Number 96 is '21 seconds' by So Solid Crew made in 2001. This was a bunch of black rappers; a collective video with over 20 people from South London. This was Britain's first take on American rap. Each person had 21 seconds to introduce themselves and had to try and make themselves stand out the most. This was a huge hit however there was a campaign against the band saying they were dangerous. Their UK tour was cancelled and some were sent to prison for drug use. The video represents kids escaping to the city and being themselves.
