Iyare's answers:

Where were you born?
Gooner country, the centre of the universe, north London.

What was your favourite hobby and/or present as a kid?
Fave hobby was singing, dancing and playing music. The present that sticks out was a bright red mountain bike I copped one Christmas. My brother and our best mate got bikes too and we rode around for the whole of Christmas Day.

How you got into being a DJ/presenter?
By accident really, I was asked to do some entertainment news for a radio show and got the taste for it. I met Jason after that and the opportunity to do student radio came up so we jumped at it. Within in a year we were on 1Xtra.

Your biggest influence?
My mum.

Key tune that inspired you?
A Tribe Called Quest: Electric Relaxation.
This is a record I love. It’s a classic with a very clever sample, great verses and a heavy hook. Hip hop perfection. I wrote an essay on it that got me some very needed marks at uni so I’ll always have a place in my heart for it.

Favourite lyric?
"Dem belly full, but we hungry, a hungry man is an angry man," Bob Marley. That line summed up me trying to get into the music industry. I wanted it so bad it p****d me off.

Your dream gig or collaboration?
Jimi Hendrix and Bob Marley doing an unplugged album together.

Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.

If I only had one day I’d do really selfish things like make DJs tax exempt and declare myself Baron Iyare, Lord of the Independent Republic of Finsbury Park.

You get one free slap on somebody to tell them to sort it out. Who would get it and why?
My first girlfriend cos she gave me a ring then took it back when we broke up. That’s just wrong.
