Dizzee Rascal for poetry collaboration?

Dizzee Rascal is set to hook up with an urban poetry act – if Dan Le Sac Vs Scroobius Pip get their way.

The dance/poetry pair have stated their desire to hook up with the 'Dance Wiv Me' star, telling BBC 6music that they have already written a song with his vocals in mind. They now plan to send Dizzee the song and await his response.

"It's a track that we think would really suit him," said vocalist/poet Scroobius Pip. "We want to have a chat and, if he's got time, get him on one. But we've never been one for just picking names because they're names."

He added that he hoped his friendship with Dizzee's DV Semtex would help seal the deal, but explained that he was still being cautious about the approach.

"We'll send over a beat and an email and if it happens it happens, if not there's a lot of great people out there as well," he said.
