00:00 Pretty much we're here with Buxom Alone, we just had to invite people to Sheffield, sort of welcome to the party.
00:04 What's the sort of scene you've seen today inside the Winter Gardens?
00:06 Flipping it, talented kids, a lot of good energy, a lot of love, so it's good to be involved you know.
00:14 Right, we've got a lot of youth programmes here today, people have put on the stage for the first time essentially, I think people have done a really good job.
00:19 Have you seen any talent today?
00:21 I have, primary school kids there was good, to be honest, everybody.
00:26 And by the way it takes courage to stand up and perform in front of people, so it was good.
00:33 What would you say to them if you could as a personal congratulations?
00:35 By the way I did, I made sure I told them, well done.
00:39 Well done boss.
00:40 For getting up there and doing your best.
00:42 Right, we've got the actual Mobile Awards tonight, I don't know if you've spent much time in Sheffield before?
00:47 Yeah, I've done shows here, I'm from the North so this is up the road for me.
00:53 Good to have the party here, how much is it to see it celebrated here? I don't know what kind of welcoming you can offer people.
00:59 It's a big deal man, yeah the Mobo's, north of the lake, I'm excited, it's a big deal.
01:10 Have you been to the Mobo's before? What sort of night are we in for?
01:14 There's a lot of excitement around the Mobo's, people take it serious, I've been watching it since I was a little kid, aspiring to be involved.
01:25 So there's a lot going on, you've got kids at home watching it and believing one day maybe they can be in that situation.
01:33 And actually they can.
01:35 What advice can you give to a city to make the most of these opportunities?
01:39 We've had the Mobo's here, it's our first time here, how can we make the most of that kind of opportunity in the future?
01:43 Just hard work, that's all we can all do in it, work hard and capitalize on these opportunities.
