Speaker 1: We're not we're not. We're not media trained, but I've
Speaker 1: had enough. It's the thing. English people aren't media trained,
Speaker 1: so we just come out with with random but it's um, yeah,
Speaker 1: I think so. Yeah. Well, journalists definitely like us a

Speaker 1: might be quite important. I clicked on one of them
Speaker 1: and it was a girl bent over and then a
Speaker 1: penis like a catapult like like but with like a ball,
Speaker 1: and they fired it in and I know it was
Speaker 1: that customs like because they don't let English people in

Speaker 1: supposed to be on your phone in customs. No you're not,
Speaker 1: You're not. Well yeah, yeah, I mean I still fly commercial.
Speaker 1: I'll keep it real. You've got a lot of industry
Speaker 1: friends for like such a regular guy, Like, do you've
Speaker 1: really valued all the industry relationships, Like do you think
Speaker 1: they're real? Some of them, Yeah, some of them, some
Speaker 1: of them. You know. It's it's uh, it's it's interesting
Speaker 1: because I I dropped out of school at a young
Speaker 1: age and kind of found most of my friends in
Speaker 1: older people, and it wasn't until I got into the
Speaker 1: industry that I started really making Like I got my
Speaker 1: school friends and stuff, but making friends of people that
Speaker 1: were a similar age to me. So it's um and
Speaker 1: they're all kind of doing the same sort of thing,
Speaker 1: and it's it's hard to have a conversation with someone
Speaker 1: that doesn't really know what is happening in your life.
Speaker 1: But if someone yeah, it's it's it's cool, it's cool.
Speaker 1: You can have good chats. Do you think these guys
Speaker 1: would be your friends if you weren't like ed Sharing
Speaker 1: the star recording artist. Yeah, because most of them of
Speaker 1: my friends when nothing was really happening here. So yeah,
Speaker 1: I guess, I guess. So I hope so well your
Speaker 1: industry friends. Who would you get to your industry friends?
Speaker 1: Did Jamie Faxton you know she discovered you? Yeah? I did.
Speaker 1: I did a gig and my first American gig was
Speaker 1: in Englewood at a place called the Savoy Entertainment Theater
Speaker 1: for a night called Fly Poet, which is a fantastic night.
Speaker 1: And I turned up that night and I just said,
Speaker 1: if anyone knows any other shows, can you can you
Speaker 1: book me in? I'm here for a month, I've got
Speaker 1: no plans. Noticed and John, the guy that ran it,
Speaker 1: took me around. He got me booked in for the Foxhoul.
Speaker 1: I met Jamie Fox's manager there who invited me on
Speaker 1: the radio show. And then I was like, I don't
Speaker 1: really have a place to stay, and he was like, well,
Speaker 1: come and stay with me. So just did come stay
Speaker 1: with me? Yeah, at his house. Yeah, and we went
Speaker 1: to It was mad like because I arrived at the house,
Speaker 1: I didn't really know what was happening to me. He's like, right,
Speaker 1: we're going to my make's birthday party. As soon as
Speaker 1: I arrived. And we went and Rafael said was the
Speaker 1: house band. Everyone was dressed up as a cowboy and
Speaker 1: it was whoa wait a minute, a coboy. It was
Speaker 1: a bunch of guys and they dressed up like cowboys,
Speaker 1: girls and girls and it was like it was like
Speaker 1: a Rodeo themed birthday party. Look, did you see the
Speaker 1: wall where he keeps all his hair lines? You know,
Speaker 1: he got a bunch of hair lines like snack backs. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I saw the awards cabinet. That was pretty impressive. He's
Speaker 1: he's he's to win a Grammy. Annon Oscar is pretty
Speaker 1: like legit. Yeah, So does he make money off you
Speaker 1: being there? He kind of like he really did discover you,
Speaker 1: Like did he take you to other people? Well? I
Speaker 1: flew back to England about three days after arriving at
Speaker 1: his house. And yeah, so I I basically went to
Speaker 1: go and build it back over in England. I think
Speaker 1: if I'd have stayed over in America there would have
Speaker 1: been something, but yeah, I had to go back to
Speaker 1: England and do it. Do it. You got a lot
Speaker 1: of lot for Cally. You got a whole album with
Speaker 1: the game done. Yeah that was interesting. Yeah. He took
Speaker 1: me to Compton to work and we well we did
Speaker 1: like ten songs in two days. It was take another drink.
Speaker 1: So well, I need to know more about you. So
Speaker 1: what do you mean Compton? What did y'all do? I
Speaker 1: made a lot of songs, made a lot of songs.
Speaker 1: I mean he's obliged. He wears ray Jo red headed.
Speaker 1: Didn't you know what I'm I've He's one of my
Speaker 1: favorite rappers just like lyrically but also like with singers,
Speaker 1: you can hear the emotion, but sometimes with rappers just
Speaker 1: lyrics and flows, whereas him it's very emotive and very
Speaker 1: um I feel everything that he says. So I got
Speaker 1: a cool random cool is like what up? It's game?
