Sammy Virji and Skepta Join Forces for Ferocious UKG Track, "Cops & Robbers"

UK garage breakout Sammy Virji has found his perfect partner-in-crime with Skepta, joining forces with the grime icon for a new collaboration, "Cops & Robbers."

It's only fitting that a track called "Cops & Robbers" has emerged from the collision of UKG and grime, two genres that have spent decades dodging cultural gatekeepers and mainstream approval. Equal parts fluidity and ferocity, its magic lies in how naturally these worlds converge in the hands of two virtuosic artists.

When Skepta nostalgically spits about his days as "a little bad boy from Tottenham" over Virji's propulsive drums, it feels less like crossover opportunism and more like an inevitable meeting of kindred spirits. It's the kind of collaboration that makes you wonder why it took this long to happen—and grateful that it finally did.
