Kush Hour TV x Stefflon Don

๐ŸŽˆ๐Ÿ––๐Ÿพ๐Ÿ˜Š Hey Kush Fam๐ŸŽˆ๐ŸŽˆ๐ŸŽˆWe're higher than these red balloons right now...!!!๐ŸŽˆ๐ŸŽˆ๐ŸŽˆ#JAH LOVE & Praises to the Most High! We have one of the most beautiful women in music right now...Stefflon Don...and she's bringing it! With an unmistakable Jamaica-via-London inflection, the MC and singer whose music was described by Fader Magazine as defiant and unpredictable with a blend of influences "can switch between a rap beat and a grime beat as easily as she moves between her London accent and patois.โ€

๐ŸŽˆBorn Stephanie Allen, in the industrial British city of Birmingham to Jamaican parents, she grew up surrounded by the reggae her dad would play in the house. When she was a small child, the family moved to the Netherlands, where she also began listening to a lot of โ€œbubbling.โ€ Bubbling is a Dutch sub-genre of dancehall, invented in 1988 when reggae and dub DJ Moortje played a dancehall record at a higher speed, that remains widely popular in the Netherlands. At 14, she moved again, this time to London, where grime was gripping the city. At first, she remembers her โ€œmessed up accentโ€ and her fluency in Dutch setting her apart from the other kids. Eventually, she says, โ€œI discovered my swagger.โ€
