Mak 10: The DJ Who Built Grime Then Nearly Lost Everything

He built the sound of a genre from pirate radio. Then addiction almost took all of it. Mak 10 — the DJ behind Nasty Crew — on the rise, the fall, and coming up to three years clean. He talks about why "I had to be a bit delusional" to make it, the ADHD he's still waiting 18 months to have diagnosed, what fatherhood taught him about himself, and the night Wiley and Dizzee Rascal stood on the same stage for the first time in 20 years.
