Nasty Crew (commonly stylised as N.A.S.T.Y., a backronym for Natural Artistic Sounds Touching You)[14][15][16] was a British grime crew from East London, with its members primarily from Newham. The group was founded by DJ Marcus Nasty and MCs Sharky Major and Stormin in 1999,[1] and its membership underwent frequent changes in the following years,[5] with most artists forming or joining successor crews by 2006. It is regarded as a pioneering collective within grime music history and several of its former members have charted in the United Kingdom, including Jammer, D Double E, Ghetts, and Kano.[5][3][16][17][18]

History

[edit]

1999–2001: Formation

[edit]

Nasty Crew was founded by Plaistow-based artists Marcus Nasty, Sharky Major and Stormin in 1999[1] as a UK garage crew, when they were teenagers.[19][10][17][20] Prior to the crew's formation, Sharky was performing at youth clubs and house parties, typically alongside Crazy Titch and Demon.[21] Stormin had previously been a jungle MC in YGS Crew alongside Armour and Dizzee Rascal (then a DJ by the name Dizzy D),[22] performing in Bow youth club the Lincoln Arches and house parties,[23][24] and already had a reputation for freestyling, beatboxing and clashing other artists.[25][6]

Sharky, who was originally a garage DJ as well as a rapper, met Marcus Nasty at a DJ competition where he failed to progress to the final and decided to MC at the event instead.[21] Marcus, who already had a Flava FM pirate radio show, asked Sharky to join him for an appearance; Sharky also invited Demon, who was unavailable, so Stormin was brought in by a mutual friend in his place and the three established Nasty Crew after a fellow presenter gave them the name during their first broadcast.[25] Stormin invited Armour to join the group shortly after its inception,[6] and Dizzee participated in several of the crew's early radio sets, also collaborating with them on the dubplate "Ready 4 War" which later appeared on the 20th anniversary edition of his debut album Boy in da Corner.[25]

2001–2003: Additions to lineup and Jahmek the World releases

[edit]

Marcus Nasty spent two years in prison between mid-2001 and November 2003,[1] and during this period his brother, Mak 10, became the crew's primary DJ.[26] D Double E, Hitman Hyper and Jammer each individually joined the crew over the course of three or four months, after their own Newham-based crew 187 had disbanded following in-fighting and had given up their own Flava FM show.[25][27][9][4] As D Double E remembers it:

One day at school Sharky came up to me and said he’d heard we weren’t on the station anymore and said we join their crew. I was kinda sceptical because he was a younger, but I jumped on a set with them and enjoyed it, so I brought Hyper and Jammer with me next time.[27]

By 2002, the crew had secured a Monday night show on Deja Vu FM, through which they went on to gain regional prominence in London.[16][17] Fans would record the shows onto bootleg cassette tapes which they shared with friends across the country, furthering the group's popularity and attracting regional bookings outside of London.[28]

Jammer and his productions are credited by Marcus Nasty with the evolution of the group's sound from garage to grime.[19] Early songs recorded to his instrumentals included D Double E's "Birds in the Sky" and Sharky Major's "Chinaman".[25] Jammer also produced the crew's October 2002 debut single "Good U Know", which sold out "on promo".[29][28][17][15] Kano, who knew Sharky growing up,[27] and Monkstar, then known as Monkey and a former member of D Double E's prior crew M.A.D., joined the crew at the same time in 2002.[30][28] The pair were asked to prove themselves with a back-to-back freestyle in Jammer's basement, after which they were invited into the group.[25] Jammer claims that he was asked to choose between Kano and Dizzee Rascal, and made the decision based on whose tones he felt would best complement his productions.[31]

