“I grew up part of the MTV generation. I saw Biggie Smalls and Jay-Z on...” — Ashley Walters Quote

“I grew up part of the MTV generation. I saw Biggie Smalls and Jay-Z on TV and I thought: 'Wow, look at these powerful black people.' I wanted that.”

“I have grown up being a father. When my first son was born I was 17. I was a child bringing up a child. I was not capable of understanding what a dad was meant to be.”

“I worked in WH Smiths on Sloane Square and my first boss was a woman called June. My shift was half a day on Saturdays, and nine to six on Sundays. I was in and out of the place and only turned up when I wanted to.”

“I wanna be in a movie, I wanna have a clothing line, I wanna put myself in a position where, when I'm dead and gone, or I can't rap anymore, that's still moving. Tupac and Biggie, they've been dead 10-plus years and people talk about them everyday. I'm gonna try to speak everything into existence. I know the music is my key to get there.”

“Brandy is one of my favorite vocalists. Jay-Z is my favorite emcee outside of Biggie.”

“I listen to a lot of music, and I listen to some rap, and I do like listening to Biggie Smalls.”
