Dizzee Rascal Tickets

Once Dizzee was known under the name of Dylan Kwabena Mills. He was born on 18 September, 1984. As a rule, similar adolescents clearly represent where they will be brought by a curve, being on a slippery slope, soon filling up an army of criminals. Dylan was lucky. Pedagogically more grounded teachers could touch the difficult teenager with such a thing as electronic music. Spending free time at computer, Dylan quickly comprehended elements of writing electronic music. From the first experiments in the style of 2step/garage, he came to rap – a very unusual one. The atypical hip-hop, which rejected canons of the American old school and turned to electronics, received the name of grime from newsdealers.
