Tinie Tempah - Like It or Love It
Artist: Tinie Tempah
Featuring: Wretch 32 , J. Cole
Producer: SX
Album: Happy Birthday
Label: Parlophone/Capitol
Over the course of three featured jams and one acclaimed album, Tinie Tempah has never scored below a very respectable 3.3 stars/spins from our readership. With the London representative’s latest effort, the operative question isn’t “Will you like it?”, but rather, “Will you Like It or Love It?” Here, Tempah recruits homies from both sides of the Atlantic to join him in an epic stunting session over SX‘s simmering synth boardwork (complete with… are those elephant noises? Moose calls?). After the headliner’s done showing off his “all black everything” style on the front, Unorthodox rhymesayer Wretch 32 grabs the mic to lace the middle with some big-money talk to the middle. Whereas his Across-the-Pond colleagues keep the focus on big money and fly outfits, “Fayettenam” native J. Cole exults in Europe’s own reputation for luxury and sophistication on the back, spitting, “The south of France we out in Cannes and I ain’t never been on no yacht before…” So, which is it, Booth readers—like or love? Either way, you’re gonna want to keep it locked for the latest on Tinie Tempah’s Happy Birthday tape, scheduled to hit the ‘net sometime this week.

Same thing I always write in my feedback of a Tinie Tempah (or any UK rapper) record - if you are not bothered by his accent while spittin', you'll love it. The beat is cold and Cole sounds at home alongside his English allies.

Yeah, can't really get past the accent, but the feature from Cole was good.

UK dudes got nice flows! (See S.A.S Eurogang). The beat was cool and dude has a nice flow. Chorus was good too. 3.5 out of 5...

Dope. Cole had an insane flow at the beginning. Wretch and Tinie are also super solid over banging production.

I like Cole's effort on his verse, but I don't really love this song all in all.

I kind of like his accent. It's different and brings a unique sound to the track. Sick beat, and Cole is a nice feature as well.

The accent does get in the way of the track. But I aside from that, everything else is pretty mediocre.

Serious? The accent? I think it suits who he is, if he didn't put it on then it wouldn't be temper, I quite like it, infact I love it.
