  • Bio

    Firin’ Squad continue to fire-up weekends on Choice FM in London with their mix of the hottest urban club tracks and celebrity interviews with the UK urban music scene’s finest talent. Guests to the show have included the likes of Roll Deep, Tinchy Stryder and Chipmunk. You can catch the prime-time radio show with Chris Vee, Sean Slimm and Mista Grill on Saturday nights from 8pm. This trio’s past achievements are many and include a succession of chart-topping albums, with the four releases in The Very Best of Pure R&B series alone having combined sales in excess of one million units. Prior to joining Choice FM, they enjoyed a very successful seven-year stint on Kiss FM where they were able to champion urban music and had the opportunity to interview many of today’s mega-stars, such as 50 Cent, Usher, Sean Paul, Alicia Keys and many more. There have been numerous awards along the way. In 2006 they received a nomination for Best Radio Show at the Urban Music Awards, and they received the industry’s highest accolade by winning Gold at the Sony Radio Academy Awards in 2007 and were nominated once again in 2008, for their ground-breaking Firin’ Squad Unsigned Podcast. They have worked with some of the biggest music and entertainment brands in the world including MTV, Ministry Of Sound, Twice As Nice and AEG Live, for who they recently hosted a series of after show parties with The Black Eyed Peas, when their world tour touched down at The O2 in London – celebrity guests in attendance included Tom Cruise, Katie Holmes, Cheryl Cole and Chris Rock to name but a few. Firin’ Squad are no strangers to high profile events having played at many of London’s biggest music festivals, such as Notting Hill Carnival and The Prince’s Trust Urban Music Festival. They have supported the likes of Busta Rhymes and Ludacris on stage, and have been joined during sets at some legendary club nights for spontaneous performances by the likes of Jay-Z, Missy Elliott, Mark Ronson and P Diddy. With Mista Grill on the mic, playing host while Sean Slimm and Chris Vee mix their way through tune after tune, back to back behind the decks, the Firin' Squad experience is something unique. And the guys continue to play the biggest nights not only in London, but also all over the UK and abroad. Recent international gigs have included Hong Kong, Dubai, New York, Russia, Ukraine, Bulgaria, Lithuania, and all the summer holiday hotspots including Ayia Napa and Ibiza. And when you’re flying off on your travels, they’ll be providing you with your in-flight entertainment too. You can catch them in the mix, presenting the Urban Show on board the UK’s second largest airline, BMI. So make sure that you plug in your headsets and check it out!
