Dizzee Rascal has some big pop songs ready to go
By CMU Editorial | Published on Monday 25 June 2012
Amid rumours that he was busy rehashing his 2010 musical tribute to the England football team (that mediocre James Corden collaboration ‘Shout For England’) for an impromptu re-release, after it looked, for a whole seven minutes, like the nation’s overpaid ball kickers might actually win something for once (so, no need for that now then), Dizzee Rascal has been talking about his next album
As well as collaborations with Calvin Harris, Eric Morillo and pop maestros RedOne and Alex Da Kid, it seems Dizzee has also shared studio time with Dr Dre affiliate Fredwreck in devising tracks for the untitled record, which is set for release later this year. Speaking to The Sun earlier this month, Dizzee said: “I’m a couple of tracks short of what I want but there are some big tunes done already. They are big pop songs – I’m not afraid to say it. It worked well for me on the last album”.
