Dizzee Rascal
Dylan Mills, known professionally as Dizzee Rascal, is a Mercury Prize-winning English MC/rapper and producer. His music is a blend of garage MCing, conventional rap, grime and ragga, with extremely eclectic samples and more exotic styles. His music is an eclectic mixture of garage and hip-hop beats with an extremely broad palette of influences, ranging from metal guitars to found sounds, drill and bass synth lines, eclectic samples and even Japanese court music. After winning a Sidewinder award for 'best newcomer MC' in 2002, his album Boy in Da Corner was released to universal critical acclaim in August 2003. His second album, Showtime, came out in September of the same year, eclipsing the peak of his debut album by entering the UK album chart at #8. Dizzee's third album Maths + English was released on June 4, 2007. The first single off this album, Sirens, was released on May 21. Maths + English was one of the 12 nominees for the 2007 Mercury Prize, which went to The Klaxons' album Myths of the Near Future. (Source: www.wikipedia.org)