Jammer's label, Jahmek the World, became an outlet for the group's releases including the crew's December 2002 single "Take You Out",[28] his 2003 single "Destruction",[32] and Kano's 2003 single "Vice Versa (Boys Love Girls)", later featured as a bonus track on his debut album Home Sweet Home.[31][33][2][17] Stormin and Sharky Major's song "Day By Day" was also originally slated for a 2003 release.[28] During this time, Mak 10's cousin Nasty Jack began inviting Nasty Crew onto his West London-based Freeze FM show on a regular basis,[34] and was later recognised as a member of the crew in 2004.[35] Ghetts, then known as Ghetto, had been in correspondence with Sharky and Stormin during his time served in HMP Huntercombe for car crimes.[25][36][37] He was released on 4 August 2003 and immediately joined the group; his first recorded song was "My Mind Worx", which appeared on Jammer's Lord of the Decks compilation.[25] Another Nasty Crew single, "Cock Back", was released in September 2003; produced by Terror Danjah, it saw Hitman Hyper and D Double E joined by guests Crazy Titch and Riko Dan. Footsie formally joined the crew following Marcus Nasty's release from jail,[25] while Jammer left the group in November 2003 following a public dispute about unpaid royalties from Jahmek the World releases.[15][38][39][19][40] Despite this, plans remained at the time to release a Nasty Crew album featuring several Jammer productions.[39]

2003–2005: Departure of members, Lord of the Mics and Younger Nasty

[edit]

D Double E, Footsie and Monkstar had left the group by January 2004, due to a disagreement about Double soliciting live bookings in the name of the collective.[41][1][15] Kano signed to 679 Recordings as a solo artist on his 19th birthday in May 2004.[42] In July, Kano appeared on the first edition of Jammer's battle rap DVD series Lord of the Mics, clashing Wiley, which brought him further attention from the industry.[43][31] Younger Nasty, a then-new faction of the group consisting of its junior members, appeared on the same DVD, teaming up with local crew Kids in da Hood to clash North West London's SLK.[44] As of July 2004, Younger Nasty was made up of Lil Nasty, Griminal, Snoopy, Sub Zero and Lightnin.[45] In September, Marcus Nasty announced that the group would release a double CD "street album", with the first disc to feature him, Stormin and garage MC Sharky P and the second to feature Kano, Demon, Ghetts and Younger Nasty.[46] The album was never released.

In March 2005, the group announced to RWD Magazine what they termed a "merger" of Younger Nasty into Nasty Crew,[47] with junior members such as Lil Nasty, Griminal, Brutal, Lightnin and Yunga Hunga incorporated into the main crew, some of them having previously appeared as a part of Griminal's crew M.I.C.[13] Nasty Crew collaborated with producer Agent X on two songs released in April 2005: "Nasty Bonanza", a single which also featured members of Dynasty Crew, and "City Life", a song in which Stormin, Demon and Big Seac appeared as Nasty Crew. Both were released via Agent X's label, Heatseeker, with the latter exclusively found on the RWD AAA Mixtape Vol. 1: Access All Artists, mixed by Logan Sama.[48] Kano, Ghetts and Demon left the crew later in 2005 due to a fall-out between Marcus Nasty and the newly signed and managed Kano,[15] events Ghetts later referenced on the 2021 song "Autobiography".

2005–2008: 'Myspace era' and N.A.S.T.Y. UK

[edit]

A later iteration of the group was fronted by Stormin and Nasty Jack, who independently organised and funded the group's recording sessions and release campaigns.[6] "In the Place" and "Run 4 Cover", both produced by Rossi B and Luca, were released as a double single in 2005.[13][49] The latter features the first appearance of Stormin's then-anonymous alias Teddy Bruckshot. The group collaborated with producer Blackjack on the single "Nasty Gang Banga" in 2005, released via DJ Cameo's label On a Level.[6][50] The song was independently re-released in August 2006 under the name "Girls Love N.A.S.T.Y." as a double single alongside "Run It Up", originally taken from Stormin's 2005 mixtape Storm the Streets, accompanied by a combined music video. A remix of "Run It Up" featuring Wizzy B and Demon was also released. The group opened for Joe Budden in Amsterdam while promoting the single,[50] and the music video reportedly won an Urban Music Award following an online public vote.[35] They intended to release a third single entitled "This Song" during what Jack refers to as the "Myspace era"; the track, which was produced by Sir Spyro, was featured on radio playlists but was not released.[6]

