Dizzee Rascal has said he believes Lily Allen is quitting music in order to become a farmer.

The singer announced recently that she was taking time out to focus on other projects, which include setting up a record label.

But in an interview with the Daily Mirror, Dizzee Rascal, who toured with Allen last week, said she was more interested in moving to the country.

"Lily wants to chill, grow veg and rear chickens,” he said.

However, the rapper insisted that he was trying to “talk her out of it”, adding: “She'll be back in the next year or so."
