Anyone hear him in the live lounge yesterday doing the cover of the ting tings? good isnt the word, was amazing he's such a witty guy!

I never listen to the radio but Dizzee should get a lot more respect than he does. He is much more than a mere rapper and his lyrics on his latest are excellent and a little self referential.

My respect for him was a bit dampened when i saw him do a duet with Calvin Harris for the BBC at Glastonbury. To be fair though that's more down to my massive hatred for Calvin Harris.

Raskit's gotten a bad rap over the years for kissing up to a mainstream hip-hop audience, but I don't think anyone can deny he's simply one of the most diverse MC's grafting today.
The guy can spit over anything and keep it fresh, I barely hear him repeat a bar these days.

He's collaborated with just about everybody it seems and I really look forward to hearing what he comes out with in the future, even if he's never really topped 'Boy In Da Corner' album-wise (more Jay-Z than flag-bearer for the UK underground but who cares anymore?)...
