I enjoyed my upbringing, my siblings did, we're polite, we're respectful, but at the end of the day we're young, we like to have fun.

I was like 14 and decided I wanted to be a rapper, so I needed a hip rapper name. I was with one of my friends in class and literally went through a thesaurus. I saw temper and thought, I like this, but it's too much. My friend was like, What about Tinie for tiny, and that was that.

I've seen how much effort has to go into a tour, the performance and also how to look after yourself, not just physically, but mentally too.

Sometimes I would bring some of my music to the school and perform on the playground, and they'd think, There goes Patrick, trying to entertain everyone as usual.

Grime is a particular style of music. You've got electro, funk and garage grime is its darker side. It's constantly evolving.

I'm just a young person trying to fulfil his potential and be the best he can be at what he wants to do... I guess that's why people connect with the music.

I work with a trainer called Ruben Tabares. He's a nutritionist, strength and conditioning coach, and an athlete. So I literally just train like an athlete.

When I was about 14 I remember thinking when it came to proposing to my future girlfriend, I'd make a CD with all her favourite songs and a message that said, Will you marry me? Shows you what a romantic I was. No one listens to CDs any more. It's all about iTunes.