Speaker 1: My girls? A fan? Can she say hi? And I
Speaker 1: think the phone was like hey, and then I said.
Speaker 1: He went back on the phone and I said, I'm
Speaker 1: going to be in La tomorrow. Do you want to
Speaker 1: hook up and do a song? So I went there
Speaker 1: and we did like five songs in a day. I
Speaker 1: went back the next day we did another five and
Speaker 1: it was he's a really good worker. He just kind
Speaker 1: of smashes them out. But that he had loads of
Speaker 1: girls in the studio just eating McDonald's and you could
Speaker 1: you could find out when a song was good because
Speaker 1: we'd make a song and I'd be like, oh, this
Speaker 1: is really good, but they'd just be kind of there
Speaker 1: just eating their nuggets, just like whatever. And then as
Speaker 1: soon as one that, you know, we did a mustard
Speaker 1: beat one and they'd be Oh, that's that's how you
Speaker 1: know they were And I think I think he keeps
Speaker 1: them like like um like Farrell. Farrell does it as
Speaker 1: well where he tests songs out on groups of women
Speaker 1: to see because they're the ones that are the consumers,
Speaker 1: like that, they're the ones that would love the music.
Speaker 1: I mean, guys are kind of go on what the
Speaker 1: girls going. So yeah, Farrell test tests out on women
Speaker 1: women as well. I think it's a good it's a
Speaker 1: good thing. And now listen your music, and you seem
Speaker 1: like such a nice guy, and it seems like you're
Speaker 1: always like kind of looking for love, Like is that
Speaker 1: a real thing? Are you just you know? Is that
Speaker 1: just game to get the girls? Ah? No, I think
Speaker 1: you know. I I come from a like Irish Catholic family.
Speaker 1: My parents been married for thirty one years. My grandparents
Speaker 1: are married for sixty six years. I have like a
Speaker 1: bunch of cousins. Everyone's married and has loads of kids.
Speaker 1: And I just come from a background of love and family.
Speaker 1: And I guess that's what I tried to convey in
Speaker 1: the music. Now mean that a lot of your friends
Speaker 1: are music industry friends. Does that mean that the women
Speaker 1: that you date, because I know you write a lot
Speaker 1: about celebrity women that you've dated, you feel like you
Speaker 1: have to be with the celebrity woman because you'll understand
Speaker 1: you more. No, I just I just think. I just
Speaker 1: think if if if you get on with the person,
Speaker 1: they can understand, they can understand you. It's not I
Speaker 1: don't think it's necessarily celebrity women. I think, you know,
Speaker 1: it just depends on the situation and in times, what
Speaker 1: you say you've been heartbroken so far, probably about as
Speaker 1: many times as I've done it. You know. It's um,
Speaker 1: you know, I think I think in in life you
Speaker 1: break hearts and have your heart broken, and I think
Speaker 1: that's just the way, especially when you're telling girls you
Speaker 1: want to grow old with them and be with them
Speaker 1: to their seventy. Man. Okay, I'm just gonna drink my coffee,
Speaker 1: you know, but not for nothing. Charlotmagne about a year ago,
Speaker 1: was telling the girls the same exact story and same
Speaker 1: exact line. You're married, right, yes, So what were you
Speaker 1: telling the girls that I was lying? That was lying everyone, everyone,
Speaker 1: to everyone, that I was telling them what they want
Speaker 1: to do? Her me as a faithful memo. Right now,
Speaker 1: I am now. Man, Well, I got married in September. Oh,
Speaker 1: I don't know what the same girl for a long
Speaker 1: time safe. So those vials really mean something to me.
Speaker 1: So I've been good. So you wan't good before? Absolutely not.
Speaker 1: Does she know that? Yes? Good? Everyone knows that. Yes.
Speaker 1: You gotta be honest. Honesty is the because then you
Speaker 1: know if you really love a preson, because you're like, okay,
Speaker 1: you love them through all their mistakes, through all their flaws,
Speaker 1: and you have to have favorite that that person will
Speaker 1: be better. I mean absolutely. Now you work with Lupe,
Speaker 1: you work with the game. Who somebody that you want
Speaker 1: to work with that you have it. Uh. One of
Speaker 1: the most interesting experiences actually was working with Rick Ross
Speaker 1: because he's such a character you didn't word with. Yeah,
Speaker 1: well he remix the song of Mine. But the way,
Speaker 1: the way I met him was Julie Greenwood that runs
Speaker 1: Atlantic and and Warner. She I was in the building
Speaker 1: and she grows a nice woman. I don't think I've
Speaker 1: ever but she she rings me up and she's like,
Speaker 1: I got I got someone who has to meet you.
