10 Gcse's and 3 A levels later Tinie Tempah presents his first official offering to British Music, Hood Economics Room 147 of which he refers to as an 'Audio Scrapbook' is complete and ready for release. 'Hood Economics' is my dissertation which is open to the public I suppose,' he says, explaining the title. 'It's my own interpretation of music and economics based around Adam Smith's Invisible Hand, a theory I learnt at college. I strive to be the best as the standard of British urban music is so low at the moment which in turn has affected the type of deals artists are getting. I feel I'm what the industry is missing and Hood Economics Room 147 is my proof.'
Prior to this release, Tinie has given the public numerous hits including 'Wifey' which held the Number 1 position on the Channel U urban Chart for 10 consecutive weeks, toured alongside Dizzee Rascal & Sway for the release of Sony's PSP and recorded a charity single against knife and gun crime produced by Mike Stobbie and Rick Barraclough which received Nationwide press and news coverage from the BBC, ITV and Sky News.
"I really wanted to go to University and still will," says Humble Tinie. "I just feel that the time is now for the world to see what I'm capable of and so I'm putting my 100% into this, it's all independent, there's no help from the majors." Hood Economics Room 147 is an example of British music as its best with collaborations from some of the Urban scenes hottest artists and producers. With 28 tracks full of energy and creativity it is set to be a car stereo and iPod essential all year round.
