just seen this on the rwd forum and its a real shame - I can get why he can't be bothered anymore but its still

still i don't necessarily believe it - reckon he'll got bored and make a comeback at some point

When I saw this i was a bit upset cos he's probably my favourite grime mc, but after reading the interview I think it's a good thing that he's made the decision to retire because he's not enjoying his work

Sets him up for a cross-over into dubstep production.

He'll be back.

I really hope so, but I completely understand where he's coming from, especially after having made a similar decision recently myself. And at least he's getting out at the top of the game - he hasn't waited until he's releasing nothing but waste tunes just to make money and everyone's sick of him but he refuses to go.

This is really good to read though:

I’ll still produce, if someone wants beats, but that’s it

I wonder how many swag MCs are going to start sending for him now though.

I think it's meant to be satirical. I don't actually approve of the bombing of mosques

Wow, you would have thought the asterisk + "Join the fucking army" would have tipped the fella off

I totally gutted myself at it, I like the way it's made in paint as well!
