El-P & Dizzee Rascal

It's been announced recently that underground hip hop vet El-P and British rapper Dizzee Rascal are going out on a North American tour this spring. I don't know about you, but this is some pretty exciting stuff. If you read my Favorites of 2007 list then you know I'm a huge El-P fan. And any serious music fan has heard of the genius that is Dizzee Rascal. See you there!

In the meantime, here's the tour dates, and the videos for El-P's "Flyentology" and Dizzee's "Sirens". And check out the new Dizzee Rascal album, "Maths + English" cause it's amazing, and better than 90% of the hip hop coming out of the US right now. Enjoy!