Speaker 1: Come come in the office right now. And the only
Speaker 1: way I can describe it is just this presence just
Speaker 1: walks out a big homie and kind of like like
Speaker 1: comes in for the hug. And then and then she's like,
Speaker 1: you gotta remix this record. Let me play the record.
Speaker 1: And so he sits down. I sit next to him,
Speaker 1: and I don't know whether he likes the song. He's
Speaker 1: just kind of sitting there and the song's playing, and
Speaker 1: every now and then he just looks over and goes
Speaker 1: every sort of like ten. I've started doing this. I've
Speaker 1: started doing this. But yeah, and then as soon as
Speaker 1: it ends, he's just like a just stands out and
Speaker 1: gets really excited. He's like, right, I got the video
Speaker 1: a deal, right, some dusty ass low income house and
Speaker 1: places that Arkansas. You win a house, I'm coming to
Speaker 1: get you. All you see is dust dust dust. Then
Speaker 1: suddenly rolls Royce Fan and puts out, pulls up in
Speaker 1: front of the house. You getting them bam vegas, seacup
Speaker 1: titties to rack mmg, it's all going on, he said,
Speaker 1: seacup titties, seacup can work all right, right, yeah, but yeah,
Speaker 1: we never got to make that video. I think that
Speaker 1: would have been fun. Has never come out, like the
Speaker 1: labels came out, came out, well, even on the start
Speaker 1: of the game that came out, that came out. That
Speaker 1: hasn't come out yet just because I haven't properly finished it.
Speaker 1: I did it with drum and based band called Rudimental
Speaker 1: as as as well, and they'd be making their album
Speaker 1: once they've finished making their album making tweak bits and stuff.
Speaker 1: But um, I'd really like to put it out some
Speaker 1: there's some cool stuff now. The true If you're planning
Speaker 1: on taking a break from music, for a year so
Speaker 1: you can do normal things, do you know what I
Speaker 1: I The first thing I bought in my career was
Speaker 1: a house and I haven't really lived in it. And
Speaker 1: I want to just live for a bit, uh here
Speaker 1: in America or no, it's in It's it's it's where
Speaker 1: I grew up. But yeah, I think the thing it's
Speaker 1: not necessarily just live. It's just not tall like not
Speaker 1: spend a different every day in a different place making
Speaker 1: money though, Yeah I know, but you know, publishing, you
Speaker 1: can sit still and you can come home and write
Speaker 1: and do stuff with the other people and collaborations and
Speaker 1: go back on tour later. Yeah, I mean I'd like to.
Speaker 1: I'd like to just live in my hometown for a
Speaker 1: little bit, you know, do stuff, watch films and I
Speaker 1: don't know. You've also said they label didn't think Living
Speaker 1: out Loud was going to be like a huge hit song.
Speaker 1: They didn't even want it to be the single. No,
Speaker 1: well it's a weird thing because um the song, the
Speaker 1: single at the moment song called Photograph and that was
Speaker 1: always meant to be the big single. And when we
Speaker 1: released the album in England, Thinking out Loud, which just
Speaker 1: I mean thinking of it yeah, that's all right. M
Speaker 1: It was just picked off the record just on iTunes
Speaker 1: and it just went top twenty up until we decided
Speaker 1: to make a video for it. So it was more
Speaker 1: the public's reaction because when you put out a record
Speaker 1: now you can work out what the most popular song
Speaker 1: is just based on iTunes. So so yeah, it was that.
Speaker 1: Um and yeah it worked out, it was I think
Speaker 1: I think it did all right. Yeah, let's cool. Who
Speaker 1: the hell is Nina? I liked that song off off
Speaker 1: X Nina? Is that a fictional character or not somebody?
Speaker 1: That was? Yeah? No, I was, I was with I
Speaker 1: was with her for a while. Yeah. Um, and I
Speaker 1: wrote that song well, well still with her actually um.
Speaker 1: And and photograph actually but photographs about Nina tool Yeah
Speaker 1: yeah but yeah no, that that was um Yeah, Now
Speaker 1: I see why you and Taylor Swift get along. So
Speaker 1: were you like writing songs about your exes? I think
Speaker 1: any musician, like all love songs are about someone's ex
Speaker 1: or current I don't know, Yeah, well you never hooked
Speaker 1: up with Tailor swiftf you never smashed it? No? No, Um,
Speaker 1: I don't know, because well I I met have a
Speaker 1: drink in then are for that? Question, you just trying
Speaker 1: to get me drunk? Uh. I met a professionally. First
Speaker 1: we were writing songs and then um, I don't know.
Speaker 1: I just I get on really well with her, and
Speaker 1: you know you don't want to ruin your friendship. Well not.
