I was like, 'If I bang your thing, will you bang my thing? Will you sing on my album?' And he was like, 'Yeah, of course.' So I've got Robbie Williams on my album. Robbie Williams on grime.

The danger is that the artists who'll put grime into the commercial and public eye will put grime at the back of their closets and jump on another genre of music.

I don't really know what I'm doing that's making everybody happy.

Hopefully I've inspired a lot of people who thought they'd never be able to get their own TV show to give it a go.

I'm the prime example of it; think about it, you know. My whole career has blown up by genuine people power.

I would say 'The Big Narstie Show' is the United Colours of Benetton; it's for everyone. But I would definitely say that it has a black appeal, because that's what I am.

I'm my production team's biggest nightmare.
