Tinie Tempah Backed For MTV US Tips For 2011

Tinie Tempah is set to make a big name for himself in the US this year.

The UK rapper has been backed by MTV US as one of their tips for 2011.

"No British MC in recent memory, not since Dizzie Rascal at least, has seemed so primed for US success," MTV said.

Meanwhile, Tinie Tempah has been added to the line-up for next year's Benicassim festival in Spain.

Tickets for the festival are on sale now.
