duzzee need dizzee?

you heard the new Dizzee Rascal/Armand Van Helden track yet?

apparently Dizzee has been playing it live since November last year but this week it hit the radio and has been gobbling up a fair bit of airplay already.

after his Calvin Harris collabo it appears Dizzee is looking to diversify his sound by working with producers outside of his usual grimey two-steppin comfort zone

its respectable that some artists choose to challenge themselves and their fans and expectations instead of sticking to the same formula but i can't help thinking that Bonkers would have been a huge choon for Armand Van Helden with or without Dizzee, its a warped dirty sounding electro beast of a track, not too dissimilar at all to Fake Blood's Mars, that i don't think Dizzee Rascals vocals add an awful lot to

anyways, its gonna be big, still a little early for an official video yet, so instead check out this rather good quality live version filmed in Leeds last year
