Leads Mercury nominations to Dizzee Rascal


Dizzee Rascal and Paul Weller are among the artists nominated for this year’s Barclaycard Mercury Prize. The ‘Bonkers’ hitmaker – who previously scooped the coveted accolade for his 2003 LP ‘Boy in da Corner’ – would love to cap off a triumphant year, which has seen him win the BRIT Award for Best British Male, by seeing his album ‘Tongue N’ Cheek’ take home the award. He said: “I’d like to win for the second time, this album has done so much for me, it’s the first independent release, the first one that’s gone double platinum, so my second Mercury would be something else.“Paul Weller is a legend, so to be mentioned in the same thing as him is amazing. It’s one big competition.”Veteran rocker Weller is another previous nominee to be up for the prize again, with his critically acclaimed LP ‘Wake Up The Nation’ making the shortlist. He told BANG Showbiz: “I’m very pleased to be nominated. I was nominated in 1994, which I didn’t win but it’s just nice.“I’m happy for the record, that it’s going to get more recognition and another look.“I don’t know about rating my chances though, it’s normally the outsider that wins.”The two artists face stiff competition from The xx, whose debut LP ‘xx’ has been installed as favourite to take this year’s honour, much to the group’s amazement. Drummer Oliver Sim said: “It’s absolutely insane considering all the other artists. It’s really mind blowing.”Also nominated for the award are albums from Corinne Bailey Rae, Foals, I Am Kloot, Mumford and Sons, Laura Marling, Biffy Clyro, Kit Downes Trio, Villagers and Wild Beast. The winner of the prize - which recognises the best UK or Irish album of the last 12 months - will be announced by Jools Holland at the Barclaycard Mercury Prize Awards Show in London on September 7.
Barclaycard Mercury Prize nominees:
Biffy Clyro – ‘Only Revolutions’
Corinne Bailey Rae – ‘The Sea’

Dizzee Rascal: Now the British urban scene is getting crowded


When Dizzee Rascal became the first rapper to win the Mercury Music prize in 2003, the east London MC was a relative unknown. "I come from the underground, pirate radio stations, I come from the ground, man," he told the crowd during his acceptance speech, adding: "Remember to support British talent because it is there."
Seven years later, the grime artist turned pop star is a fixture in the charts and the talent he mentioned is not only taking over a greater share of the UK charts but is also storming the US.
According to figures from the BPI, the body that represents record labels, urban music now accounts for about 30% of the UK charts. But it is the rising number of UK acts in the field that is making record labels sit up and listen: while the total number of urban tracks in the top 1,000 increased by 25% between 2007 and 2009, the number of UK tracks in the genre rose by 84%.
Dizzee Rascal has scored four number one hits with his latest album, while N-Dubz have had six Top 20 hits and Chipmunk five Top 10 hits since April 2009.
While Dizzee may rule the school in the UK, other British urban artists, such as Taio Cruz and Jay Sean, have achieved the biggest prize of all conquering America.
Cruz and Sean topped the Billboard Hot 100 last year and have had high profile UK/US collaborations with artists including Sean Paul, Lil Jon and Kesha, paving the way for fellow British artists to try their luck over the pond.
"This is not just a UK thing, we are seeing UK artists like Taio Cruz and MIA getting a very high profile in the States," said Martin Talbot, the managing director of the Official Charts Company. "The British are coming and that's a great thing."
At the same time, urban artists from Britain, who for many years believed they had to copy commercially successful American artists, are finding their own voice quite literally, according to Dan Greenpeace, a hip hop artist manager.
"UK rappers 10 or 15 years ago often were imitating US accents, a whole raft of them were putting on these accents and Americans were just laughing at them," he said. "They didn't take them seriously because they wanted the real thing.
"Now UK artists are being themselves. There is more recognition of their talents, and they are being supported on the radio. Kids have grown up listening to UK urban acts on the radio, and there is more pride about it they want to listen to Tinchy Stryder and Chipmunk just as much as 50 Cent and Snoop Dogg."
According to Greenpeace, they also want music that speaks to their lives. "These artists are rapping about homegrown things, shopping at Sainsbury's or whatever, and people can relate to that," he said.
Singing with a British accent is not always helpful, said Sway, a UK hip hop artist who has just signed to Akon's label in the US.
He said that singers such as Estelle and Leona Lewis the first British solo artist to top the US charts with her debut album did not proclaim their Britishness, leaving many US fans under the impression they are American.
"Sometimes when I'm playing over there, they're like, 'You're rapping like Harry Potter, man'. I feel so British, and it's a great selling point, the girls love it, but the market needs to accept that," Sway said.
For him, the big difference is not about accent or image, but a recognition by record labels that UK urban artists can be a lucrative investment.
"I love rock bands, but often they are making more down tempo, serious music, and in a time of recession that's the last thing people want to listen to they want to have a good time," said Sway.
Shabs Jobanputra, the president of Virgin Records UK who also founded Relentless records, which introduced So Solid into the mainstream consciousness said a cultural shift in the UK had played a big part in popularising British urban music. "The cultural composition of Britain has changed; there has been a merging and mixing of cultures that has actually transformed the playground, not just in London, but throughout the country, and that has been a big factor," Jobanputra said.
An absence of emerging American urban acts has opened up opportunities for UK talent, he added. "Urban culture needed to be fed and suddenly grime acts were in demand not on a sub culture level, but on a mass scale," he said.
But has mainstream success come at a price? Some in the scene argue that the music dominating now the charts is disposable pop and not true urban.
Dizzee Rascal's previous album, Tongue N Cheek, is significantly more pop and dance-influenced than his early recordings, while artists including Chipmunk and N-Dubz have no reservations about relying on popc.
Greenpeace welcomes the growing popularity of urban music, but says it must maintain its integrity. "Artists are going to have to come up with more edgy music to maintain its credibility because pop acts cannot last too long," he said.
He said he had been encouraged by the work of artists such as Professor Green, who has currently collaborated with Lily Allen, and Tinie Tempah, whose single Pass Out reached number one.
"The proof will be in the pudding," Greenpeace said. "Will stations like Radio 1 continue to support more edgy sounds? How will audiences react? I think they are open to it, but we will see."
For Jobanputra, though, UK urban is simply getting the recognition it deserves.
"For too many years urban has lived in the underground, scraping by and getting thin," he said. "Why shouldn't it be popular and vaunted? It is part of our culture that is flourishing and having a real moment."

