AJ Tracey

Released: September 13, 2012

[Intro: Pokémon theme]
I wanna be the very best
Like no one ever was
To catch them is my real test
To train them is my cause

[Verse]
I be raising roofs like attack dogs
Chop off t'ree MC's, got a backlog
My flow's crack but I don't ever wrap bog
I can go hard with no arms like a tank top
My contact list tight like a little chick
But these jokers better answer the riddle quick
Fuck a talking wave, I ain't got time to waste
Man'll go mad if it's cash that you fiddle with
My man's mad 'cause his chick wants a bit of this
I'm a killer whale, you're a little fish
And when I spit flames, it don't tickle ribs
Bare of you man move slow like the fickle kids
When they bite then they crumble, no cookie
You can bet I'll ride the track, no bookie
When you see me, if you man ain't seeing straight
Trust me you'll see sure, no snookie

AJ Tracey is a British rapper and grime MC. His dad’s a former rapper from Trinidad, and his mum is a Welsh former drum and bass DJ. Based in Ladbroke Grove, West London (although he was raised in the south just like FT and true say, his dad lived in Tottenham), AJ started making waves in the pirate radio scene in 2014, although his songs under the name Looney date back to 2011.

Speaking to GRM about his stage name, AJ

Basically when I used to shot, I couldn’t give my real name. I used to wear loads of Armani, so I called myself AJ. The Tracey comes from this guy called Stacey in my ends. Everyone used to be/is scared of him so I thought, if a man has a girl’s name and he’s still scaring people, the maybe I should try doing it so I can be THAT guy.
