3 monkeys sittin' under a coconut treeDiscussing things as they are set to beSaid one to the othersNow listen you twoThere's a strange rumor that can't be trueThey say man was descended from our noble raceBut the very idea is a big disgraceNo monkey ever deserted his wifeOr her baby to ruin their lives.

I can remember the first time I ever recorded my vocals on to a beat. Cat Coore from Third World - a legendary Jamaican band - had a little demo set up at his house. I'm very good friends with his eldest son, Shiah, who plays with me now. So we were rhyming over a track by the dancehall artist Peter Metro. I've still got it somewhere.

I record all night and sleep all day. It started because you're excited about the music and you want to stay up longer, but over 15 years, it's become a habit. In my circle, I think a lot of musicians operate like this. When the place is quiet, you're more creative. I have plenty of people I can call at 4 A.M. and know they'll be up.
