No MC carves out quite the mark on hip hop that London Englands Dizzee Rascal does. His is a completely unique take on the genre; one guided by a solid sense of self, and the confident perfection of tailor made skills hes spent a lifetime developing. Never does he slip his accent under the radar; never does he fail to stay true to himself. No, the Dizzee Rascal you see here is most likely the same passionate cat who feverishly tuned into every slice of hip hop coming out of New York when he was a kid.
Which I suppose makes this performance from New Yorks Webster Hall special. Heres Dizzee an obvious scholar of the genres storied history (check out Dont Make Me Get Old School) holding down his own in a foreign city and country altogether. Though dont think he doesnt belong. The spirit of New York City hip hop is undeniably on display throughout Dizzees incredible performance. David Pitz
