"Shooting Star 4 release"

Shooting Star 4 release!ʼ

The album in question is ʻShooting Star 4 ʼ, but itʼs not exactly new.
May the 28th 2009, officially. However, you could forgive Tempmanʼs wide-eyed enthusiasm. Heʼd just spent a couple of months in prison – he was reluctant to specify how was the fourth straight month of promotion by the Brixton rapper.

A strong work ethic is a common trait amongst Britainʼs best rappers, and Tempman is no exception.

World. Iʼm trying to show that itʼs not all about America. People are coming down and people are coming up, weʼre coming up. We head to Stockwell Community Centre for some CDs and posters – me playing the role of busboy – and go down to Red Records, THE record shop in town. The owners are familiar Tempman, everybody is familiar with Tempman. Every other minute another happy face wanders over for a hug and some small talk. Heʼs softly spoken with some, aggressively jovial with others.

A contradiction. Contradictions comes to the fore when the topic of Poverty Driven Children is brought up. PDC, once known for rampaging throughout Brixton, used Islam as a cloak for their deeds. Tempman, who comes under the hangar of PDC Entertainment, says the gang has reformed and rejects all forms of violence; moments later heʼd claim ʻI brought [gang colours]ʼ from the USA to London.

Bio

Tempman is a well known name in the UK rap scene. He is one of the youngest yet talented rappers out there today.

Born on the 7th November 1987, Tempman is the youngest boy from a large family of two brothers
he does not know and 3 sisters. Born in the UK to a Jamaican mother and Nigerian father, he spent most of his up bringing in various children’s homes across the country.

For someone who has had it tough from a very young age and was moved around a lot, this young man today is a bright, fun-loving artist, who has a natural exuberance for life.

“I grew up in Brixton, and still live there now. This is where I spent most of my days, and where I learnt the art of being an MC”.

Tempman started off as a jungle MC. Listening to Jungle and performing to it is what he most enjoyed doing, but it wasn’t always plain-sailing. He was moved around alot, and at one point was shipped from Brixton to Kent & Margate. It was here that he decided it was all or nothing.

“I used to be a rubbish MC-I was so bad, but I carried on writing, carried on spitting and just got better and better-I refused to give up”. From the age of 12 music today, Garage.
