I understand people have to go to work and earn money and bring up kids, but I always thought, "Why can't I just do what I want to do?"

I just got really desperate to pay rent. It was weird, man. I had to wrestle a fake pussy off a crack head once.

I'm a long way off finishing the LP, but I've got an idea in my head of exactly how I want it to look and sound.

I was really into hip-hop as a teenager. I dressed up like Tupac with baggy jeans and a dodgy bandanna around my head. I was pretty confused at that time.

I want to move away from sampling records and just have it be quite minimal. I don't want any more hip-hop beats in there.

My uncle was a music producer and even he'd tell me to get a proper job. I tried to get him to give me five grand to make an album - it didn't happen.

I'm more confident in my music now because people are saying it's good - I'm trying to believe it, but it's very difficult. I don't know if it's going to end in disaster.
