I know a lot of grime artists started off on pirate radio, but I missed that era; I was way too young.
I read so many books when I was a kid that I didn't even know were shaping me up.
I grew up in south London, and I remember watching the scene pop off in East and think, 'Ahhhh, I would love to be in Bow E3 right now spitting wid Wiley and Dizzee.'
What I'm doing is British. It stems from the same culture as U.S. hip-hop, but the way we dress, the way we speak, the way we perform is so different. It's U.K. street culture.
