Producer Zaheer drops the track “Assemble” featuring a whole heap of emcees. The track has a recognisable grime theme to it, as do the flows of some of the emcees. There is a taste of the two genres crossing over. The video is nicely filmed, with intro segments to set the scene, followed by straight rapping.
