Tinie Tempah Joining Lupe Fiasco on His Generation Laser Tour
London's biggest hip-hop export Tinie Tempah will hit the stage alongside fellow rhyme-spitter Lupe Fiasco on his Generation Laser tour next month. The 'Written in the Stars' rapper is on the road this fall in support of his celebrated LP 'Disc-Overy.'
The 16-city trek will hit college campuses and amphitheaters in the northeast beginning Sept. 15 in Monmouth, NJ, then in Washington, D.C. on Sept. 16 with Big Sean and Miguel. Then on Sept. 17, Tempah will rock the mic alongside Wale, Big Sean, Miguel and Fiasco for a major show in Philadelphia.
Afterward, Tempah and Fiasco will embark on the jaunt together through the south, midwest and west starting on Sept. 18 in Raleigh, NC. Their nationwide tour wraps up on Oct. 11 in Oakland, Calif.
Tempah is having a phenomenal year as his chart-topping single 'Written in the Stars' has been tapped as the anthem for Major League Baseball's 2011 postseason campaign 'Legends Are Born' in October. The campaign honors postseason baseball with highlights and memorable moments from the past season.
You can also catch Tempah performing his new single 'Till I'm Gone' with Wiz Khalifa on NBC's 'The Tonight Show With Jay Leno' on Sept. 8 at 11:30PM ET.
