@@abzskismotors what happened to all his old tracks
Elite comment from a man of history💪🏼
If I had a water gun you still couldn't wet me
Take the car keys to the X3
I'll smash your windows and I don't mean XP
16 and I'm bad like Eski
Lone soldier best bring your best team...
Big up SHIFTYYYY. Biggest MC outside of London back in the day
Mad
Nah, meany was well more known especially in manny and up north
@@blazepukka2264meany was good too... They can both be legends and kings of their era. Urban knights and shity ruled the decade... There was never competition so why compare
Grime scene Veteran & UK legend, big interview 👌🏾👑
Eyy good to see you ere Fonzse! You watched this interview a month before me lol 😂
Emotions are high in this video. Hard to see him this depressed and obviously lonely. Such a shame man bug up Shifty massive respect to him. Grew up on his music 👊
This is my cousin one of many!, guy is a complete legend, really really nice you boys reached out to do this interview he deserves not to be forgotten in his bedroom!, Warren listens to music everyday none stop that’s all he does not going to lie my music is country music but Warren never really agreed 😂, spitting bars was always key!... Manchester is a talent creating machine.... 🔥 come from nothing and become something 🔥
I’m always searching across the internet for updates on shifty, but nothing really came about. This Full interview is like a golden ticket! Listened to your music since like 09, crazy. And still do in work! Much love
D Scowy I was in the same boat. Always searching.hope to hear some bars soon.
I was the same bro
Follow his Instagram
Still the same
Man words cannot express what this guy was at. A certain point in time. It would be fine that he fell off If he got the credit he deserves but he doesn't and its infuriating
You can tell he still isn't right after the accident even today, he looks dazed and his voice has changed on a mad one, no disrespect what so ever but I don't believe Shifty will make a come back.. still one of the maddest to do it
yeah he isn't the same person any more. It's a shame, but it can happen to anyone. Brain injuries etc aren't a joke
How can i find him. Loved the lad back in the day. Such a shame.
Know someone who died for a few mins. Cpr gave him enough oxygen to limit brain damage. Brains can heal. Only so much though. Grew up with shifty when I was a little shit. Now I'm a big shit I hope he makes a comeback.
He’s off his fucking nut you man blind?
What accident ? Someone shed some light on this
Shifty put Manchester on the map back in the Bluetooth days when promo was not as big as it is now he smashed it on nothing but MySpace and market street. if he was starting out when social media blew up he would be the number one dog
Big up shifty!! Good to hear your back g🔥🔥💯 big up mic check media every time. Sick interview💯
Man like shifts, nostalgia hearing his voice man, the lyricism he had back in the day was unreal! Look forward to seeing some music from him!
This guy was going round my school in Oxford via bluetooth like mad! this was in 2004-2006
Big up for this. Big up Shifty, can never take away his legacy
Facts, he's the mothership of the entire scene
Reminds me of my teenage days shifty he was the man of Manchester I used to love his music 👑👑👑
Shifty AKA mr Manchester AKA No1 , always be a legend in Manchester!!!!!!!!❤️
Will forever be one of the best!
What a legend my g bringing a massive come up gonna be the full reunion when your back at it
Shifty you are a legend!! Real grime fans know that. Thank you for blessing my childhood with your talent and inspiring me to even want to rap myself
Yesss Shifty , Biggg Uppp , Welcome back !🙏👑💯
Great to see him.
this was deep man, hopefully he comes back strong and stays consistent
........speachless for this one, I had shifty down as the one to watch ahead of guys like devlin and all them around the time. Still gutted we never got to hear 'the graveyard shift' but regardless happy my brother is alive and well. Absolutely legendary figure in the game for me, still reminisce to street life and don't get involved in a regular. Blessings to the g
Let's go shiftz! Bringing back that fire!!
Legendary, clicked straight away
This guy and meany should of been where the Aitches are now ….
Meany defo but Shifty would have been where Bugzy is now before Bugzy got there had the accident not happened 💯
What about wrigz ?
Shifty coming back with pure real talk !!
oi i’m from the south and i’ve been waiting for shiftz to come back! bring back the old school king!
