Black and White

Everybody's talking about 26 year old Jermaine Scott, aka Wretch 32. Adele, Jessie J and Rio Ferdinand have penned excited tweets about him, Liam Gallagher and Nikki Minaj have praised his music in interviews, 50 Cent's blogged about him, and P Diddy and Mark Ronson have asked him to jump up on stage with them. Chipmunk, The Streets and Wiley were among the first to ask him to record with them, and Professor Green and Tinie Tempah followed suit shortly after, inviting him to support them on tour while Ian Brown gave him the greenlight to use a sample from the Stone Roses' Fools Gold for his chart topping single 'Unorthodox', a collaboration with fellow London rapper Example, who has compared Wretch's 'charismatic' effortless flow-with-that of Jay Z.