Speaker 1: I mean that sounds a bit weird. But have you
Speaker 1: ever tried to smash no too tall, the short man
Speaker 1: of nothing better than the tire Woman. I don't know, man,
Speaker 1: I don't know. I feel like we look like cast
Speaker 1: members of the Hobbit. Like she's like she's like in
Speaker 1: the Elven Kingdom. She's like, you know, hanging out with
Speaker 1: glad reel and stuff, and um, you know, got hairy feet.
Speaker 1: And in a couple of years, if we see you
Speaker 1: all together, we shouldn't be like he lied at us,
Speaker 1: because things could you know. I don't know. You know,
Speaker 1: I've I've got like my best friend from home, who
Speaker 1: I live opposite, who's who's Who's on tour is female,
Speaker 1: And I think it's healthy to have female friends that
Speaker 1: you don't smash. Got you now, did you used to
Speaker 1: get girls before your music popped off? Yeah, look like you.
Speaker 1: I've been out here christ for him now. So you
Speaker 1: was getting chicks in the UK, And I mean, I'm
Speaker 1: sure more now I know I was in a long
Speaker 1: term relationship from school up until up until it sort
Speaker 1: sort of it's taking off. Yeah, that's what most of
Speaker 1: the first albums about. And did you feel like you
Speaker 1: couldn't be in a relationship because you were just too busy.
Speaker 1: I think a relationship needs time to like grow, and
Speaker 1: to make it grow, you need to be there and
Speaker 1: I just was not there at all. You guys still friends? Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: she's in my friendship group like all my school friends.
Speaker 1: We're like it quite the hell is a friendship friendship group?
Speaker 1: Circle of trust? Yeah No, it's like all the all
Speaker 1: the people I grew up with. We're just all. We
Speaker 1: go to the same parties, chat check, we have a
Speaker 1: we have a WhatsApp. We group were group trapp on
Speaker 1: that and send weird pictures to each other and stuff.
Speaker 1: You say, I'm very interesting. You said you want to
Speaker 1: go back to your hometown and live and you know
Speaker 1: it's different in like hip hop and hip hop, a
Speaker 1: lot of people don't want to live in their hometown
Speaker 1: because you know, people grow jealous, they grow envious, and
Speaker 1: sometimes it's not safe. That can still happen like it's not.
Speaker 1: It's not just in the hip hop world. The amount
Speaker 1: of like, the amount of similarities I've I've found just
Speaker 1: in terms of like people expecting things like you know,
Speaker 1: I watched I watched that that thirty for thirty documentary
Speaker 1: on NFL players a million, Yeah, and it's it's it's
Speaker 1: the same sort of you get people coming up to
Speaker 1: you and you know, I saying, here's a business plan,
Speaker 1: or can you pay this? Or my tax bills a
Speaker 1: bit hi this month or just like. But I think
Speaker 1: I think I think in in life, um, not just
Speaker 1: in hip hop. I just think in life it's it's
Speaker 1: good to be it's good to be generous. Um. But
Speaker 1: I don't think it's as intense as that. Since it's
Speaker 1: so good to be generous, Oh shucks, don't you give it? No,
Speaker 1: don't don't take his money? You can? Are you crazy?
Speaker 1: Thank you, mister Shearing. I will bless you for the

Speaker 1: Heart Festival. Yeah, I was with Kaiser, That's the only
Speaker 1: one I've come to. Yeah, I was. I was there
Speaker 1: that day and you were just kind of working around
Speaker 1: by yourself. Is it is it harder now though, because
Speaker 1: don't you feel like you have to have security? Because
Speaker 1: it does feel like I just sift rush you right now.
Speaker 1: I just got a security guard. I didn't have one
Speaker 1: for like four years. There's too many people out there.
Speaker 1: We went to we went to Manila and it was
Speaker 1: like I've never experienced anything like that. It was pure mentalness.
Speaker 1: Um yeah, so it's the word mental mentalness. Yeah. Just well,
Speaker 1: the thing is Manila was like first you'd get like
Speaker 1: all the fans that come over and rush you. But
Speaker 1: then you get all the people that want to know
Speaker 1: what's going on, and then then they come and rush,
Speaker 1: and then there's the others that just want to see
Speaker 1: what's going on with the what's going on, And it
Speaker 1: was just it was just a lot. So I got
Speaker 1: I got a security guard and life. Life is easier.
Speaker 1: Life is easier. I can leave clubs um and I'll
Speaker 1: take it a million one pictures. Well, I still do that.
