Dizzee #3 In Album Chart

Unfortunatly Dizzee never made it to number 1. This means Tinchy Stryder is still has highest charting album from a UK rapper. Still number 3 is a massive look for Dizzie, its just out of all his releases this is the one that seemed most likely to hit the top spot.
Now that the week is out and the chart position is final im posting my thoughts on the CD. this is incase i put anyone off from copping the CD (not that it will but still).
The CD contains the tunes you know that he brought out as singles (Holiday, Bonkers, Dance With Me) which give a rough vibe to the whole feel of the album. it is mainly all on a commercial dancy type vibe.
Dont get me wrong i think the singles that dropped were bangers as far as radio tunes go but i would like a few more gritty underground tunes on here. tunes like 'grafting' and 'i love you' that were still massive singles.
I got a feeling that 'Dirtee Cash' will be the next single. apparently its been getting a lot of downloads on i-tunes. also he played it at V and the crowed loved it. the tune has a 90's sounding sample on it (forgive me if i should recognise the sample). again this tune is on a dancey club vibe.
Easily the best track on the CD is 'Cant Tek No More' produced by shy fx. this tune has got a dubstep/drum and bass feel and dizzee comes real concious on the bars. he spits some proper subjest meaning and its a lot. the hook works well too. big tune but what more can u expect with a collaboration like this.
'Chilling With The Mandem' is a nice tune too. its got a real floaty hip hop beat. proper chilled out one. dizzee spits some nice relevant bars bout cotchin with ya pals.
Also 'bad behaviour' produced by Tiesto is a big sounding tune. its on a similar vibe to 'bonkers'.
On the whole the CD has bangers but its not the type of CD i really wanted from Dizzee. Id rather he went darker. Cant fault him tho, he has made a mainstream album that bangs!
Cop It and see if we can get him to number 1

Jammer Signs To Big Dada

Jammer has signed a three album deal with Big Dada Records, an imprint of ninja tune, responsible for roots Manuva, the Bug and Wileys 'playtime Is Over'.
Big Dada said:
"Jammer nearly signed with Big Dada two years ago (and actually played at our 10th Anniversary party), so everyone here is very pleased to have finally persuaded him! After a series of acclaimed mixtapes, Jammer's first full-length album is scheduled for May 2010. First single, 'Party Animal', will be released later this year."
This could be a massive look for him

REAL Hip Hop
Two of the most concious rappers i have heard have combined on a massive track. 'Voice Of The Voiceless' is a massive track which sees UKs Lowkey and USAs Immortal Technique. Again its good to see USA and UK link up on a track especially one with a real message and meaning. This tune is massive.

Jay Sean Taking Over America?
I was shocked when i found out that Jay Sean had been signed by Cash Money Records (home to Lil Wayne). Mainly because i never really felt that Jay Sean had loads to offer (no offence). I thought he was good at what he does but to be picked up by Cash Money i thought you would have to be something proper special. Anyway i was pleased he got ssigned by them because again this brings UK music to the attention of America and also with current collaborations with artists like Boy Better Know and Skepta Jay seems to be keen to push the UK scene.
I found out today that Jay Sean feat Lil Wayne 'Down' is currently at number 2 in the American Billboard Chart. Jay is smashing it. All the best to him and with USA/UK collaborations like this doing well its a massive look for us in the UK.

Also i read in The Sun the other day that Lil Wayne has invited Tinchy Stryder on his American tour as his support act. Apparently they are all buzing over him over there. Again this is a massive look!
Big shout to Tinchy and Jay Sean. Your smashing it!
