Our current issue, Q304, is an extra-special one: it's our 25th birthday.
To mark the occasion the magazine boasts 25 different covers featuring 25 different acts currently who are currently shaping music.
Each day, we¹ll be printing an exclusive extract from one of the 25 cover interviews. Today, it's the turn of Tinie Tempah, who tells us about the best advice another musician has given to him.
Talking through the music that shaped him into the artist he is, Tempah reveals he got some relationship advice from a rather unlikely source.
"Don't get married -Lionel Richie told me that," he tells Q. "He said, You know what? Just don't get married, T. And Damon Albarn said Never, ever compromise. Do what you do, what you love. You'll become a popular artist off the back of your creativity. He's one of the people I show my music to a lot; I value his opinion."
Come back tomorrow for another exclusive cover story extract from Q304.
To get your favourite cover head to Greatmagazines.co.uk/Q25 and grab the artists of your choice while stocks last.
