Justin (aka Merlin, his artist name) joined the group Bomb The Bass at the age of 16 and a year later was signed to American label Sire Records (Madonna, Ice-T). With such great success also came something else: Justin ended up in prison for three months. While doing his time, Justin realised something that would change his life completely: he promised himself not to ever end back there again and also to commit to helping other young people facing a similar experience to never go back to prison again and to show them a different path... Through music. Justin has since based his whole life and career on this, working with at-risk youth and ex-offenders, while also continuing to develop his creative talent (collecting many top 10 successes in the UK).
