Not long to wait!
Tinie Tempah has been away from music over the last few years, but after dropping his collab ‘Eat It Up’ with Skepsis, and appearing in the Love Island villa this year, the singer has now started to tease a new song.
Taking to his socials to share a couple of clips of his new song, along with a QR code, the singer confirmed the release date, writing: ‘Closer is out FRIDAY. Me + @abiflynnworld went crazy on this one 🤯
‘pre-save in bio & I might just see u at the studio 👀✨’.
This follows Tinie’s post last week where he revealed it was a week until his new song’s release, playing a longer clip, and telling fans: ‘One week till ‘CLOSER’ is out. Let’s lock in Junglelists 🔐’. (sic)
What is the new song called?
It is called ‘Closer’.
When will it be released?
It will be released on Friday 26th September.
Who features on the song?
Abi Flynn features on the new song. She is a Brighton-based singer and producer and has featured on songs by Nathan Dawe (Here In Your Arms), Joel Corry (‘Phases’) and D.O.D. (‘So Much In Love’).
