Grime Kids
Based on the book by DJ Target, Grime Kids is a coming of age drama written by Theresa Ikoko and set in 2001 in Bow, East London. The show follows a fictional group of school leavers across what they believe to be their “last summer as kids”.
We follow Dane (Yus Jamal Crookes), Junior (Gabriel Robinson), Kai (Shanu Hazzan), Bishop (Tienne Simon) and Bayo (Juwon Adedokun) as they navigate first loves, fracturing home lives, financial pressures, brushes with danger, and the ever present question: what kind of man do you want to be? All the while pursuing (with various levels of enthusiasm) a very new, and maybe not so justified dream to make it big in the garage music scene.
