Interview: Chuckie Online x JME - Real Talk Chuckie Online
After a brief hiatus #RealTalkWithChuckieOnline makes an epic comeback with the second in depth interview following MOBO Award winner, Stormzy. This time going into conversation with musician, entrepreneur and Boy Better Know CEO, JME.
It's fair to say that any sort of JME conversation is a rare commodity, thus this lengthy and fascinating conversation has been broken down into 2 parts.
Offering a widely alternative prospective to your typical Grime emcee, Jme discusses the following topics in Part 1 of the interview:
- The approach in which he perceives his accomplishments and how he continues to aspire for more
- Not compromising style or personality to fit into the industry
- How to stand out as a new emcee
- Choosing not to go to Jamaica for the video shooting of "Shaky" and his stance when it comes to decisions within BBK
- Choosing not to attend the Brit Awards for the Kanye West performance
Along with his love and passion for music plus wanting more growth in the scene, JME takes the hot seat and really opens up to Chuckie Online. Over the course of the 30 minute conversation it's clear to see that JME is not fuelled by money or power. Instead we witness an individual who has made huge leaps within the industry by remaining true to himself.

KeepinItGrimy x JME - Integrity Documentary
JME is a legend in Grime for many reasons. From his earliest days on Heat FM and De Ja Vu spitting bars with Meridian Crew. Going straight from secondary school to pirate radio and spitting over such riddims as Straight and DTI or his earliest productions such as Meridian Walk remix and Staggering. Through to his breakout single ‘Serious’. Then his vision for the Boy Better Know brand, revolutionising the mixtape and merchandise market in Grime. His creation of the Tropical sound and so much more since. He has always stood by his art. He has innovated, experimented and ultimately succeeded in many different avenues.
He embodies the spirit and ethos of KeepinItGrimy. And that is why for our debut documentary we could have had no more fitting subject than the Boy Better Know CEO.
In this short film we get an insight into the motivations behind JME’s work ethic and practises. We shine a light on his creative process, both musically and visually. And we join him as he embarks on yet another pioneering business venture.
We hope this piece can serve as inspiration and motivation for the next generation of artists who want to defend their musical identity and have a chance to be successful without feeling forced to work with a mainstream music industry that, after more than 10 years, still doesn’t understand how to work with Grime music.
Directed by Ethan Wroth. Filmed by Ethan Wroth and Jack Bushell. Produced by Logan Sama.

Music: Skepta - Shutdown
We have to wait a little longer for Konnichiwa the album, but hey might as well #Shutdown the place in the meantime. The use of soundbite from someone who was shaken by Ye's performance at The Brits is slick.