Speaker 1: But what kind of instructions did you give your security like,
Speaker 1: you know, because you don't want them to be too
Speaker 1: much of a jerk shooper. But at the same time,
Speaker 1: it's difficult because it's I don't really give him any instruction,
Speaker 1: to be honest, I just he just he loves being
Speaker 1: nasty and I and I like being nice. So it's
Speaker 1: kind of see, you know, you meet in the middle
Speaker 1: and it's feel bad sometime, like he pushes somebody too hard,
Speaker 1: you like, he doesn't do that, he'd he'd get fired
Speaker 1: if he did that. Yeah, you can't. You can't be
Speaker 1: a violent person. Yeah, although actually am I think it
Speaker 1: was a TMZ dude started on him and said like
Speaker 1: it was like, oh fuck you up, bro, And keV
Speaker 1: used to be like back in the day, quite a
Speaker 1: dangerous dude. And yeah, he wasn't having it. It's good up, no,
Speaker 1: he laughed. But um yeah, yeah, I think I think
Speaker 1: his job is to not get into anything. That that's
Speaker 1: the whole thing with the security you don't like. It
Speaker 1: isn't like a muscle thing. It's just a prevention thing.
Speaker 1: But yeah, we don't want to meet him. He's out
Speaker 1: there outside the true You raise forty thousand dollars that
Speaker 1: are showing bristel for sex screet workers. That was a
Speaker 1: while ago. Yeah, I did. I did. It was you know,
Speaker 1: my my my first single was written about a I'm
Speaker 1: homeless woman that I met when I was working in
Speaker 1: a shelter and I you had sex word? No, I
Speaker 1: just I tried to, um know, it's a song. It's
Speaker 1: a song called Deep the eighteen, which is about which
Speaker 1: is about her. And because that song gave me a career,
Speaker 1: I tried to do as much as I can to
Speaker 1: give back to that sort of community. But this is
Speaker 1: a big different between meeting somebody in a homeless shelter
Speaker 1: in a sex screed worker, like a homeless person. Just
Speaker 1: was she a sex screed worker? Uh? I mean, I
Speaker 1: don't really know. I didn't really ask. Um, I guess
Speaker 1: assumptions were made, but yeah, I don't know. No, it
Speaker 1: was it was it was. It was involved with there's
Speaker 1: a charity in Anglical crisis, another one called Shelter, and
Speaker 1: it was involved with that, with that whole thing, and
Speaker 1: they were all kind of under the same same thing. Oh,
Speaker 1: somebody has to stand up a price to tools. I
Speaker 1: don't you know what, what's the problem. Why don't you
Speaker 1: give him a hundred hours he just gave you. Nope,
Speaker 1: you can't. You can't keep that. I know he's I'm
Speaker 1: gonna give it to my daughter. He's hating. Don't worry.
Speaker 1: What does she does she like? What does what she's like? Um,
Speaker 1: she wasn't the door. It explore she's kind of offt
Speaker 1: that she's into like the I Carlie now and stuff
Speaker 1: like that. It seems like you're when to maybe have
Speaker 1: kids soon. Uh, I don't know. I don't know. I
Speaker 1: think you're using condoms and everything. Yeah, I think it
Speaker 1: needs somebody time for condoms when you're in your position,
Speaker 1: especially when he's in his position. You know, I don't
Speaker 1: want to end up with like sixteen kids from different
Speaker 1: mothers make a great one. I want one family. It
Speaker 1: would make a really good reality show. Actually, that would
Speaker 1: be that would be interesting. Jesus, can you imagine I
Speaker 1: probably have to do a reality show because I wouldn't.
Speaker 1: I will all the child spool would go off and yeah,
Speaker 1: and you wrap two like you know a guy. It's
Speaker 1: like it's like two songs on your album when you're
Speaker 1: actually spitting. Can we hear something you wrap old school though?
Speaker 1: Old school something? Can we hear something? Yeah? I feel
Speaker 1: like it's a hit, but I'm not. I'm not really
Speaker 1: a rapper. Something I don't really know. Charlomagne had a
Speaker 1: rap name. His name was Dizzy Dizzy Van Winkles in
Speaker 1: me Slam King Kong and pick up free Trains. I
Speaker 1: bet you could be there. I don't ever want to
Speaker 1: be perfect because I'm a singer that you never want
Speaker 1: to see shirt less, and I accept the fact that
Speaker 1: someone's got a win worse dressed. I'm taking my first
Speaker 1: steps into the scene, keeping me focused. I'm putting on
Speaker 1: a brave face like Timothy Dalton considering the name change,
Speaker 1: thinking it was hopeless. I'm rhyming over recordings, avoiding tradition
Speaker 1: because every day some lyrics and a melody could be written.
Speaker 1: Absent can make your heartbreak, but drinking absent can change
Speaker 1: your mind state vividly. I need to let my liver be.
Speaker 1: I'll say it again, I'm living life on the edge
Speaker 1: with a cold, closed handful of friends. It's good advice.
Speaker 1: And the man who took his life in a row
Speaker 1: with me and I hope to see him blowing up
Speaker 1: globally because that's how it's supposed to be, screaming up vocally.
Speaker 1: It might seem totally impossible achieving live streams, but I
Speaker 1: just write schemes. I'm never having a stylus giving me
Speaker 1: tight jeans, Madison Square gardeners where I might be, But
Speaker 1: more likely you'll find me in the backroom of a
Speaker 1: dive bar, my mates having a point with McDade, discussing
Speaker 1: records we made and every single second, no one that
Speaker 1: will never betray the way it will raise. Remember in
Speaker 1: our background, sat down, that's how we plan it out.
