The young MC blasted into the charts with one of the last year’s killer pop hooks, Diamond Rings, which - for those unfamiliar with his romantic lyricism he described as ‘the s***’. Just the sort of flowery lingo to win him fans in America, the market he vows to conquer. But could he stand the heat? It’s a notoriously tough nut to crack (ask Robbie, Jordan et al) and recent reports don’t augur well; he’s been posting disturbing tweets such as ‘I wanna die’ and ‘is suicide easy?’ Oopsy daisy! Crack America when it looks like you’re cracking up in Britain? Is this wise? (Ask Amy). Minders advised rest, which presumably included a night out at full-on nightclub Whisky Mist at Rhianna’s party just days later? He bounces back quick but I worry that for all his swagger and attitude, the lil’ Chip Diddy chappy might be a delicate blossom. Time to cash in his chips and become a monk?
