The production was second to none, and Bump & Flex tunes were played by everybody from the Pirates upwards.
Why "Promises" was never a hit record i'll never know, because it was very very good.
Much like myself, Grant moved away from the UK Garage sound when it lost its melody and became grime. It's a shame, Uk Garage's loss is House's gain.
