I have a love/hate relationship with Dizzee Rascal. I love his first two albums, I even really liked his third album. I especially loved his Calvin Harris-produced first single, “Dance Wiv Me,” but I really disliked “Bonkers.” So maybe it’s a lot more love than hate, but the point it is not. The point is that “Holiday,” the third single from Dizzee’s fourth studio album, Tongue ‘N’ Cheek, is just as good as “Dance Wiv Me,” if not better.

While I’m not completely sold on the dancey direction Dizzee Rascal has taken with his new album, I can’t deny that “Dance Wiv Me” and “Holiday” are undeniable JAMS. Listen to the “Holiday” here Note: quality is, um, terrible. Updated with higher quality mp3, thanks to Neil from Silence Killer.

Been playin this since some time last week, it’s the last hit of the song where dizzee shuts up an the dance euphoria come’s rushing. I would say it has more about it than dance with me & bonkers.

Bonkers is an amazing track and even though it’s a little outdated it still gets people moving on the dance floor. I’m also lovin the C.H. compilation.
