meads, Sickers studied plumbing at Swindon College and later went on to work for Honda. Due to his remote location, he commutes to Bristol and London on a regular basis for musical ventures. Sickers made his live debut in 2006. His early foray into MCing mostly involved him spitting over dubstep instrumentals; his first two mixtapes, General Knowledge Part 1 and Part 2, were released in 2009, and featured several local musicians. His third mixtape, Dan Diggy Dan (Third Time’s a Charm), was released on 19 July 2010, and saw appearances from P Money and Double S. His next mixtape, the rap-centric The Other Side of the Fence, was released in 2013, although it was not until he clashed Grimmy later that year on Lord of the Mics 5 that Sickers began to receive attention in the grime scene. He gained further recognition with the AK diss “Chop Him Up and Tesco Bag Him” (2014), which was used as the basis for Ghetts‘ “Death Penalty” and later evolved into the all-star cut “Black Bin Bag Him” featuring thirteen other MCs. This was the catalyst in a prolific two years for Sickers, which saw him release two mixtapes that combined rap and grime: 100 Bags and All Black Forever. Sickers achieved viral success on Twitter after freestyling bars on radio which later went on to form the basis of his 2016 track “Kane”. The Swifta Beater-produced track, which uses a flow he crafted alongside Nasty Jack, was signed by Mike Skinner. Veteran MC Jme appeared on a remix of the track in February 2017, and two other official remixes surfaced: Ghetts‘ Undertaker Mix and the All Star Remix. On Halloween 2017, Sickers dropped All Black Forever 2, a rap-oriented sequel to his 2015 mixtape which sees him grace instrumentals from emo rap artists such as Lil Peep and XXXTENTACION among others. His debut album is forecast for an early 2018 release, and has spawned two singles: the garage-inspired “Open the Till”, which drafts in Mike Skinner and Ghetts, and reworks an old school Funky Dee lyric into its chorus, and “Save Me”, which features a chorus from YASeeN ROSaY.
