Coming from an African background, obviously the foundation of the family home is education, probably because my parents had to work a lot harder for everything that they've got in this country.

I met Ellie Goulding at the BRITs. She's lovely. I've got a lot of time for her. I gave her congratulations and whatnot and she let me hold her BRIT. That was amazing - once I'd touched one for the first time, I said 'This cannot be the last time I touch a BRIT.

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

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

If people are not listening to you as individuals, it's always good to get together and make a stand for something.

I watched my parents go from having very basic jobs to educating themselves, to buying a house. They set a really good bar for what they wanted their kids to achieve.

I've seen how much effort has to go into a tour, the performance and also how to look after yourself, not just physically, but mentally too.
