Tinchy Stryder has been given a big break in America.

Fellow short stuff Lil Wayne has invited the chart-topper to support him when he tours the US.

Tinchy – whose next single, You’re Not Alone, is out on October 26 – was recently flown out to the States and wined and dined by labels and rap heavies there.

Now offers to work with him are pouring in thick and fast.

A source said: “Tinchy is being taken very seriously over there, which is rare for a Brit rapper.

“A lot of important people in the hip-hop world think he’s the best thing to come out of the UK in a long time.”