Respect shifts . Nice t see you legend! 👊👊
Wow thank you for this. Man like shifty. The original bad man
Just waiting for the releases bro 🙏
Kanye west - through the wire... It's like shiftys story. And a spooky coincidence,in shiftys Westwood freestyle he even said "I will come out on top like I was Kanye"
They need to make a biography on shifts man! Legend !!
Jim Ferry, fancy seeing you here. I want that fuckin ambient radar detector you stole from me you germy fuck. If I see you about your gonna get fingered yea
Too much love for this guy
Ye man big up shifty he's right wrigz has been in this for so long he deserves it more than anyone
i’m so happy to see this!! shifty was more than the best mc outside of london. all of those guys; slay, rem, trim, go1den etc. all were so good to the kids and put them on. they were all about teaching all helping kids get better with youth work and that. that’s the kind of shit wiley was doing and shifty was only in school and college then
talking absolute wet u
Lee Hambleton you live with your mum shut up
What a legend
Man like Shifty!🏆🏆🏆
Big up shifty! Sickest Westwood freestyle ever dropped, fucking killed it 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
The uk scene needs shifty back ASAP!!
You crossed my mind tonight and I remember I commented on this years ago. Even the views on this interview, you know the power you wielded in those times. History erases everything but you definitely made noise.
Only white guy that could chat to Devlin in those days. Don't think we'll ever have that like that on that music again.
Whoever disliked this is a wanker. Massive shouts to Shifty. I followed you from GYHO vol 1 and I'm not even from Manchester. Legend.
Disliked
I know you're just gonna troll, but what's the point mate.. You don't like Shifty for some reason known only to you and you wanna drop shade on a vid like this. Who hurt you..
Shifty if you read this I'm still a fan! :D Massive shouts to you.
the guy that filled my streets with lights if he guides himself in the right direction shifty can pop off needs to do a link up with aitch for sure
Love you my guy, 😊 I felt that waz it's hard and people take the piss bless
Big up Shifty!! 💯❤️🙏🙌💫‼️
Shifty will alway be a legend.... Best to do it in the early 2000s
Someone needs to set up a go fund me for shifty I swear to god man! He deserves a few quid man he's a fucking legend
Legendary
Watching this back, you man were spot on with Kay Rico he was on the Rap Game on BBC 3 he did well on it tbf
The streets will never forget Shifty what a Don absolute legend of the mic just a real shame it came to an abrupt early end
He's a legend shifty. 1st on the scene
Original guy to put Manny on the map with tunes not aimed at young girls
Yunguns were talkin aitch and bugzy, they hadnt heard of shifty, mint that hes back
MADDD CRAZYYYY
Shifty and blizzard was the first mcs from Manchester I found out about and I still think nobody can come close to their prime and I’m from London real talks #respect
Thanks for watching bro
they were kids too, a lot of mcs in london were grown men compared to them, especially blizz
Shifty and wrigz together were the best man 🔥🔥
blizzard’s still getting better, with age he still drop bars n flows. heck him out, hes still going, Big respect to Shifty for the way he set up the game, Blizzard’s on a roll @Iamblizzard
Bobby Throbby yeah man blizzard and shifty were sick together too they had a little fall out at one point didn’t they? Shifts ain’t been same since he’s accident though don’t think he’ll be coming back
Can't help but feel sorry for shifty. He was one of the first up north to actually build a scene. Now you can see the hunger to get that all back. I don't know what happened to him way back but anyone with a bit of maturity can see it's holding him back. And deep down i think he knows it
He was in a life threatening car crash 👍
@@miccheckmediauk617 I know he's lucky to even be here. Anything else is a bonus 🙌
Watching in 2023. Shifty fan by way of Halton McCollins tribute video. Hope Shifty is well ❤
man the days of shifty, liquid, wrigley blizzard and everyone were madddd, shifty was killing it before the crash
The champ 👊🏽
YES SHIFT .. deep one this 😞 imagine what could a bin he was literally a pioneer of the Manchester scene
Anyone got, Shifty - SWAT. Nobody seems to have/remember it but it was 🔥
Pretty hard to watch but good insight! Well done guys ❤️ 🐝
Emotionally * and the ending 🤣 used to love that freestyle
Shame what happend to shifts, I used to have the pleasure of having on my friends list on xbox years ago and he'd happily spit his new bars for everyone. I was sure he going all the way I just hope he does find his way back to music and finds a happy life making his tracks he could pioneer a new lane making music with people that had bad accidents or have certain disabilities that hold them back. Good luck shifts 0161 Manny Legend.
