Dizzee Rascal to go on hiatus
Rapper to take time off to "recharge batteries"
London-based rap star Dizzee Rascal has announced his intention to take some much-needed time off from music in a bid to conserve his energy.
Despite not releasing an album since 2009's chart-topping Tongue N' Cheek, Rascal has admitted he feels burnt out. In an interview with The Daily Star the rapper told fans not to expect new material until at least 2012.

"There won't be a new album from me for a while, until at least next year. I hope that doesn't upset fans who wanted to hear something from me by the end of 2011. But it feels like I've released albums almost back-to-back since Boy In Da Corner."
