View this Thread in Original format

Are all Drum and Bass MCs great or am I just infatuated with this portion of the culture?
Any bad MCs or sets which horrible MCs?

These two are the best damn MCs I've seen:

Well I've heard a fair bit of bad mcing, and that guy actually improves the tune, so I'll put that as good.

as a rule, mc's are dog awful. Some in dnb like Eksman for example make me want to slice my ears off. A good MC should know the basics of tunes, and not scream over the top of certain bits, just try to enhance things. In history a few have managed to do it, but many fail. However as I grew up on rave tapes, I've developed the ability to not hear most of them, just switch off to it, so long as the tape wasn't so poorly mastered that the MC was way too loud which happened in a few cases.

when i think of DnB MCs i think of LTJ Bukem and MC Conrad... i would definetly enjoy it without him, but seems like people really like him.. they always tour together

Not a fan of MC's at all, in D&B/garage/etc. They tend to talk too much, repeating the same stuff over and over, and get in the way of the music.

I'd rather not hear them over atmospheric or jazzy drum 'n bass. Say what you like about their effectiveness, but a guy shouting "ALL THE PEOPLE IN THE PLACE" is just not classy. Ruins the mood for me.

Truth. Why would you want some dude who can't shut up ruining the vibe? Makes zero sense to me.

SuspicionVandit could you tell me what the track is that's playing in the first sample please?

99% of the time I cannot stand MC's, especially when they do it in the style shown in that first clip, I'm sure I heard the words "battyman crew" in there somewhere haha

However, sometimes I do enjoy it when the MC actually sings and harmonises with the music rather than "rapping" for example, Stamina MC and Dynamite MC
