There is straps in the ends.
People do get hurt.
Niggas is trapping.
It’s exactly the same as anywhere else.
England is not sweet.
Don't be fooled.
Don't come to London thinking it's sweet and get robbed accidentally.
Like it's not cool bro.
Don't do it.
I was sitting in the studio and Sevaqk came through.
He had this laptop.
He opened it up.
He had like, I don't know man, like 100 beats or some shit.
And then he played the very first beat.
It was this beat.
And everyone was in the room.
I was with like Dave and a couple other artists.
Everyone wanted the beat.
I was like, “No no no. I'm having this beat.”
And then that’s it from there.
Dave wanted the beat but I was like, “No I'm having it.”
He's got enough good beats man.
I want some beats man.
Shout out Mimi man.
That’s the girl that I was seeing.
The reason why I fucked with this girl is cause obviously she was from the hood.
But she didn't have the hood mentality, you know what I'm saying?
So like she was in the ends, but she wasn't one of the “ends people.”
My team, MTP.
My boy D. My boys, Sketch.
Wax.
There's actually a big team.
But you don't always see us all together.
But like we're together, you know what I'm saying.
If my boys don't like her then like, she gone.
You know what I'm saying?
She can't be around me, honestly.
On my white side of the family, my Nan from Wales, like she’s cool with it.
She was all for it, you know what I'm saying?
She was fully supporting the shit.
My Gran from Trinidad, on the other side of the family...
Like, she just wasn't with it.
That's all.
When I told her, “Yeah I'm leaving Uni to do rap.”
She was like, “You're what?”
Every time I showed her my accolades and things I was doing well, she didn't really care.
Like it didn't impress her, you know what I'm saying?
Eventually I just came and showed her one of my booking fees one time.
And I was like, “Look how much I'm getting for a show.”
For her, it was just a realization.
She was like, “Oh okay, I guess he is doing something."
"Even if I don't agree with it, like it's working for him.”
The missions in the rain, boy.
I can't say too much about that cause obviously yeah, feds feds.
But obviously I used to do whatever I was doing to make ends meet.
And I don't have to do that anymore.
To be honest with you, life is like…
It's way better now.
But there's still a couple problems I'm trying to iron out, you know what I'm saying?
It's never perfect.
My life has massively improved cause of music.
The ends is a dangerous place man. I don't know.
To anyone watching...
I don't know if you think England's sweet but it's really not.
It's not sweet.
I linked up with Sevaqk.
I met him outside a show.
Me and Dave were getting into a cab.
He came up to the cab and he was like, “Yo we gotta work.”
Eventually we made it happen.
And then obviously made Mimi.
A “boffin” is a nerd or a geek.
Obviously, look inside my calendar, bookings, books, book nerds.
There you have it, man.
A yattie just means a female.
Literally straight forward like that.
A yatty, female.
A peng ting is like a buff girl, you know what I’m saying?
A good looking girl.
An attractive woman.
It’s not disrespectful or anything.
It’s actually a compliment.
Any girl who's watching, if I take you on a date, you're in a very small category.
Like that's amazing.
You deserve a medal.
I don't go on dates at all.
DSQ is D squared which is like a brand.
It's like a Canadian brand.
I don’t like talk to females and stuff, especially in my hood.
Like girls kinda like screw up their face and instantly wanna be rude to me cause they
think I'm a rapper.
So they think I'm gonna be rude to them, or like disrespectful.
So they're just off rip, like they're rude to me straight away.
It's ridiculous.
So, I'll just walk up and they'll just be like...
Like looking at my outfit and just trying to analyze what I'm doing.
It's ridiculous.
Like they need to just go in a bin or jump in the sea or something.
This is like a fan favorite bar.
This is the one that everyone quotes to me.
So like, “I'm a Royce on the left like my name was Marco.”
It's not that complicated, but it's just a cool bar.
Like Marco Royce, obviously plays for Borussia Dortmund soccer team, football team.
He's fire.
He plays on the left wing, left mid, left mid.
He's a good player.
And obviously a Rolls Royce.
London.
West London is the left side of London.
“I'm a Royce on the left like my name is Marco.”
West London is known for like getting money, you know what I’m saying?
Flashy.
Jigga niggas.
So obviously, everyone…
Not everyone dresses well.
I don’t want to put that much respect on some people’s name.
But people try to dress well.
Other areas, it’s like super beef oriented.
The west is about getting money really.
I don't think I'm big headed.
I'm confident, you know what I'm saying?
You gotta know your value.
You know what I’m saying?
I feel like other rappers are constantly trying to be someone else.
Usually me.
No, for real though I feel like everyone's like trying to be something they're not.
And I'm just...
I'm me man. I'm happy with myself.
