Tinie Tempah’s “Pass Out” is the biggest selling single by any UK artist this year so far and his new single “Frisky” doesn’t disappoint. You have to admit the tunes sound pretty similar but as the song runs on you begin to appreciate the new style of UK hip hop Tinie is creating. The song is filled with provocative and often comical lyrics like “Would you risk it for a chocolate biscuit?” Some may be put off by this after a first listen but the original lyrics just give it that extra edge. The tune is infused with drum and bass beats which make it a hard one to resist and a real club classic for those long summer nights to come. As refreshing and uplifting as Dizzee Rascal in his heyday.
