    Yeah there is a drill scene here, I havent been to any gigs myself. You might of seen this its a vice article on the drill scene here. Athlone is where they are coming out of apparently. Man got on Vice bro.

    The 'gang' that's always in the news from Balbriggan also make some drill music and have a bunch of video's.


    There is a scene, but not making much noise.

    I never thought Irish rap would be possible until I listened to versatile. They are incredibly talented lads and who are just nailing it

    I guess you mean INK, he's pretty good. Bad Intentions is a banging tune.

    I don't get the hype with Versatile at all, about a year or 2 ago I remember going through all there tunes to see if I liked any and I just kept skipping through them thinking this is a bit boring:confused:. There videos are really well done though, but the music itself I was not into it at all.
