3. Raider – When You Hear This One
My third favourite track of the month comes from a Wolverhampton-based MC who goes by the name of , who is also one of the many members of Midlands-based grime crew, .
StayFresh, as a unit, have broken down a lot of barriers when it comes to grime music from outside of London, proving that they, too, can release music of a high standard, just like their London peers. Their work ethic is also something to be reckoned with. Raider's When You Hear This One is a straight grime club banger.

2. Trim – I Am
My second pick comes from the legend that is . Having been a member of Roll Deep back in the day, he's gained a real cult following. The east London MC has teamed up with Wolverhampton's for this laid-back, bassline-influenced grime number. You can catch this track on Trim's forthcoming Monkey Features Volume 2 mixtape, which is out on March 28.
1. TRACK OF THE MONTH: Merky Ace – Every Time
My favourite track of the month comes from south London's . His angry flow and creative bars over this Flava D-produced track caught my attention straight away.
Merky Ace is one of my favourite grime MCs around at the moment, one I'm sure we'll be hearing a lot more of in the near future - well, one hopes so, anyway. You can catch this track on Merky's ‘Blue Battlefield' mixtape, out on April 4.
SCOTTISH TRACK OF THE MONTH: Kobi Onyame Feat. Mista L - Congratulations
Kobi Onyame has teamed up with for the very personal Congratulations. Kobi opens up about some of the situations he’s been through in life and compares it to others around him. Now, to some, it might come across as if he’s hating on other people's accomplishments, and to others (which includes myself), he’s just showing everyone that he’s on a different path in life. If someone is doing bigger and better things than you, carry on congratulating them. It’ll be your time soon!
