About Dizzee Rascal

East London rapper whose debut Boy in da Corner (2003) won the Mercury Prize when he was eighteen and is widely credited as grime's founding document. His later commercial pivot through Bonkers and Dance Wiv Me opened UK rap to chart success and helped clear the path for the artists who followed him.
