Lightning is a grime MC from Plaistow, East London, and now a member of The Movement after leaving Nasty Crew. Also known as Ghetto's younger, Lightning first made a big impact on the grime scene in his lyrical war with Ears, along with his song 'Hard Life', featuring Tension. He reveals much in his lyrics, including how he started spitting, as well as who is he is grateful to in the grime scene:

11 years old, when I started,
Brampton Manor, in the playground,
Writing my bars, in my lessons,
Non-stop work, 24/7,
When I was young, they said I was shit but the same wasteman MC in a click,
Young and Gifted, the mixtape made and I got fame
Know that I'm here and back with a bang
Damn right I'm back with a plan
After Hard Life I gained respect,
Now they all know that I'm actually nang,
It all started in NCY...

In other bars, he describes being 'surrounded by the best in the game', and goes on to mention D Double E, Sharkey Major, Ghetts and Kano, who are all former members of Lightnin's old collective, Nasty Crew. He also says that he owes most to Shifty, Sniper, Marcus Nasty and Ghetts.
