Dizzee Rascal has probably peaked in his career and it’s not likely that much of what he releases in the future will have as much impact as his previous releases. He could still be a supplementary featured artist as opposed to the main featured artist. I could see a feature with the likes of Sub Focus or Fisher sounding quite good though.

Dance With Me!

 

Back It is *amazing* though also - can't believe I've never heard it before.

Well it did only come out 2 months ago! :lol:

Does "Holiday" not count? :unsure:

 

"Bonkers" nonetheless!

I considered this, and it’s a great song, but it’s not crediting Calvin Harris as producer so I avoided it.

Voted for 'Dance Wiv Me'!

I quite like Dizzee but fair play, a lot of these songs are AWFUL.

 

Dance Wiv Me & Bonkers are of course classics and I do enjoy both, but I'll go for Love This Town on this. Always loved that one.

Actually went with 'How Love Begins', underappreciated track and I like the early 90s rave influence. I also like Bonkers, Dance Wiv Me, The Power, Lucky Star and Hype: he's had some great dance collaborations!

Pity, the final minute of it in particular is incredible.

'Dance Wiv Me' followed by 'Bonkers'

Bonkers.
