Tinchy Stryder Wants to Team up with Dance Producer
Thursday, November 26th, 2009Tinchy Stryder has revealed that he is eager to collaborate with Calvin Harris in the future.
The rapper, who teamed up with N-Dubz, Amelle Berrabah and Taio Cruz on his recent album Catch 22, said that he admires Harris’s recent work.
“I love his beats and his style of music. He knows what he wants and what he’s doing, which is always key when you’re working with someone. One day we’ll definitely be doing something together,” he told DS.
The star insisted that he was not annoyed when Harris beat him to No. 1 with his album Ready For The Weekend earlier this year.
“It was all healthy competition. He’s a cool guy and I said congratulations to him when he got to No.1,” he said.
“To have a number two album is a big enough thing for me, but obviously having a No.1 is the thing that everyone wants. Maybe next time I’ll challenge him again and beat him.”
Taio Cruz’s record label wants him to stop writing so many hits.
The producer-and-singer – who penned recent UK number one single ‘Never Leave You’, which was recorded by Tinchy Stryder featuring Amelle Berrabah – has revealed his bosses have been getting angry with him for writing so many tracks for other artists.
He said: “I kept writing them and the record company kept shouting at me because I kept giving all the songs away.
