Wiley, the man who gave birth to the style that has become known as grime,
is coming to Edinburgh to support his latest album Play Time Is Over,
released on Big Dada. The launch night for the album was held in Cargo,
London an Arches-inspired venue with similar acoustics. Getting support
from his crew Roll Deep and the Boy Better Know Camp it was a night of
musical carnage. Wiley is embarking on his first UK tour since the release
of his first album, Treading on Thin Ice on XL, and little is known of what
to expect but a taste of his forthcoming performance can be viewed on
Youtube. In support of Wiley will be Glasgow's Jae P who has been busy
over the month of August ripping up stages for the likes of Akon and Kanye
West to promote his Unsigned and Hungry EP. [Omar Jenning]
