Dizzee Rascal was a trailblazer & early champion of UK Rap and the genre that would eventually be known as Grime. But Dizzee didn't just stop with what Charlie calls the "Illmatic of Grime/UK Rap", he sought to push boundaries, help sow the seeds of making rapping mainstream and even collab with US Hip-Hop legends YEARS before it became common practice. We explore Dizzee's music ahead of his new album "E3 AF" coming October 30th.TIMESTAMPS:Weekly Music Roundup - (1:23)Topic Intro/Ben's Research House - (26:13)Boy In Da Corner - (35:35)Showtime & Maths + English - (48:03)Tongue N Cheek & The Fifth - (59:08)Raskit - (1:12:02)Lighter Note - (1:22:08)Thanks for listening.
