Dizzee's transference into mainstream possibly best exemplified by his appearance on Band Aid 20. OK nobody cares about now and most of the people who even bought it probably never listen to it now and HATED Dizzee's bit more than anything else on it, but STILL...

...actually I'm not sure where I'm going here beyond 'hip urban black kid in the British charts* that isn't pandering in certain ways (i.e. RnB crooners like Lemar and Craig David) = an important thing (but not as empty tokenism)

*he wasn't top 10 but still making some sort of impact
