Read below a statement he posted on facebook
after receiving this prestigious award
He said: “I’m honoured to be one of the youngest
people awarded with an MBE...
Never in a million years did I ever think I would
receive such an accolade. For me this is about us
- the youth.With so much negativity around us it’s
hard sometimes to stay positive and fight for your
dreams. When I started my YouTube channel I
was working at Topman. I worked there for four
years investing in myself. The world won’t help
you, I learnt that early, you have to help yourself;
you have to invest [in] yourself to better your life.
He credits his mum for believing in him.
“This too, means that we, the youth, actually can
change the world, you just have to be proactive
then the world will notice you when the time is
right. I am over the moon to be honoured for my
contributions to music. Honestly, people, anything
is possible if you stay dedicated. I was forced to
carve my own path, taking an untraditional route,
part of a digital culture rewriting the rules [and]
breaking down barriers.”
