The irony of it is that Dizzee represents true hip-hop (as
far as his talent goes) despite the fact that he isn’t an
american.. amidst all of the hip-hop being ‘dead’
sh*t going on right now .

Be a little more open-minded ppl, his accent should be irrelevant.
blaze Says:
May 24th, 2007 at 4:12 pm
i said it once and i’ma say it again, uk so called hip hop is staright trash, all yall faggots is ass. i dunno why this nigga even bothered postin this shit. all they do is sip tea wit tha quenn, c’mon black, er’time u here sway he dissin the USA, nigga please we invented this shit so yall best fall back and let us do what we do. damn imitators. if yall gon copy us do it good. tha worst thing is that fat ass, called ass assasin
BigMoney Says:
May 24th, 2007 at 4:41 pm
to be fair, i think UK should just leave this whole rap game to da US,just keep on buyin 50,Nas & dem music,if thats one of the best rapper’s in Uk, GOOD FOR UK, but in United States, thats wat we call AMETUER RAPPIN…..they should make a youtube for England nikcaz that Americans cant access coz that rappin is rubbish & i doubt any rap lovers out there wanna hear that…..no hard feelin to British ppl….wats with the accent anyways ? is that reggae or rap ? well DONT answer that if ur British, coz out herrrr…WE CALL THAT REGGAE…WELCOME TO THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA…..now get urselves a cup of tea & biscuits while u listen to some 50……
Jince Says:
May 24th, 2007 at 4:49 pm
lets make it known that blaze is a narrow-minded idiot and that he is not speaking on the behalf of the US…just because you invented something doesnt mean u can control its effect…who do you think invented the car? no, it was not henry ford…it was karl benz who invented the first successful automobile, IN GERMANY…so blaze, now do you think the car should’ve stayed in germany…do you think we would be where we are today if the car was not adopted by the american public?

check yourself before you wreck yourself

hatin on a whole goddamn country…smh @ you….you know, its people like you who live up to the american asshole stereotype
Jince Says:
May 24th, 2007 at 4:52 pm

who the fuck is this Blaze guy it sounds like he has blazed he head away on some cheap drugs, how can a UK kid relate to some american rapper talking about how much dollars he’s got and where he is from when they have never been there before the thing with the US Hip-hop is that its getting boring whats the difference between rappers now a days they all sound the same and almost ever rapper is a serial killer when they aint killed a mouse

wacks i think youre nuts

dizzee is the illest from the UK imo

I aint really a fan of UK hiphop, because like Major over at hoodhype says, that accent just makes it impossible for you to take em seriously.

that all being said, man Sway from the UK is waaay better than Dizzy.

Dizzy Rascal seems like a silly dude trying to be serious… whoever is on the drums on that video though is on fire….

@ #5
I’ve been to England, London and all that. The only reason youll try to be gangsta is because the prison system is a joke over there. I bet 99% of the so called thugs out there wouldnt do any crime if they knew they will be someone’s b*tch in prison and did some real time. Brixton couldnt even compare to a hood in Alabama let alone a major city in the States, no disrespect to Alabama. And besides talking that chain ish and violence aint how youll wont to go man, because there really isnt any going back from that. As far as dizzee, hes straight but the states aint ready for that. Hell the southern music took awhile to jump off in the states nevermind another country…shout out to Slick Rick though

I knew it…somebody was going to say an ignorant comment about the UK and then the war of words ensues…can we enjoy the music regardless of where’s its from?

Anyway, I like him. When I was in the UK a couple of summers ago, I kept hearing his name and reading about him. Ill cat.

it’s funny though, what do you get when you re-arrange the words in ASS? You get SAS, the worst of all uk hiphop, ‘ol desmond tutu lookin ass niggas. These guys need to stick to rhyming about shit they know about. Like fish, chips, mini-coopers, rainy days, and bad teeth. Leave the drugs and guntalk to us americans.

shouts to monie, slick rick, and dana dane though..them my niggas

uk folk get so pissed off when some americans dont like the accent. look it’s all hip-hop its all love, but dont be getting pissed off because people aint feelin it.

I think some of us american people get bothered by it because we look at it like a red-headed step child of where hip-hop came from. Couple that with those weird ass UK accents and it just doesnt sound like anything you wanna bump in your car unless your rollin across the london bridge on your way to smoke one with the queen.

no offense to any UK folks. Some of the UK stuff is fresh as hell in my opinion, but most of it isnt.

bottom line, if its hot its hot, if its not its not. i heard a couple decent uk songs. its more than just lyrics though, its the whole delivery (the swag). and how you sound plays apart in your delivery. and jail was mentioned for the few who were talking greasy on here
