Summary

Rapper and actor Bugzy Malone talks to Eddie about his tough childhood in Manchester and his journey to stardom.

Stabbed when he was just 11 years old, he got involved in crime as a young teenager. After a short stint in prison he determined to improve his life and turned to boxing where he learned to use discipline and hard work to achieve his dreams in music.

Bugzy tells Eddie about his new album, The Great British Dream, the rumours about him fighting Floyd Mayweather, acting alongside Jason Statham and his growing business involvement in fashion and fragrance.
