“I don't get star struck by anyone. Everyone is a human being.”

“Drake, that's my brother right there. Big Drizzy. That's my guy there - he shows me a lot of love.”

“It doesn't matter where I am, what I do, whether I'm in the sauna, whether I'm on the beach, whether I'm with my girl at the spa - man's never hot. It's that simple.”

“Man can be in Sahara desert - but I'm still going to wear the jacket.”

“The supporters choose what they like, and they chose that they like Big Shaq 'Mans Not Hot.'”

“I've always produced content that is PG - free from profanities and swearing - because I know I have a bunch of young kids who watch it. I meet mums all the time, and they're always very grateful because they know their child is watching and I'm not going to be influencing them negatively. Big up the mums, man.”

“I was like the funny guy in sixth form. When we used to do showcases, I'd host them, and I would do, like, little comedy segments.”

“When I'm playing any of my characters, I totally go into the realm of the character. That's when I'm able to come up with the most creative stuff, and I believe that's what connects with the audience.”

“I'm a creative comedic entertainer who enjoys bringing good content to the world. I'm not Big Shaq - Shaq is his own person.”

“Make sure that when you're going out, you wear socks, because I've been seeing some people coming out with no socks and that. You know, your toes looking like Cheetos. We don't need all of that.”

“Noel Gallagher - he's a legend.”

“The rap community know that I'm doing very well. They're embracing me... They like the flavour.”

“I don't like blood - I was trying to study to be a doctor, but I don't like blood.”

“I never, ever thought Jeremy Corbyn would be quoting me!”

“My faith has always supported me in my ventures, so boom.”

“In all my content I don't really swear or use profanity, because I believe comedy can just be pure.”

“Big Shaq stems from my YouTube series 'Somewhere in London.' I just wanted to create something that was multi-character and multi-dimensional.”

“You always want to make sure that your work can touch as many people as possible. Whether it's young guys, young girls, you never know where it's going.”

“I'm very observational in my comedy and what I create with the characters that I'm blessed to play. I don't believe comedy needs to be offensive, and I don't believe it needs to be a mockery of anything.”

“I'm a multifaceted entertainer.”
