Wireless Festival 2009 Sponsored By Barclaycard

Dizzee Rascal brings his chart topping and scene stealing sounds to the Main Stage for the first time. 

The three times gold album selling artist has been the  pioneer  of London and Britain’s hip hop and grime scene since debut album, ‘Boy In Da Corner’.   Dizzee progressed through Top Ten follow up ‘Showtime’ and third album ‘Maths and English’ before last year’s smash hit Number One single, ‘Dance Wiv Me’.   

Dizzee and Basement Jaxx are no strangers, having shared record label XL Recordings, before establishing his own ‘Dirty Stank’ label, and having worked together on 2003’s ‘Lucky Star’ from the Jaxx ‘Kish Kash’ album. Dizzee knows his way around Wireless and is ready for his Main Stage moment:

"I’m really excited about it, to be doing something so big in my hometown - its going to be a good one".
