DISCOGRAPHIC: VIDEO CLASSICS YOU NEED TO KNOW, EVERY TUESDAY...
SETTLE DOWN NOW boys and girls.
Pay attention to the nice boy, because he has a jolly nice story to tell you. His name is Dylan, but his friends call him Dizzee. He's a rascal! He lives on a big council estate in Bow with his mummy.
Dylan doesn't have a daddy. Dylan was a bad boy in school and he had to leave. He was a little bit naughty and stole some cars. But Dylan went to music classes and a kind teacher helped him to learn how to make music that everyone likes. Dylan made a very good record called Boy In Da Corner (watch your spelling now, children!) which lots of people bought. Dylan is such a nice boy he even said thank you to all the mummies and daddies who bought the record. In fact, if you listen closely, you can hear him say thank you on this jolly good film clip of his song, Dream. So make yourselves comfortable and listen sharp as Dylan tells you all about his life...

Decent. I'll have to look for more of his stuff. That's what y'all call the projects in UK huh? council estate?
ReplyDeleteHip-Hop/Rap with a British accent just sounds a little off to me. But wait, wait, Slick Rick aka The Ruler. Remember him?
ReplyDeleteOh, Dizzee; such a clever boy. In the world of literature, this viedo is what we call post-post-modernist. Didactic, through the use of intertextual references which reach beyond his core target audience. I might go so far as to call the video genius...
ReplyDeleteI agree, it was interesting
ReplyDeleteYou see Dusty, you've learnt something new by coming here today: council estate = project.
ReplyDeletetruthspew - US hip-hop is in the hands of 50 cent and Souljah Boy et cetera. I think you should leave it to us to fix. ;)
ReplyDeleteSanya - did you think of that all by yourself? Give yourself a gold star.
ReplyDeleteIntertextualtastic!
