Tinie Tempah Unlikely Noughts and Crosses Fan

[mrsanderson]

"People work hard just to get all their salary taxed
Look Im just a writer from the ghetto like Malorie Blackman"

It appears that Tinie totally hearts Malorie Blackman's Noughts and Crosses series. Good choice

Unsure whether she's 'from the ghetto' or not though...

Still, I'm weirdly impressed by this. Maybe impressed is not the right word. I'm... in some way affected by this.

Surely he can think of writers who are more... GHETTO, if he wants to make a meaningful political point?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA, Tinie Tempah.

[mrsanderson]

Yes...she's not very 'ghetto'...I think he's going for rhyme there, over substance.

Still...pretty odd. Though he's always coming out with weird stuff, is Tinie.

I still like, 'I've got so many clothes I keep some at my aunt's house.'

If anybody fancies reading up on Blackman, like Mr. Tempah, you can have a look at a wee biography and some reviews here:

He's got good taste in books, Mr Tempah.
