Why The Rap Game UK for you?

It’s an opportunity. It's more than an opportunity actually. It is game time. Playtime over for real. Yeah, it's, it's go time.

Where are you from?

I'm from East London. Hackney, grown up in Dalston.

What’s your style of music?

I'm very versatile. But I'm very passionate, in everything I do, so hopefully you see my passion. Not hopefully - you will see my passion for everything. People are like, wow, when they see me do drill. But why can’t females do drill? If a guy can do it, I can do it.

What does music mean to you?

There's no words it's just emotions, as in, I couldn't explain it. It’s a getaway, it’s a passion. It’s a dream, it is reality.

Who are you favourite rappers?

My favourite rappers are Skrapz, old school Teflon, Hus... the old school. My influences are people like Missy Elliot, Lil Kim - taking it back! Way back. That type of sound. You hear the song once, you may not know the words but something in the song sticks in you. Those are my influences.

Why should the other artists be worried about you?

The music does the talking. I light up every room that I walk in. Not everyone can say the same thing. I’m a spark when I walk!
