This Saturday, rapper Chip visited Radio 1 & 1Xtra to deliver one of the fiercest ‘Fire in the Booths’ ever heard for Charlie Sloth.
He’s been away for a while and it’s fair to say he’s been doing a lot of thinking about the music scene and has something to say about one individual MC – Tinie Tempah.
Last year (a year ago today), Tinie Tempah delivered a Fire In the Booth for Charlie which Chip was unhappy about. Chip took exception to some of the lines from Tinie during his freestyle, particularly the line “I left the pizza boys that thought I won’t deliver again, you say you’re gonna be around, let’s see who is in the end” which Chip believed was an intentional dig at him because he has a track called ‘Pizza boy’.
In response, Chip had a lot to say about Tinie and amongst other things, has called Tinie out to start using his popularity to make music that says something that matters and be a voice for his community rather than just being seen at fashion parties.
The pizza boy has delivered, will Tinie respond?
