Dizzee Rascal storms to Number 1

  • 14 years ago

Dizzee Rascal is celebrating after shooting straight to the top of the singles chart with his fourth UK number one, Dirtee Disco.

The 2003 Mercury Prize winner has previously topped the charts with singles Dance Wiv Me, Bonkers and Holiday.

Dizzee, who was named Best Male at this year's Brit Awards, is the first male solo artist to have four number one singles off the same album.

All four of his chart toppers came from the platinum selling Tongue 'n' Cheek, which was released last year and peaked at number three.

The 24-year-old Londoner has now sold over two million singles in the UK.

Dizzee will be touring throughout the summer, including a date in Cape Town on June 13 during the World Cup and Glastonbury on June 25.
