The Streets, or Mike Skinner to his mum, burst onto the UK music scene in 2002. Described as the voice of his generation, the ground-breaking mix of beats and rhymes of 'Original Pirate Material' led to a Mercury Music Prize Nomination, and both critical and commercial acclaim.

That was just the beginning of the rollercoaster that would run through the modern-day opus of 'A Grand Don't Come For Free', which spawned the UK No.1 'Dry Your Eyes', as well as a host of top ten singles, and went multi-platinum around the world.
