Review: Grime music is not the first genre that comes to mind when thinking of men expressing their softer feelings. Well, Manchester's ShowDem is about to change all that with possibly the first ever grime tune about the joys of parenthood. Dedicated to his first born, "New Arrival" is a tune that begins and ends with samples of his little one. In between we get a bouncy hip-hop/dancehall hybrid with plenty of bottom and airy soft synth melodies. Kiel meanwhile brings the ferocity on a rework that introduces heavy drums; lots of Dubstep influenced bass snarls and urgent effects.
