#GrimeKidButIRapSick - West London Veteran RAW SMILEZ An avid part of a UK Hip-Hop/Grime scene that cultivates London & lifelong resident of Ladbroke Grove #NHC. Raw Smilez has the gift of relating yet simultaneously challenging the mindset of the masses with witty wordplay & controversial subject matter. Not only a Key member of influential W/NW Ldn grime crew Hot Off Da Block #HODB Smilez was also heavily linked to street collective Get Money Quick #GMQ amounting to over a decades worth of material featuring some of the UK's finest talent. From what seems as an extended sabbatical from music, which he himself describes as being "the hardest few years of my life" Raw Smilez is back firstly with the eagerly awaited Black Russian Project #OUTNOW & working on long awaited E.P #GoodMusicBadHabits, both very different to his last solo project #NoMoreGames (Hosted by S.A.S Eurogang) it’s exciting times for, not only for those ready and waiting but Raw Smilez.. the 'Black Russian' Himself.
