If you have listened to any of his albums, decide on which one you think is the best. If you've never listened to anything by Dizzee Rascal, you should check out some of his stuff. He's the premier UK hip hop artist right now.

I bought Boy In Da Corner because I read some good reviews but it was terrible IMO. His voice is annoying and the beats were bad for the most part. I'm not trying to hate on your thread but I think Dizzee's wack.

I can understand people not liking the album, it definitely isn't for everyone. When I first listened to it I liked some of the tracks, but it took me a while to really get into it. Personally, I think it's a 5 star album.

ive never heard him but i always thought about Boy in Da Corner. Ive heard its good and the critics are obsessed with it (that could be a bad thing though lol)

Yeah, I always take critic reviews with a grain of salt, they aren't always on the same page as everyone else.

All I've heard is "Maths + English". Not really my cup of tea, but it is pretty damn tight. Definitely a solid record. I especially love that cut with UGK ("Where's Da G's").

yeah Where's Da Gs is a tight song. Bun B and Pimp C are the ones that made that track though, I usually skip over Dizzy's verse when I play that joint.

Honestly, the accents are a problem for me with UK Hip-Hop

I've wondered about his music. I checked out some songs on BIDC, and I can't understand a single word he's saying. I like some UK hip hop, but I don't think I could get into the grime genre.

Now that he has taken my attention, I might go and dl some of his stuff so I can see what everybody was talking about.
