YGG have the sauce. The rising grime trio from London consists of PK, Lyrical Strally, and Saint, and their energy is infectious on new track "Bad." The three MCs float over bassline hero DJ Q's vocal chops and crisp drums, just as they have on countless radio sets over the past year or two.

"Bad" is coming out on Logan Sama's KeepinItGrimy label, and Sama breaks down why YGG, and this tune, are special. "YGG for me are full of that youthful energy and excitement that has been the signature of grime music since the turn of the millennium. Following on from their wicked track 'Okay' which perfectly fused 2-step garage vibes with the cheeky charisma of grime, I've been hammering 'Bad' recently."

"DJ Q is a real legend championing the bassline scene but has worked in both grime and garage," Logan explains. "His production brings a proper tropical vibe to the track. It's been working in my underground grime club sets just as well as my early evening shows on BBC 1xtra alongside big commercial hits.”

"Bad" is out this Friday, March 31, via KeepinItGrimy. Listen below and pre-order here
