Dizzee Rascal and Wiley’s well-reported beef developed dramatically earlier today when Dizzee took to Twitter to criticise Wiley’s possession of the “Godfather of Grime” nickname.
The debate began yesterday (30 September) when Wiley asked Dizzee’s manager (Nick Cage) to stop referring to Dizzee as the “Godfather” in marketing for his upcoming Raskit tour. Wiley wrote, “Why does Dizzee now want the godfather title can’t he just let me have something for my Likkle self.”
Dizzee then fired off a series of tweets accusing Wiley of sleeping with underage girls and claiming that he has “never seen a Nonce so protected since Saville.”
Dizzee also wrote in a since-deleted tweet, “Wiley I know you think all this trolling is funny but one day you’re (sic) push me too far and I’m going to kill you. I hope you all keep laughing.”
When discussing the “Godfather title”, Dizzee posted, “I was making Grime when Wiley was on Top of the pops with Pay as you Go and shacking up with school l girls. I’m not the Godfather I’m GOD.” He also quoted a follower accusing him of using the beef to promote his upcoming tour and wrote, “Why is it free Promo when I do it? This Nonce trolls me all day everyday for promo and you lot think it’s funny.”
