TINIE Tempah is recording his second album in a top secret Greenwich location.
The south London rapper, who shot to fame with his double-platinum debut album, left the glitz and glamour of LA to "stop his head disappearing up his backside".
He told reporters at an Esquire party that, although he started recording in amazing studios in America, "something was missing".
The Plumstead-educated star said: "LA’s a strange place and you can get caught up in that world.
"I came back to London and started working in this tiny, plain studio in Greenwich. Straight away it was like boom, boom, boom. The songs and the inspiration just came.
"It refocused me, and I think it kept me in check. I think it stopped my head disappearing up my backside and made me reconnect with my music."
Those who don’t spot Tinie in Greenwich can grab his album Demonstration from September.
