Tinie Tempah's hoping his "good relationship" with Jay-Z can blossom into some work.

Tinie, a two-times BRIT winner this month admits that working with Jay-Z is not out of the question. "There’s a little bit of truth in that, he said on a radio station that he reckons I have what it takes to make it out there [USA] so I was really happy about that.

“Since then we’ve built up the relationship in the sense that I did the official remix for Willow Smith’s Whip My Hair. There’s a good relationship there but as for working and doing a track, that’s not something that’s been discussed yet."

He also told Capital FM, "I really wanna push the boat out on my next album and go even wackier so there’s a few obvious collaborations here and there but expect some really, really eccentric ones."
