Grime Kids: music to our ears
From episode 1’s opening sequence, Grime Kids aims to smash stereotypes. In a heart-thumping black-and-white scene, violence looks inevitable as audiences are dragged into the world of gritty gangland drama. But when the playground battle commences, the weapons of choice turn out to be water pistols and handfuls of flour. It’s a powerful introduction to the Technicolour, joyous world of Theresa Ikoko’s Grime Kids.