Speaker 1: It's time to take it back now. I'm gonna tell
Speaker 1: you how you know he's a rapper because rappers bit written.
Speaker 1: Yeah that on your album sir. I'm not going to
Speaker 1: freestyle on this show. Imagine I heard that on your
Speaker 1: albums in that same song you wrapped about being in
Speaker 1: a movie star or something like that. Maybe maybe I
Speaker 1: don't I don't recall. Yeah, maybe no. I just you know,
Speaker 1: you know, I I like I like saying a lot
Speaker 1: of things, and I really like rap music, and I
Speaker 1: feel like there's no point in doing a rap something
Speaker 1: unless you used to do it properly. Um. So I've
Speaker 1: only done three because they take around the year to write,
Speaker 1: because I'll write like one bar a month just to
Speaker 1: make sure it's it's it's it's a bit more melodic
Speaker 1: than that. You know, that sounded like a spoken word
Speaker 1: thing by ork an Englishman, but it sounds all right.
Speaker 1: Every Friday we do our Friday songs and we're not
Speaker 1: asking you because you're wait, but we're asking you because
Speaker 1: you you're the only pop singers came up here. And

Speaker 1: better singer than at least for these two songs. We
Speaker 1: should carry on asking all good questions. I thought. I
Speaker 1: thought this industry is going to be more difficult. I agree. No,
Speaker 1: I want to talk to you about your eyes because
Speaker 1: you said I looked. You said you couldn't hardly read. Yeah,
Speaker 1: And when I first saw you, I thought something was
Speaker 1: actually wrong with your eyes really like they looked like
Speaker 1: they were too far apart. I got. I got a
Speaker 1: lazy eye. I got lazy. I had a birthmark on
Speaker 1: my eye. Um that was turning into glau coma, which
Speaker 1: meant I would have gone blind. Um story, and I
Speaker 1: got it, lays it off, which gave me a stutter
Speaker 1: for a while, and also a lazy eye. Got an
Speaker 1: eye that goes that way? Really yeah, No, this was
Speaker 1: when I was like to, oh, yeah, but my eye
Speaker 1: still goes off that way. That scares me sometimes. That's whatever.
Speaker 1: You know, I'm perfectly imperfect. You said on your album,
Speaker 1: you said we are what Guard made us. We are. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and thankfully like the way I look at it. Because
Speaker 1: I was a weird kid and I wasn't. I wasn't
Speaker 1: like I had big blue glasses and I was odd.
Speaker 1: But I think God looked down at some point and
Speaker 1: said you need some help getting laid. Here is a
Speaker 1: guitar going forward to my son, We got you into
Speaker 1: hip paps almost because you love hip hop music. Do
Speaker 1: you know what funny story, My uncle Jim, who we
Speaker 1: call Jim Shady Jim, shurned up at my house when
Speaker 1: I was nine and started going my life's like kind
Speaker 1: of what my wife's like and I didn't really know
Speaker 1: what he was going on about. And he told my
Speaker 1: dad that the Marshall Mathers LP was the next Bob Dylan.
Speaker 1: He said that Eminem was the next Bob Dylan and
Speaker 1: you should buy it for so my dad bought me
Speaker 1: Marshal Mada Zelpi at nine. He didn't really know what
Speaker 1: was on it. Um and that that kind that kind
Speaker 1: of opened the gateway because through through that you discovered
Speaker 1: Dre and then you discovered two Pack and Biggie and
Speaker 1: Big Part and then they just kind of who happens
Speaker 1: that big, big, big, big pun one thing you said,
Speaker 1: that's interesting that you said, how you know God blessed
Speaker 1: you with the ability to play guitar. And I always
Speaker 1: say that because Biggie had a line um black and ugly.
Speaker 1: As ever, however, as long as you gotta however, you
Speaker 1: can always prosper. Yeah, well I think I justly he
Speaker 1: might have the Biggie line. And I said when Biggie said, however,
Speaker 1: he also said you were so fine and suck your
Speaker 1: daddy dick. He did say that say that actually came
Speaker 1: from a Richard Pryor stand up special. Yes, I love
Speaker 1: that line. I don't need Biggie can get away with that.
Speaker 1: That's had some of the most pause worthy lyrics that
Speaker 1: when it comes to sex, love to thriller and Biggie
Speaker 1: squeeze it. Make this. I got the pack up in
Speaker 1: the back of the pack five. You know Jame car
Speaker 1: spiff again swift with the librical gift that hit him
Speaker 1: with my dick and ship go here we go. I'm
Speaker 1: the Domino. I got the funk flow to make your
Speaker 1: draws drop slow, so recognize the dick size and what
Speaker 1: I mean around and hit you with the hanness grip.
