Dizzee Rascal-- "Showtime" out Sept 14

fallow · 09-13-04, 05:15 PM

I'm nine tracks in (I don't know why we got it a day before release, but okay) and I gotta say that it's pretty great. Showtime still has a couple of his playstation sounds but everything is more smoothed out and, well, really pretty. I don't know how it measures against Boy in da Corner yet, but this one doesn't announce itself as Something Really Special-- probably because the songs don't really jump out of the speakers like "I Luv U", "Jezebel", "Stop Dat", and "Jus a Rascal." I need a little more time with it but considering how high he had to fall, I'm happy that he just landed on his feet.

Okay, so "Imagine" and "Fickle" are so totally sweet that you should buy this album tomorrow!!

I picked this up, but have only been able to give it a cursory listen. I like what I've heard so far though.
