- Elephant
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I watched a film called 'Elephant' recently. Its not stylish in the sense of expensive suits and Italian cars, but the styling on every single character is spot on.

Playing someone drum 'n' bass for the first time in 'Pass Out' - they're like, 'Oh my God, what is this?' I'm having a lot of fun and a good time showcasing the music.

My glasses are from Cutler & Gross. They're not prescription: I just love wearing them. I used to wear Ray-Ban a lot and then I realised that a lot of the things I've started going for are a little bit more refined. I liked the fact that I was supporting a British brand, somebody I could have a relationship with and people that I could talk to.
- Fan

- Nov 07, 2020
I'm merely a fan of fashion from high end to streetwear, from Nike to Comme des Garcons.

- Nov 07, 2020
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.

- Nov 07, 2020
I really want to work with Adele, I think she's amazing. Lykke Li as well. I love them both. I'd also like to work with The Script. I met them in Australia and we just got on like a house on fire.

- Nov 07, 2020
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.
- Girl
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
There's this other girl called Lykke Li from Sweden - I really want to collaborate with her, that'd be great. Obviously Kanye West as well, and Drake would be pretty amazing.
- Cool
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Being able to travel the world is pretty cool. There are places that I've always wanted to go to but being able to go there as somebody who's a musician and is recognised as one is cool.

- |
- Nov 07, 2020
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.'
- Grow
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I'm into everything. My iPod is very eclectic - if you kept it on shuffle, you'd be amazed. For example, I was forced to grow up on Dolly Parton. My mum was obsessed by her. She bought all this memorabilia for the front room. It's ridiculous.
- Music
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
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.
- Drive
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I don't think I've had to change anything, really, apart from being more serious and focussed on my drive. One thing I've realised is that you get out what you put in and because of that my work rate has increased ten fold.
- Go
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
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.
- Go
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
You have to do a show, an interview, you've got to go straight back on the road to another location, make a track and edit things like footage etc. It's non stop. I really respect the hustle and work rate of Chipmunk, as well as N-Dubz and Tinchy Stryder.
- Life
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I lived in Peckham for the first 12 years of my life and then my mum and dad decided they really didn't want to bring up their children there. So they saved up money and bought a house in Plumstead, semi-detached, three bedrooms.
- Family
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
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.
- Poetry
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I actually remember celebrating National Poetry Day at school; I remember having to write and read a load.
- Good
- |

- People
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
When you look at the Lady Gagas of the world, or the Jay-Zs, or the Black Eyed Peas, these are people who have one album release and it's a worldwide one.
- Myself
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I'm starting to think about my life, thinking about where I'm going to be in three years time: who I'm going to be with, where I'm going to be situated myself.
- Going
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I'm actually going to the gym, working on getting not fatter, just a bit bulkier.
- Me
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
When I was about 14 I remember thinking when it came to proposing to my future girlfriend, I'd make a CD with all her favourite songs and a message that said, 'Will you marry me?' Shows you what a romantic I was. No one listens to CDs any more. It's all about iTunes.
- Music
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Artists take on an alias that's suitable for their style of music. Everyone had a nickname when they were younger.
- Go
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I feel like I'm indirectly showing people, not that there's another way, but just that if you really have a dream, you should try and give it a go.
- End Of The Day
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
At the end of the day, I'm a human being and I just think that's what it is. Challenging stereotypes by just being who I am.
- Parents
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
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.
- Change
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Gone are the days when you'd have to tune in to a mad illegal radio station late at night to be able to hear the rapper of your choice. That's all changed now. That's all gone out of the window. And I feel like I represent that change. I represent the era of iPods and Shuffle and things like that.
- Dad