Some of the crew's last appearances during this era were under the name N.A.S.T.Y. UK, particularly associated with the online output of the younger Ramsay brothers Lil Nasty and Griminal.[15][51] Griminal's 2008 mixtape It's Not Just Barz and its singles "It's Alot" and "Not Just Bars" were credited to the labels N.A.S.T.Y. UK and Alwayz Recording.[52]

Legacy

[edit]

Although the crew collectively never achieved chart success or a major record deal, several of its members have since launched successful solo careers. After leaving Nasty Crew, D Double E reached number eleven on the UK Singles Chart and received a MOBO Award in 2004 for the Lethal Bizzle song "Pow! (Forward)".[53][54] [55] He later formed Newham Generals with Footsie, Monkstar and DJ Tubby, regarded as some of the first dubstep MCs,[15][7][24] and has since charted as a solo artist, including with his 2018 debut album Jackuum!, which reached number 61 on the UK Albums Chart,[56] and "Fresh N Clean (Silence the Critics)", created for IKEA's 2019 Christmas advert, which reached number 47 in the UK.[57][56] Jammer went on to form his own crew Neckle Camp before joining Boy Better Know.[31] He reached number 111 in the UK with the 2016 Skepta collaboration "Detox",[58] and number 58 with the 2020 Frisco collaboration "Red Card".[59] Griminal briefly signed to All Around the World, part of major label Universal, in 2010, although has never charted.[60][61]

Kano's 2005 debut album Home Sweet Home reached number 36 in the UK and featured appearances from fellow alumni Ghetts, Demon and D Double E.[62] It was certified Gold by the BPI in 2013.[63] His 2016 album Made in the Manor, his first with Parlophone, reached number eight on the UK Albums Chart,[62] won a MOBO Award, and was shortlisted for the Mercury Prize. Certified Gold by the BPI,[63] it includes various lyrics where he reminisces back to 2004, when he was a member of Nasty Crew.[64] His 2019 single "Class of Deja", which features D Double E and Ghetts, charted at number 79 in the UK[62] and is named after the crew's former Deja Vu FM radio show.

Ghetts and Lightnin went on to form The Movement with Wretch 32, Scorcher, Devlin, Mercston and DJ Unique.[65][66][67] Ghetts independently achieved chart success in the UK with his first two albums, the number 23 entry Rebel with a Cause in 2014 and the number 30 entry Ghetto Gospel: The New Testament in 2018.[68] He signed to Warner in 2021 to release his third album Conflict of Interest.[69] The album is the highest-charting by a Nasty Crew alumnus to date, reaching number two on the UK Albums Chart.[70] His fourth album and last with Warner, On Purpose, with Purpose, reached number 29 in 2024[68] and was shortlisted for the Mercury Prize.[71]

Co-founder Marcus Nasty secured a long-standing residency on Rinse FM, through which he has been credited as an early champion of the UK funky genre.[19][51] Sharky Major later founded the events company, record label and clothing brand Grime Originals, which has featured appearances from both pioneers of grime and newer artists at its club nights.[24] Stormin became a prominent MC in the jump up style of drum and bass, later forming the supergroup SaSaSaS with Macky Gee, DJ Phantasy, MC Skibadee, Shabba D and Harry Shotta. He remained an active grime artist at the same time, including under his Teddy Bruckshot alias, until his death from skin cancer in February 2018.[72]

BRIT Award nominee CASisDEAD has credited the crew's Deja Vu FM show with introducing him to grime,[73] as has Grammy Award-winning producer and songwriter Scribz Riley.[74]
