Tinie Tempah hasn't given up on his Adele duet

Tinie Tempah is still hopeful about the prospect of a duet with Adele.

The 'Simply Unstoppable' hitmaker was due to col­lab­or­ate with everyone's favourite sad singer last year but it all went tits up after Adele underwent throat surgery.

Despite admitting that she might not have the time now, Tinie's not given up hope.

"She’s having the time of her life and if at any stage in the future [a team up] happens, that’d be great, but for now, I can imagine she must on cloud nine," he told Noise 11.

Tinie's second album, 'Demonstration', is due later this year.
