Musician

Bollywood is just amazing.

A lot of my writing is done on the road so I can take the music on my iPod, work out a melody then record it into Cubase.

Music is a language that should have no barriers.

My granddad doesn't care if he falls down when he's singing, he's just having a laugh.

I've got my fanbase; I believe in my music; I believe in my vision... And ain't no-one gonna stop me from doing that!

I've never claimed myself to be a particularly Asian R&B singer. I'm R&B, pure and simple, regardless of my skin colour. Should that matter? I think not.

Birdman is probably one of the most intelligent music moguls out there.

I don't like to hold grudges, I don't like to talk ill of people.

I grew up on R&B and soul, so that backbone is always there.

I've always found that there are loads of people out there with real talent will never get discovered. Shows like 'The X Factor' can help that and give people the confidence to do what they want.

I buy lots of my software over the net from the States.

Fashion is a huge part of my life.

I remember when Kriss Kross came out! I was round about the same age, or maybe a couple of years younger.

I feel I have a lot to share, I have stories for years, and I've been through everything, there's nothing you can throw at me that I haven't been through.

While I write for myself, I also write for other artists too.

I started writing rhymes in fact when I was 11 or 12 years old. I was actually into hip hop before anything else.

When you're sharply dressed I think you feel more confident.

In school, I used to write scripts and all that good stuff.

I get so frustrated when it takes longer than a couple of seconds to load a page - I couldn't live without the Internet now.

The pride I feel in representing my people, no matter where I am, is never going to diminish. I could be in Hong Kong, Singapore, Egypt or even Las Vegas, I'll always be representing my people.
