So, I stepped outside music for a while and I'm pleased to be back. It was these two guys here who dragged me back - to be fair they didn't drag me, they said "do you wanna do it?" and I said "YESSS!"

You all keep yourselves fit (cue giggles from the boys), what tracks get you motivated to workout?

Jay Harvey: Any UK Garage can get you hyped to the gym! There's lots of House and stuff as well, sometimes I'll listen to some Trap / Hip Hop /whatever's playing. If it's got energy then it's going to help motivate you.

Oggie: 90s RnB, UK Garage music, a bit of Hip Hop...

Ultra: 90s RnB - that'll be the slowest bench press up!

Oggie: Not the slow jams, the big ones.

Jay Harvey: I ain't gonna lie, I've trained with Boys 2 Men in my headphones before.

Ultra: That's why Jay's massive.

Oggie: The up-tempo ones, that's the fun stuff.

How important is it that UK3 are involved in charity work?

Ultra: Very important. It's always good to help out a cause and people who are less fortunate or need help. I'm always up for charity work.

Oggie: It's extremely important, we're involved with a few charitable things at the moment. We're involved with Don't Suffer In Silence and doing a gala on the 2nd of June. Mental health is a really big deal to all of us. We're recording a charity record for another artist that's coming out soon. So, for us, anything we can do to help. There's no point in having a platform if you're not going to use it to actually help people.

Jay Harvey: There's a lot of things close to my heart, so it feels nice to give back to many different
