Estelle: 'Paxman treated Dizzee Rascal like an idiot'

I'm somewhat disheartened by the racist undertone of many of the responses to this article. I suppose that Dizzee might have come across as a political lightweight during his appearance on Newsnight, but I think it's a bit ripe of you lot to get too uppity bearing in mind the fact that many of you spent most of the Autumn eulogising the wilfully ignorant Gallagher brothers. Given the choice between the two parties, I know who I'd rather see in a position of power, and he doesn't have enormous eyebrows.

Would you like to tell me more about why you've decided that Dizzee Rascal is NOT British, TOMQ84, or are you scared that you'd have your profile deleted if you did?I suppose it's probably slipped your mind that if it wasn't for African-American music the NME - or contemporary British Music and the Industry as a whole - wouldn't even exist. Idiot.
