Noel famously let rip after Jay Z headlined Glastonbury Festival.

“But I’m not having hip-hop at Glastonbury. It’s wrong.”
Speaking at the time, Dizzee admitted he didn’t think it was a hatred for all rap and hip-hop music.
The British star said: “I don’t think he hates hip-hop. Maybe he just felt a way about Jay-Z being at Glastonbury or hip-hop being at Glastonbury.

“They’re party animals, so somewhere they must’ve enjoyed some hip-hop track.”

“The link-ups are mad and I didn’t come to play! You’re welcome.”
