Dizzee Rascal - "Boy in da Corner" (XL; 2003) on the hi-fi this morning. Hard to overstate how good this album is....its the debut of British grime MC, Dizzee Rascal, released in 2003 when he was only 17. It went on to win the Mercury Prize that year, given out to the best album in the UK and Ireland each year. Metacritic, the site that aggregates reviews from everywhere gives it a 92/100 which puts it as the 18th highest rated album since the site went live in 1999 (and number 1 in the "electronic" category. Personally I came to this album late through my love of UK bass music that I developed around 2008/09 but instill remember being astonished at how fresh and innovative it sounded next to the American hip hop I was used to. No subject is off limits to him and whether he is talking about the very personal feeling about dying before he grows up or railing against the British government, he is peerless, making everyone else appear irrelevant and uninteresting. #dizzeerascal #boyindacorner #xl #grime #ukgrime #ukgarage #british #rapper #fixuplooksharp #jusarascal #eastlondon #hiphop #essential
