3. Rewd Adams feat. Black The Ripper 鈥� Drift Away

My first runner-up for Underground Track of the Month comes from London-based rapper/singer, . He鈥檚 teamed up with north London鈥檚 to create this laid-back number called Drift Away. Although I love the hype tracks, it鈥檚 always cool to hear those tunes that you can really zone out to, this one has a real chilled out vibe to it.

2. Tre Mission 鈥� Maxin Everything

My second runner-up comes from a guy name . He鈥檚 an MC from Canada who is making a lot of noise within the UK grime scene at the moment. Tre partnered with Essex-based producer, on this potential club banger. It has a bit of a bassline feel to it as well, which is always a hit in my books!

1. TRACK OF THE MONTH: Kozzie, Marger, Merky Ace, Rival, Ego & Scrufizzer - Spartan Remix

Something really exciting has been taking place in the grime scene recently, which we critics have been calling, "the new wave.鈥� This is basically a group of up-and-coming MCs who are really bringing back what it means to be grime, with their gritty bars and flow. It has kind of re-energised the grime scene. Introducing MCs听, , , , & , who have all jumped on the remix of -produced underground hit of 2010.

And finally... my SCOTTISH STREET TRACK OF THE MONTH: Simba and Profisee - Rubicon Don

I鈥檝e chosen Simba and Profisee鈥檚 Rubicon Don as my favourite Scottish street track this month. The lyrical content is comical; it鈥檚 basically about drinking the soft drink in the title! I鈥檓 also feeling the production on this one - it's got quite a Major Lazer feel to it, which each MC manages to flow over effortlessly.

[And you can re-live Profisee's performance on our stage T in The Park 2010 here.]
