Legendary revolving-door grime collective Roll Deep (which has seen the likes of Dizzee Rascal and Tinchy Stryder pass through) return with a bang on their new single “Good Times”, which heralds a new era for the London pioneers. The track contrasts RD’s attitude-driven vehemence with an immediately memorable hook delivered by guest vocalist Jodie Connor. The single captures the essence of the group’s breakthrough hit, “The Avenue”, while pushing the boundaries and maximising the crossover potential of their sound. It’s also founding member Wiley’s first No. 1 with the crew.
