This week's guest needs no lengthy intro. We certainly had more than '21 seconds' for this interview. British rapper MC Harvey is a legend in the UK's music and entertainment scene, both in the past and present. From recording No.1 songs with So Solid Crew to delving into reality TV and currently dedicating a significant amount of time to his ambassadorship and charity work, Harvey has covered more ground than my morning jog. Welcome, Harvey!

MC Harvey, born in London on May 1, 1979, rose to fame as a pivotal figure in the British entertainment scene, notably through So Solid Crew's chart-topping hits like 'Oh No (Sentimental Things)' and '21 Seconds,' which earned the group accolades at the 2002 BRIT Awards and the MOBOs.
