South-East’s finest, Tinie Tempah, has come a long way since the age of 14. After releasing his Ghetto Koyote track, his name became vastly popular along with his status which has risen past the years. His unique voice and distinctive lyric content has allowed him to further his career in the music industry and has taken his talent world-wide including performances in Amsterdam, Germany and Aye Napa. The MC, influenced by the works of Bashee, Sway, Dizzy Rascal and Kano is now part of the Aftershock camp, producing new tracks and working with different MC’s and producers. After the recent success of his Wifey track, I caught up with him and heres what he had to say… 

Tell us about the new mix-tape... 
It’s called Hood Economics Room 147. I don’t want to bait it up at the moment though. Lets just say it’s gonna be big!

Seriously? Around three to four years.

Performing at Amsterdam, Germany and Aye Napa. I love meeting new people and am interested in different cultures. It was a real pleasure to share my music with people in other countries.

Yeah! It’s for my Wifey track. It was directed by Digital Iris productions. It features many cameos but I don’t want to bait up any names. Let’s just say there is a surprise in stock.

Yeah! I’m in the Aftershock camp. It’s a record label that features big boy producers including Terror Danjah. We also worked with other singers and MC’s including Sadie, Kano and 2nice.

Anything can be associated with violence. I personally feel that rappers and MC’s do not have the power to influence others to kill.

Yeah! Big up Aftershock camp, Chipmunk, Rebler, DJ Ironik, Yazmin, and Damn Tight productions!
