Originally from and born to Nigerian parents he moved from Lagos to London aged three. His family history can be traced back further to Ethiopia, to the Falash Mura community. He is a producer and DJ commonly associated with the North London Grime scene, including Roll Deep and Boy Better Know.
The name "Skepta" originated from the word Sceptre, a type of staff. He did not like the way it was spelt and felt that he wanted a unique stage name so 'that he could type "Skepta" in YouTube and only he would come up.' So, he changed it.

Skepta started his music career after he won a MC battle with over 300 people contesting beating Tempa T in the final. He also formed a partnership with his brother JME and became renowned throughout Greater London for his hit single (he also produced), "Private Caller" which featured many of his Meridian Crew from Meridian Walk in Tottenham.

Skepta (Managing Director) along with brother JME (CEO), began their grime label Boy Better Know in late 2005. The phrase "Boy Better Know" was originated by Big H the artist.

This phrase was then taken by Skepta and JME. Early 2006 saw the release of 'Shut Yuh Mut' - Boy Better Know Edition 1 which features all 3 artists and throughout the years has contributed and aided many other artists such as Frisco and Wiley to put out mixtapes, along with JME (4 mixtapes) and Skepta's September 2007 release 'Greatest Hits', which was distributed nationwide.

However now, Wiley left because he found mainstream chart success with Roll Deep, a crew that he co-founded and has enjoyed two number one hit singles with on the UK Top 40 Chart. He also had an ongoing 'beef' with Skepta, with both artists creating diss tracks, Wiley's 'Barnet' and Skepta's 'House in the Country' were both uploaded onto YouTube by both artists. However, this 'beef' was later proved to be false, as Skepta has stated in interviews, over Twitter, and whilst appearing on Ustream.

Skepta has released three singles off his third studio album, Doin' It Again (first with a major label). Titled "Bad Boy", "Rescue Me" and "Cross My Heart" featuring Preeya Kalidas, as well as a video for the Hello Good Morning (Grime Remix).

All singles charted in the Top 40 of the UK Singles Chart, with "Rescue Me" being the most successful at number 14. The chart position of "Cross My Heart" was fairly disappointing coming in at number 31 and dropping out of the Top 40 a week later, bearing in mind it had the most promotion out of any of the tracks. After the success of his first single "Bad Boy", Skepta's videos were removed from his own channel and promoted through All Around The World (a division of Universal Records).

His tracks were also premiered on the official website of the label.
It is expected that "Doin' It Again" will be either released on or in partnership with All Around The World records, scheduled for a release of 31 January 2011 for digital download and on 7 February 2011 as a CD.

All Over The House
Skepta Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

We were chillin'
Then we had sex
In the kitchen
In the shower
In my bed
On the couch

We were chillin'

Then we had sex
In the kitchen
In the shower
In my bed
On the couch

We were chillin'
Then we had sex
In the kitchen
In the shower
In my bed
On the couch

In other words we had sex all over the house
All over the house
All over the house

She came closer
I popped up like bread in a toaster
Alright alright foreplay's over
I stuck her up on the wall like a poster
Then I told her
Let me show you something you won't forget
Just hold me by the neck
And I'll pick you up by the legs
She said junior don't drop me
I said baby I do this properly
Just kiss me
Close your eyes tight like the rest is history
Now I got princess open
Like a birthday card I'm gonna show her around the house
And sell her the yard smooth

We were chillin'
Then we had sex
In the kitchen
In the shower
In my bed
On the couch

We were chillin'
Then we had sex
In the kitchen
In the shower
In my bed
On the couch

We were chillin'
Then we had sex
In the kitchen
In the shower
In my bed
On the couch

In other words we had sex all over the house
All over the house
All over the house

Shes giving me come to bed eyes
I need to come correct I'm
She loves my XL size
I wanna be between those thighs
All over the house
Front room she opens the blouse
Had a body like wow
No time for the bedroom I had to act now
And I was like hey pretty missy
The way your looking is oh so pretty
To lose this moment would be a pity
But this ain't sex ain't city
This is sex kitchen
This is sex on the floor
Animalistic going on all 4s
Working in the house but this ain't a chore smooth

We were chillin'
Then we had sex
In the kitchen
In the shower
In my bed
On the couch

We were chillin'
Then we had sex
In the kitchen

She hadn't seen me in ages
I came in gave her a kiss on the lips
And took off my rucksack and trainers
Let me flick forward a couple pages
Then it all started
1 word, outrageous
In & out like CD changes
Our bodies exchanging flavors
I put her on a table
Moved all the papers
Her legs high up in the air
Non stop like baseline ravers
Then we went to the bedroom
On the floor, move the straighteners
The way we were all over the house
Thought we were all painters smooth

We were chillin'
Then we had sex
In the kitchen
In the shower
In my bed
On the couch

We were chillin'
Then we had sex

The lyrics to Skepta's "All Over The House" depict a sexual encounter between him and a woman in various parts of the house, including the kitchen, shower, bed, and couch. The repetition of the phrase "We were chillin', then we had sex" creates a sense of spontaneity and passion between the two partners. In the second verse, Skepta describes how he takes control of the situation, holding his partner up against the wall and showing her new things in the bedroom. The chorus reaffirms that the couple engaged in sexual activity all over the house.

Overall, the song can be seen as a celebration of sexual liberation and exploration. The lyrics are explicit and straightforward, emphasizing the physical pleasure that both partners experience. The inclusion of specific details, such as "moved all the papers" and "took off my rucksack and trainers," enhances the realism of the encounter and creates a sense of voyeurism for the listener.
