Dizraeli is a rapper, writer, poet and singer with the band Bad Science, and a member of the Brighton-based Comm:UNITY collective. He is the 2006/7 Farrago UK Slam Poetry Champion and also a Radio 4 Poetry Slam winner.
Directing his stream of rap-stories like a flashlight into the murkiest corners of British culture, Dizraeli takes in politics, love, rain, supermarkets, grief, drug culture, and the nasty bits of masculinity with a sense of humour and a directness that might make you wince, but that always ring true. He might just help us move things forward.

He runs workshops in schools and his album Poetry in the Key of Gee was released to critical acclaim.
