We say

Tinchy Stryder's major label debut is released this week, just after his second No.1 hit and his third top three single this year. He has notched up more than 800,000 singles in the UK, and there's plenty more on this album that we're sure can push that figure past 1m before the end of the year. Rapid & Dirty Dangerous from Ruff Sqwad, the grime collective Tinchy is part of, produce this album track. Production on the album comes from Fraser T Smith, Frankmusik and Chase & Status, among others, to create an excellent collection of pop, grime and electro tracks. JF London gig: September 25, Shepherds Bush Empire W12
