Grime is a particular style of music. You've got electro, funk and garage; grime is its darker side. It's constantly evolving.

I first became interested in style when I was 16 and I had my first couple of gigs. I realised I couldn't look like the people I was performing to. Not in a condescending way, but just that it would be weird if I was wearing exactly what someone in the crowd was wearing.

This is the kind of fashion I grew up on - a good pair of trainers, great denim - and I will always love high-end streetwear.

People discover you at festivals. They come to see Coldplay or whoever, and then wander over and catch your act. Festivals make a lot of sense to me.

People used to say poems were different to songs but I don't think they are.

I grew up in an eclectic house where people were listening to all types of different music. I also think being educated, eloquent and knowing how to talk for yourself in the industry makes you go a long way.

At the end of the day, you sign a record deal and you understand where it could go if you had the right song.
