What the label says:

Starting out as a garage MC to make some money while at university in London, Example met aspiring producer Rusher and the duo made a concept album in the Film Department’s audio booth. Mike Skinner (The Streets) later heard him and was in touch before long, signing the extrovert MC to his fledgling label.

Once he signed to Skinner’s label he found himself in Chernobyl shooting the video for his first single ‘What We Made’. Never one to exactly shy away from speaking his mind, the young rapper was given the freedom to develop in Mike Skinner’s ‘shed’ as the great and the good from the UK underground passed through, and the fruits of this ‘anything goes approach’ can be clearly witnessed in the new video for ‘You Cant Rap’. Directed by Henry Schofield, it is a pantomime tale of swashbuckling and damsons in distress, while the track itself single handedly settles the hip-hop hierarchical history of the UK with the simple line: ‘You can’t rap my friend, you’re white and you’re from Fulham.”
