The father-of-three, who has daughters Lucy (6), Sophie (5) and Bethany (1), said: “I do rap about various things such as the political state of this country but rapping about my religion is very important to me.

“I want my music to make an impact on young people and to make them realise that the things most rappers glorify such as drugs and violence is not a great life.

“I want to show them they can enjoy rap music that has a positive message.”