Speaker 1: Don't remember me, but you don't forget to see ship.
Speaker 1: Jesus my way deep throat on route. So when the
Speaker 1: moon rises, I'm coming in her eyes. Isn't just the
Speaker 1: wild players play? Leave it up to me. I get
Speaker 1: a fuck told day, drunk, old day, counting, stuck in cheese,
Speaker 1: fucking bitches to the assholes. That's on big booty hose
Speaker 1: Yeah second the second, Yeah big. He also said his
Speaker 1: man fuck little kids in the ass and throws them
Speaker 1: over a bridge. Yeah he did. You know, my man
Speaker 1: got a kid naps kids, fuck them in the ass,
Speaker 1: both with the bridge. Yeah he did say that too.
Speaker 1: Jesus Christ's Who's your favorite rapper of all time? Uh?
Speaker 1: The first two Eminem albums two of my favorite albums
Speaker 1: of all time. Rapper, it just changes day by day. Um.
Speaker 1: I only just I discovered Big Pun late, probably about
Speaker 1: four years ago, five years ago actually, Um. I was
Speaker 1: on tour in England with a rapper who had um
Speaker 1: the ninety seven twins and um, just from from that
Speaker 1: he used to wrap over it and yeah, and then
Speaker 1: he played me you know you ain't a killer, you're
Speaker 1: just learning how the world from New York to kill
Speaker 1: that one. Um, So you learned from the Deep Cup joint. Yeah,
Speaker 1: the Deep cover him. Yeah, it was just the first
Speaker 1: eight bars of that song is just what Yeah. But um,
Speaker 1: have you met fair Joel? No, never met Fat Joe.
Speaker 1: I met him all Technique the other day. That was
Speaker 1: that was that. That was cool. He's a really nice guy.
Speaker 1: I was a big fan of him when I was young.
Speaker 1: What about Eminem? I had the opportunity I made. I
Speaker 1: made my album with Rick Rick Rubin, and Rick was
Speaker 1: in New York when I was in New York, and
Speaker 1: he said, I'm doing SNL with Eminem, do you want
Speaker 1: to come down? So I went down. He said, you
Speaker 1: want to meet him? And I said, would he know
Speaker 1: who I am? And he said, unless you're an underground
Speaker 1: rapping from Detroit, he wouldn't. So I said, okay, I'll wait, because, um,
Speaker 1: I waited. I waited to meet jay Z. I had
Speaker 1: a few opportunities to meet him, and I don't want
Speaker 1: to be the dude that just gets a picture and
Speaker 1: then that that's it. And I waited to meet jay
Speaker 1: Z and it was it was worth it because I
Speaker 1: got to go for dinner and actually have a proper
Speaker 1: conversation with him. And I want to do that with eminem.
Speaker 1: I just I don't want to like foto. I want
Speaker 1: to actually have a conversation. Now, what do you think
Speaker 1: about people who say that a white guy like yourself
Speaker 1: and Sam Smith are stealing black people sell I think
Speaker 1: we're embracing it. I think I think, um, it's it's
Speaker 1: something that should be celebrated. I never um, I never
Speaker 1: don't give credit where it's due, you know, I'm I'm
Speaker 1: very open of who influences me, what albums I'm listening to.
Speaker 1: I take people on tour. I don't think it's for
Speaker 1: me anyway. And Sam, I don't think it's necessarily a
Speaker 1: theft thing. I think it's a celebration of music, and
Speaker 1: I think if you do it correctly and respectfully, um
Speaker 1: one can really knock it, you know. I think you know,
Speaker 1: timber Lake's done a very good job of really embracing
Speaker 1: it and really kind of um yeah, it was kind
Speaker 1: of hypocritical. Or when you hear black singer say you
Speaker 1: shouldn't do this kind of music because you're away, I've
Speaker 1: never heard anyone say that for me to me. Um.
Speaker 1: I got nominated for Music of Black Origin Awards in
Speaker 1: England and actually three years in a row, and didn't
Speaker 1: turn up for that very reason because I feel like
Speaker 1: it should go to someone a bit more deserving than me.
Speaker 1: But um yeah, other than other than awards, I haven't
Speaker 1: had anyone say anything like that. We appreciate you joining
Speaker 1: us a lot of fun and anytime you're in town,
Speaker 1: you come on through. You ain't even got a call,
Speaker 1: you ain't got a nactors come with turn up. Let's
Speaker 1: come turn up. Have you seen him? He's got so thin?
Speaker 1: I like it, Gastric Band. I was watching Entourage the
Speaker 1: other day. I didn't because I only know big Boy
Speaker 1: from being skinny skinny boy. Yeah. Yeah, and I didn't
Speaker 1: realize he was big before. That's amazing. Big boy was big.
Speaker 1: I'm not I'm not. I'm not American. I'm not American.
