Tinie Tempah reveals he used to be a Blink 182 fan
Those with Tinie Tempah tickets might be surprised to hear that the rapper grew up listening to Blink 182.
Speaking to BANG Showbiz, Tinie revealed that as a child he was a big fan of the pop punk group.
The confession comes after he worked with Blink 182 drummer Travis Barker on a special remix of his track Simply Unstoppable for drinks brand Lucozade.
"To be honest, I grew up and I listened to Blink 182 when they came out when I was like, ten or 11 - but don't tell anyone!
"But to work with Travis on the track was amazing. He's one of the greatest drummers of a generation."
The 22-year-old recorded the track with Travis in L.A whilst shooting an advert for energy drink Lucozade alongside the drummer and world champion boxer Katie Taylor.
Tinie Tempah starts a UK tour at the Echo Arena in Liverpool on October 31st.
