British rapper Tinie Tempah either (A) shits money, or (B) loves Michael J. Fox.
The 22-year-old Londoner recently dropped a staggering $37,500 on a pair of Nike Mag sneakers at a Los Angeles charity auction benefiting the Michael J. Fox’s Parkinson’s foundation.
The limited-edition kicks are actually based on a design worn by Fox’s Back to the Future character, Marty McFly, and Tempah copped the first of 1,500 pairs.
Question is, will he rock him on stage when he rolls through Miami on Sunday, September 25, with Lupe Fiasco?
