As a young guy from south London, I wanted to be able to make myself stand out.

I was well brought up, my parents are still together. I lived in a council estate, but I don't anymore; I saw my parents buy a nice house and move me to a nice area.

The way everyone in London is right up against each other makes it very real to you growing up, the fact that people have different lives to you. And that causes problems; of course it does.

I don't want to achieve less than my mum and dad.

Music has no race. It appeals to everybody.

I'm so down to earth, I'm bringing gravity back.

I'm actually going to the gym, working on getting not fatter, just a bit bulkier.
