INDIE ROCK OLYMPIC SKETCHES: Dizzee Rascal
By Jim Shearer on 08/13/2008
Filed under: INDIE ROCK OLYMPIC SKETCHESWHO: Dizzee Rascal
SPORT: Boxing
WHY: I'm sure Dizzee has mixed it up in his share of East London brawls, but the reason I think he'd be great for Britain's national boxing team is because he's flat out ripped (anyone see him at this year's Pitchfork Festival?). He also manages to deliver hour-long sets of spitfire rhymes without losing his breath. I'm telling you, the kid's got gold-medal stamina.
