Dizzee Rascal And James Corden Record Simon Cowell World Cup Song

June 3, 2010
Dizzee Rascal And James Corden Record Simon Cowell World Cup SongDizzee Rascal and Gavin and Stacey star James Corden have recorded a football anthem for this month’s World Cup.

The track, ‘Shout For England’, is a mash-up of Blackstreet’s ‘No Diggity’ and ‘Tears For Fears’ by Shout.

The pair recorded the song in London earlier this week after being brought together by Simon Cowell.

The lyrics include a link which criticises players' wives and girlfriends (WAGs).

"Leave the WAGs alone/Set aside your ego/ We're tired of bragging about 40-odd years ago,” Rascal raps.

The rapper and Corden will perform the song on Britain’s Got Talent at the weekend, according to The Sun.

The pair are also donating their song royalties to Great Ormond Street children's hospital.
