The Sweeney (2012)

Born Ben Paul Ballance Drew, Drew was born into a world where he was bought up by music and film, inspiring his art now. Growing up in the Circle Estate, Forest Gate, he meet Ed Skerin at a youth club who introduced him into rap. He has since released three studio albums, various mix-tapes, acted in several films, and recently directed his debut film, ill manors. Despite all this, Drew says more than anything, he is a story teller.

Quotes
[on his directorial debut Ill Manors (2012)] A lot of people outside this environment don't believe it exists. So in the film, rather than glamorize it, I'm trying to say to people this is the true, dark reality. This is what happens. It's not cool. No drug dealer really has the last laugh.
