EL-P's Dizzee Rascal Mix

Even casual grime fans probably heard Dizzee Racal's Maths + English, released last year on XL Recordings. Now, fresh off a U.S. distro of Mike Ladd's Nostalgialator,  Def Jux is releasing Maths + English in the States. 

 

El-P has put together a megamix of some of the original Maths + English songs, as well as the four new tracks on the U.S. version: "Driving With No Where to Go," "G.H.E.T.T.O.," a "Pussyole" remix by Pretty Todd, and an El-P mix of "Where da G's."  

 

The album is scheduled to hit stores April 29. This might very well be many a backpack-laden teen's introduction to grime, continuing Dizzee's streak of introducing U.K. hip-hop to the stateside massif.

I saw him a few years ago and I didn't understand most of what he said, but it was pretty awesome.

I saw him a few years ago too and seemed to be the only person in the room laughing at some of the funniest lines. My (American) date was wishing for subtitles. His lyrics are fantastic, and make me a bit homesick.
