Critics Review

‘There are very few better placed than Roony to document the Grime scene – and he does so perfectly’ – Romesh Ranganathan

‘Reading Risky’s book, you see how the narrative strands of his life are woven into the very fabric of the Grime scene. Listening to Grime music, it’s impossible not to hear the reverberations of his life and the indelible contributions he has made to music culture in the UK. As grime continues its movement across the globe, RiskyRoadz remains part of both its unshakeable foundations and its evolution’ – Will Poulter