Dizzee Rascal 'angered by talent show audience'


Dizzee Rascal lost his temper with a studio audience this week while filming Sky1's new talent show Must Be The Music, a report has claimed. According to The Sun, the hip hop star was left stunned when audience members booed him and his fellow judges after they made a controversial decision. It is thought that the panel which also features Jamie Cullum and Sharleen Spiteri were jeered and heckled after choosing to send home a female hopeful who had won over the crowd. Responding to the audience, Dizzee allegedly picked up a microphone and complained: "What's going on? Don't boo us. You guys need to get behind us… If we don't like someone you guys need to get behind us otherwise it will create a s**t vibe."A show producer is understood to have then stepped in, telling the crowd: "Guys, you need to work with us. These guys have sold millions of albums so they know what they're talking about."

Thrills Pyramid crowd Dizzee Rascal


Dizzee Rascal whipped the swelling crowd near Glastonbury's Pyramid Stage into a frenzy with his British take on traditional rap music.
As he performed his chart topping hits, the volume and excitement from the crowd grew.
Hits Bonkers, Dirtee Disco and Holiday, coupled with a glowing sunset over Worthy Farm, provided the soundtrack for a day which seemingly passed without a hitch.
Marcus Long, 34, and his friend David Goldman, 32, both from Golders Green, north London, agreed that Dizzee was going to be hard to beat.
Mr Long, a teacher, said: "I have been coming to Glastonbury since the mid-90s but today has been among the best days I have had at the festival. Usually I am into more guitar based music so I was disappointed when U2 pulled out.
"But Gorillaz are very good and Dizzee was bound to be a highlight.
"The energy and atmosphere was incredible - I haven't got his album but I think I owe him after that performance. Excellent."
Mr Goldman, a mature student, who had never been to Glastonbury before, said: "I am still in shock a little bit. I have seen it on the television and read so much about it - but actually being here is completely change.
"I loved Dizzee and I am looking forward to Muse and The Dead Weather tomorrow. But the best bit about the festival is just wandering around and coming across things you never thought you'd see. And the toilets are not too bad - yet."
