Wiley is known as 'the godfather of grime', since it is widely regarded he is a pioneering influence in the grime scene, and he is also notable for his exceptional work-rate, having five projects lined up for 2008 alone. Wiley has been one of the biggest artists in the history of the genre, releasing three albums and having been signed to XL Recordings and now to Big Dada Recordings, on which he has recently released his third album "Playtime Is Over". Wiley founded Eskibeat Recordings in 2007. This is not a crew but is a record label which consists of MC's such as Chipmunk, Little Dee and ice kid.
In 2008, Wiley found mainstream success with his hit single 'Wearing My Rolex'.
Wiley first started producing in 1996, working in various genres, notable Jungle and Garage. Wiley first became well known in the East London underground garage scene during the late 1990s, when he was a member of the Pay As You Go Cartel, who had some limited UK chart success. He also co-produced "Nicole's Groove" as Phaze One, and appeared on several tracks by other artists. He made numerous vinyl releases, often driving around London himself selling to record shops. One of these, "Eskimo", was a huge success on the underground scene, reputedly selling in the thousands, where most other artists within the scene could only sell 500-1000 copies of their tracks. He regularly appeared on East London pirate radio stations playing grime tracks, which helped increase his profile. He still does underground events, like Lord Of The Mics 1 , Eskimo Dance, and also does Sidewinder but with his group Roll Deep, which he left Pay As You Go Cartel to create.

And we're doing this ting, go check out the songs
"Man don't care", we shut down the park
You can see us onstage like "what's going on?"
BBK got a lot going on
Skepta, that's my brudda, that's my don
They could never control how man are doing it
It's authentic, can't go wrong
Can't go wrong
Can't go wrong, when it's straight from the heart, you can't go wrong
If it's a real vibe then you can't go wrong
Can't go wrong
Can't go wrong, when it's straight from the heart, you can't go wrong
If it's a real vibe then you can't go wrong
When it's straight from the heart, the music gets heard
Could've been a roadman, could've been a nerd
Dad told me "don't follow the herd"
Instinct, yes, I follow the word
I used to go and get what I'm given
Now I go and get what I'm worth
Still going strong cause I gotta believe
That I'm the wickedest grime MC on this earth
My team's got a lot of dons
And we're doing this ting, go check out the songs
"Man don't care", we shut down the park
You can see us onstage like "what's going on?"

If it's a real vibe then you can't go wrong
Can't go wrong
Can't go wrong, when it's straight from the heart, you can't go wrong
If it's a real vibe then you can't go wrong
Yo, I wanna MC, bruv
Step in the place and I MC, bruv
Jump on the stage and I MC, bruv
Mash up the place when I MC, bruv
Bruv, I wanna MC, bruv
Pass me the mic, I'ma MC, bruv
No question, top flight MC, bruv
Full clip, never on empty, bruv
My team's got a lot of dons

If it's a real vibe then you can't go wrong
What's gwaning, what's the motion?
Fresh out the oven like a Sunday roast
You can find me swimming in the ocean
Sunset, I might drive round the coast
When it's showtime, jump on a plane and take flight
I stand out like one brake light
Everybody wants their crew to be sick
But you and your crew are just one great hype
My team's got a lot of dons
