Certified Summa Jam #1

From now on Imma release a series of posts with songs I feel should be on your summer playlist.  The first of these shall by the latest collab between Tinie Tempah and Wiz Khalifa, entitled "'Till I'm Gone" - which was released for free on his official mixtape Foreign Object.

Tinie Tempah is probably unknown to most people in the Bahamas, but he's a British rapper who blew up when he released his first single "Pass Out" around Feb 2010 in the UK.  I still remember hearing it on the radio for the 1st time and being instantly hooked by the man's hilarious rhymes and the club-ready drum n bass beat.  Since then he's linked with the Swedish House Mafia to create the banger "Miami 2 Ibiza" and released a whole string of his own singles.  

"Till I'm Gone" features man of the moment Wiz Khalifa on the chorus and Tinie spitting some hard lines.  To give an example of the quality lyricism, check out these brilliantly crafted words, hahahaa  :D

          Ok I’m in it, I’m in it to the finish
          I keep them bottles coming like my card ain't got no limit
          Got some friends that playing football
          And some friends that playing cricket
          And a mistress that is fine like a f***ing parking ticket
          Haha
          I said I’m in it, I’m in it til the finish
          I keep them bottles coming til there ain't nothing in it
          I’m like Mario on mushrooms
          I’m like Popeye on some spinach
          We gon keep it coming till I no speaka no english!
