Grime Kids, the TV show


Grime music has taken the world by storm over the past decade and its origins can be traced back to humble East London. One of the pioneers of the grime movement is none other than world-renowned DJ Target, a man who has been at the forefront of the genre for the past twenty years. Raised in East London, Target was a member of the Pay As U Go garage collective and legendary Roll Deep grime crew and has been documenting his journey in music and the rise of grime for years.

Five years ago, this documentation took the form of a book, "Grime Kids," which became a best-seller, reaching number one in five different categories. The book details DJ Target's journey from a young aspiring DJ to a seasoned veteran and gives readers a unique perspective of the grime scene.

DJ Target's story has now been picked up by Mammoth Screen, who have decided to adapt the book into a TV series. The script has been written by Theresa Ikoko, who has expertly adapted the book for the screen, bringing DJ Target's story to life. Filming has now finished and the TV show is set to reach our screens this summer.

This TV series will give audiences a glimpse into the early days of grime and the community that helped to shape the genre. DJ Target's story is an inspiring one and the TV show promises to be an insightful journey through the rise of grime. From the basements of East London to the world stage, this is a story that needs to be told.

For fans of grime music and anyone who is interested in the genre, this TV series is a must-watch. Whether you're a seasoned grime fan or being forced by your kids to give it a go, this TV show will give you an inside look at the rise of grime and the musicians who helped to shape the genre.

So, get ready for an incredible journey through the rise of grime with DJ Target and the Grime Kids TV show, releasing this summer!
