Dizzee Rascal, Caught Live


On to the stage the rapper swaggered to his well known chant: "Dizzee Rascal, he's just a rascal".
Despite having a 16 piece orchestra behind him for the first time in his career, the Londoner looked right at home.
New track Dirtee Cash, hit Dance Wiv Me and amontag e of Stand Up Tall with NIRVANA's Smells Like Teen Spirit, had the crowd jumping.
And his country inspired version of hit Bonkers was genius.
He told the audience: "I'm enjoying myself up here, believe that."
The rapper - actual name DYLAN MILLS - got a massive cheer from fans when he shouted: "Dizzee Rascal for Prime Minister, yeah!"
The seats vibrated and rattled throughout due to the phenomenal sound of the full band and backing singers.
Then along came his finale of Fix Up, Look Sharp which had everyone raving.
Dizzee was the only act for this year's Proms who wasn't an obvious choice for a string accompaniment - making it even better.
