8 Set for a physical US release in April (almost a year after its XL digital only release) on the indie rap label Def Jux, Dizzee’s third effing bangin’, critically acclaimed record Maths + English is “grime” at it’s best. More simply, it’s hip hop at it’s best. This record has a little bit of [...]