Speaker 1: So we don't really we have two radios, were up
Speaker 1: three three radio stations in England and then one on
Speaker 1: He's on Capital one. Yeah it was no, he was
Speaker 1: on Radio one. I think he's think he's moved over. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and then there's Radio one Capital and then the Battle
Speaker 1: Network and yeah, they which I just don't I haven't
Speaker 1: really paid much. You'll probably the only show I actually
Speaker 1: played attention. I shouldn't say that politically, but like I
Speaker 1: do check every time there's a new video up, or
Speaker 1: do check and watch the interviews, because I find like
Speaker 1: your interviews are quite challenging. They're not like you haven't
Speaker 1: you haven't got a list of questions in front of
Speaker 1: you and you're just going through the motions. It's like
Speaker 1: you really pushed people's buttons. Well you said this was
Speaker 1: easy for you, thought it is going to be worse. Yeah, well,
Speaker 1: Howard Stern, Howard Stern, I was shitting it for and
Speaker 1: that that that that was a lot easier than I expected.
Speaker 1: But I came in here knowing that we were going
Speaker 1: to have fun, and yeah, knowing that you'd ask about
Speaker 1: eating the box. Yeah, you actually brought that. That's the
Speaker 1: first question a quottion. You talked about eating as we
Speaker 1: talked about colorism. Goon squads admit that. Yes, yeah, ye
Speaker 1: admitted that you make assholes bleed. Oh I did not.
Speaker 1: Tims have always been quite good to me. They yeah,
Speaker 1: they haven't. Really. There's one girl that really doesn't like
Speaker 1: me in the office. She's she's really anti No, I
Speaker 1: don't know. I got to talk to Van and Harvey
Speaker 1: about that. There are people actually I've never met them,
Speaker 1: but they're Yeah, they're always They're always nice to me.
Speaker 1: I think until I fuck up, they're going to be
Speaker 1: nice to me. When you suck up the thing about
Speaker 1: the roomal meal in the blogs, if you don't give
Speaker 1: them nothing, they don't have anything to feed off, right. Yeah.
Speaker 1: But I think I think it's healthy just to be
Speaker 1: human and live. I think I think the moment you
Speaker 1: start hiding stuff is when you get caught, the moment
Speaker 1: you're kind of like, no, I don't do this, and
Speaker 1: then when you call everyone's like, oh no, you actually
Speaker 1: do Um. Yeah, so I think like i've I've always
Speaker 1: been very open with this sort of thing music. You know,
Speaker 1: you do, you have sex, you do drugs, you drink,
Speaker 1: you got and cheated on you. Sound like a regular
Speaker 1: guy to me. Sound like Charlotage's trying to take advantage
Speaker 1: of it. He's giving you four drinks. Listen. I like
Speaker 1: the guy we could tell thank you do do men
Speaker 1: ever hit on you? Do you know what? Actually I went?
Speaker 1: I took It was one of Taylor's dances when we
Speaker 1: were on tour, and it was one of her dancers birthdays,
Speaker 1: and I took him and well, I didn't I didn't
Speaker 1: know I was going to this place, but it ended
Speaker 1: up being quite quite fun and interesting. But it was
Speaker 1: a place in Atlantic Swinging Richards, which is a game.
Speaker 1: So I took and do you know what? We were
Speaker 1: playing in Atlanta the next day and Bob was the
Speaker 1: guest and he said, oh, you got it up to
Speaker 1: anything at Atlanta And I was like, oh, I went
Speaker 1: to Swinging Richards last night. And him and his manager
Speaker 1: were just like another gay thing in the industry. Hey,
Speaker 1: but no, you know I whatever, whatever I bought I bought,
Speaker 1: I bought Ricky the guy, the dancer, I bought him
Speaker 1: a dance. The thing, the thing that I was surprised
Speaker 1: at was all the dudes and there were straight and
Speaker 1: they were just earning a lot of money just to
Speaker 1: have a six pack and just windmill. That's how I
Speaker 1: describe it. Sam Smith's cool man, you know. But you
Speaker 1: know I have I have gay friends, are straight friends.
Speaker 1: I have friends that swing both ways. I just, you know,
Speaker 1: I think I think like humans, humans are fun to
Speaker 1: hang around with. And I don't. I don't, I don't like,
Speaker 1: I don't like, you know, I I have no I
Speaker 1: have no objections to the way that anyone lives their
Speaker 1: life unless it's really negative and bad and then means people.
Speaker 1: But I think I think if you're like, Sam's a
Speaker 1: really fucking cool guy. Um, and I really enjoy his company.
Speaker 1: I have a quote, I'm too dumb to be closed minded. Okay,
Speaker 1: takes a certain level of intelligence to be clothed minded.
Speaker 1: I don't know nothing. Yeah, but if you're closed minded,
Speaker 1: you spend your whole life angry at things. Yeah, And
