A celebration of Tinie Tempah's extraordinary career to date, from his childhood to the making of his albums Disc-Overy and Demonstration.

Written In The Stars: The Story Of Tinie Tempah sees Gemma Cairney dig a little deeper into the story of the man behind the massive hits Pass Out, Frisky, Written in the Stars, Trampoline and Children of the Sun, to name but a few...

Looking at Tinie's childhood, his early attempts to make it in the industry, and the making of his music, from album 'Disc-Overy' to 'Demonstration', this story chronicles Tinie's rise to fame, from the very beginnings to present day.

Including live performances of his biggest hits and exclusive interviews with Tinie himself, as well as his cousin/manager Dumi, contemporaries such as Chipmunk and Labrinth, collaborators such as Ellie Goulding, and industry experts such as Trevor Nelson and Gordon Smart.

Also featuring his fans and teachers and students from his former school in Greenwich, London, this programme updates the Story originally broadcast on 1Xtra in 2010, giving you the inside track on the Brit Award winning musician with one of the best wardrobe's in the business!
