3.12.10
From Plumstead to Platinum!!
British rapper Tinie Tempah has gone platinum in just seven weeks with debut album Disc-Overy.
The album debuted at number one on 10 October 2010 and was preceded by the number one singles Pass Out and Written in the Stars and the top five singles Frisky and Miami 2 Ibiza.
A duet with Kelly Rowland is due to hit the charts from Boxing Day on new song Invincible.
Tinie Tempah has officially arrived as a fully fledged UK Rap Artist. He has certainly paid his dues and his talent has finally been recognised.
He has toured with Chipmunk, Rihanna, Tynchy Stryder and Pixie Lott. So has been in great company on his rise to chart domination.
Parlophone Records who have Tinie on the books celebrated the moment Disc-Overy went platinum with a celebratory photo via Twitter.
Releasing the debut album just as the star began his 18 date live tour of the UK was a very smart move! So it is no surprise that fans snapped up the CD after seeing his amazing shows. Well done Mr Tempah and Congratulations Parlophone! Salute!
