Dizzee Rascal is already one of those artists who, despite his tender age, provokes keen interest with every next move. And this shimmy across the dancefloor, his first release on own label Dirtee Stank, will get tongues wagging once again.
For this time he's gone all pop on us, enlisting trusty 80s-botherer Calvin Harris for a shuffling beat that, dare I say it, Will Smith wouldn't pass over.
Surely he's gone too far, then, if that's the reference? Well no - give Dance Wiv Me a few chances to prove its worth and it will, the energetic rap and catchy off-beat guitar work making more of an impression and raising more of a smile with each listen.
With a liberal dose of cheese, he's gone and hit the jackpot again - and it's guaranteed this new-found pop direction will introduce a lot more listeners to the rapper's talents. The Fresh Prince of London, for now...