The Legend! You know I'm still living in the past when I'm getting about with GYHO Vol 1 in my car haha Need some new Shifty Tunes in my life
"Dem man think that shifty's dead because he ain't made a track in a week or two"
...
...
"But I think Dem man are hating, I think Dem man need a good speaking too"
Waiting on Shifty's new music 👀
Sick interview
Manny vet!! Big up shifts
Real OG man people need to recognise
SHIFTSSSSSSSS 💥💥💥💥
Legend
Big up shiftz when we going to hear some music ?
Shifty is my era totally. I remember him on market street hustling hard, the freestyles outside hulme market, always bumping into him around chorlton & mersey bank. Im not 100% what happened but man, he would be absolutely smashing it today if certain things hadnt happened.
Keep going shifty still a legend on the bank aka Turner 😎
The Manchester main man!
GET YOUR HUSTLE ON !
P.S We need a Street Life Pt. 2 Many years later bro peace
Come g come back we're all waiting
Fkin legend ....
Big up Shifty
no one in Manchester did it like him he was raw when you think of grime he comes under it
Shifts head gone completely gone man. Shame that g
Seen him perform before the crash he was so sick its such a shame that happened
When I was at school shiftz was the best on everybody's mp3 😅 found this video searching for him for nostalgia , I actually got got spit with him at a tiny community centre in Broadheath when I was like 15 , thought I was the man afterwards 👍
Real talk from a real musician come back n bless this city with your talent MCR needs u its time r kid. What is the video u did old skool set in brum with some of hypes guys old skool like nedved ????
big up shiftz so much fuckin respect g, jump back on old school grime or beats with a ukg influence would be harddd
Man said he’s been out for 10 years in introduction. I had a mix off shifty in 04 so that’s 17 years at least
Big up shifty 👊
Shifty should be a fucking billionaire from music.. makes my blood boil how many shit rappers have made it bigger than shifty
you can see his passion. it’s been so long shiftz. what have you been cooking?
Fuck off you beg
If shifty comes back hes taking over. He is Manchester's finest lyracist
Still waiting on man
Would love to hear shifty with mic righteous
Used to listen to shifty back in the day. have been searching for new content but didn’t realise he had an accident. What happened ?
Shiftys been sick from day, such a sad situation
Its shift E R. Listen to the lyrics i deliv E R.
for real back in the day when grime was no way as big or main stream as it is now im talking back 2000 2010 i was a teen during this time it was all london scene but shifty had everyones attention at one point lit about to blow then that accident happened and never heard from him again until that westwood set but fuck man he was so sick!!!
Should of played his track to him OTHER BROTHER help him find him agen 😎 facts if man never had a crash he would be no1 top selling artist with more p then ne grime rap artist today #goat
How bad was the crash? I've tried to look online but there's not much about it and I remember back In the day and just hoped he was okay.
Bad in the game like ea.
Street life.
Facts
Poor guy doesn’t seem all there properly now
That car crash has clearly had a effect on him sad man. This guy would’ve been bigger than Bugzy if he didn’t have that car accident 💯
@@adamgordon2572 how bad was the accident?
Jheeze
Best white UK grime mc
I am so tripped out right now... I feel like I've moved into another timeline or something.
I've literally thought that Shifty was dead, for the last... maybe 13 years or so?
I could've sworn that he passed away in a car crash, I even remember his cousin Blizzard making a track about it and I remember seeing people posting RIP Shifty in the comment sections and saying how much he'll be missed and praising him for how much he'd always contributed to the Manchester Grime scene....
This is some straight up mandela effect shit. I cannot believe what I'm watching right now.
