Live at 170 Russell in Melbourne: Jme

After emerging through the iconic Meridian Crew in the early 2000s, Jme quickly became renowned for his razor-sharp lyricism, innovative production and uncompromising independence. While many artists pursued major label success, Jme forged his own path, helping establish Boy Better Know as the benchmark for independent grime and proving that authenticity could be just as powerful as commercial success.

From landmark releases including Famous? and Blam! through to Integrity> and Grime MC, Jme has consistently pushed the genre forward without ever abandoning its roots. More than two decades into his career, he remains one of grime's most respected and influential artists. His impact can be heard throughout modern British rap, while his unwavering commitment to creative independence, community and culture has cemented his place as one of the architects of grime.

This December and January, Australian and New Zealand audiences will witness the long-awaited return of one of the UK's most important MCs. More than simply defining the blueprint for grime, Jme has spent the past two decades helping build its foundations, shape its culture and inspire generations of artists around the world.
