Wiz Khalifa thinks Tinie is "pretty swagged out"

U.S rap newcomer Wiz Khalifa has spoken out about his collaboration with Tinie Tempah and has expressed "huge respect" for the 'Frisky' star. 

The pair recently worked together on a track named 'Till I'm Gone', which features on the American edition of Tinie's debut album, 'Disc-Overy', and Khalifa thinks the British star's relatable but quirky appeal will help him out stateside:

"His flow is amazing. It's different, but not too different that people can't grasp it."

"There's nothing wrong with being different but people are usually scared of the different and what they can't understand. Tinie has found a way to mesh everything and make everybody feel comfortable. Plus the girls love him - he's a pretty swagged-out individual."

Khalifa performed his first live set in the UK on May 15 at Radio 1's Big Weekend and you can listen to the pair's joint offering here:
