Tinie Tempah Talks about big collaboration plans
While discussing plans for his sophomore album backstage at Lollapalooza, Tinie Tempah told Rolling Stone that he has a lot of collaborations in the works, with a wish list that includes Usher, Chris Brown and “hopefully, fingers crossed, Adele.” Of course, the London rapper is no stranger to collabs, from rocking his own track, ‘Pass Out,’ with Snoop Dogg live at Glastonbury to his notorious ‘Miami 2 Ibiza’ vocal with the Swedish House Mafia. But Tempah admits that a lot of these partnerships just fall into place, especially after making connections at places like festivals. “Seeing each other in these kinds of environments where everyone’s just drinking a beer and smoking a spliff and chilling out,” he says. “I think it definitely brings people together.”
