Dizzee Rascal says recording with Robbie Williams made "total sense"

  • May 13, 2013

dizzeerascalDizzee Rascal has at long last revealed the thrilling tale behind his new col­lab­or­a­tion with Robbie Williams.

Speaking to Capital FM, Dizzee explained how Robbie Williams ended up appearing on his new single 'Goin' Crazy'.

"It's just one of those things. I actually recorded the song a year before, last year in LA," says Dizzee.

"Robbie's name came up this year, and when I heard that I thought, 'Yeah, that makes total sense'. But then he'd only record it as long as I was there, so I had to fly out to his house in LA."

Dizzee also explained how 'Goin' Crazy', which is released June 16, found its way onto his new album.

"I heard it and I just got excited because it had an indie feel to it and I just felt like that's where music's going to go," he explained. "I feel like there's going to be a shift in music."

You can hear 'Goin' Crazy' and watch Robbie Williams star in the video here.
