A mainstay on East London pirate Deja Vu FM, Joe Grime made his reputation picking out the best in bashment and dancehall.
Continually pushing ahead, his buoyant personality and enthusiasm made him hugely respected amongst DJs, fans and listeners.
Diagnosed with Angio Sarcoma of the heart and lung cancer earlier this year, Joe Grime underwent chemotherapy. Sadly, Deja Vu FM confirmed a few moments ago that the much loved DJ has since passed away.
