GET TO KNOW - CONTINENTAL GT

The Birmingham Hip Hop Scene has produced some of the hardest Artists and Producers in the UK and although they are often overlooked by the scene in London they have gone on to create their own scene which is extremely vibrant at the moment with Hip Hop Artists like Malik'El President' (MD7),BIG.V,Meeks, S SQUAD,Gorilla Sawnoff,Justice,Royalists as well as Grime Mcs Trilla,Booma B,Tornado not to forget Lady Leshurr as well as a whole set of talented new comers (hold tight Romo,Stomz,Shemskie,K.B!!) but among the brightest of all the new Artists to emerge from the second citys burgoning scene is Continental GT who is a Fly & flash bredda,but not in a bad way as he thoroughly keeps things motivational (Getting it in!) is a term he often uses and with a name like Continental GT what else would you expect?
 If I were to compare Continental GT to another UK Artist it would possibly be somewhere between Blade Brown and B-Dubble as he shares the same cocksure swagger patios tinged punchlines and Push it to the Limit mentality! GTs Music is definitely one for the Bigboy Trappers and Hustlers out there with Flossy lines like ("Real fly boys,yeah I know you heard of us,no jewellery the dress code does enough,no security the goons are right behind us, and champagne rose is what we bust!") and the roadman dem("i see alot of breddas claiming that they go hard!Im like go hard? which part?they aint true religion jeans your a known fraud!stop lying to the people people,Im nice with a pen,fam cool with the pencil and we can get it popping over this instrumental!") notice how he rhymed Hard with Fraud!(only 0121 Artists can get away with that!)
As an MC and Lyricist Continental GT comes across extremely capable of upholding the standards and has proved this by Recording with some of UKs  Heavyweights Sincere and Malik on the remix of Rhiannas 'Go Hard' Expect to see a full interview with Continental GT in the Grime Report soon,but for now check this out
