Simeon Ferguson (AKA Simbad Fresh)

I'm real, I'm Sim, I'm bad, I'm fresh!

Simeon Ferguson, AKA Simbad Fresh, is a self-confessed 'music head'. He's been passionate about making music since he got his first set of decks. Using his life experience as inspiration, Simeon knows you have to keep it real in the music business...

Simeon Ferguson is a man with a musical mission. With help from the Prince's Trust he has just set up a business to inspire other young people by running workshops and teaching them how to make their own music. He also wants to make it big as a rapper and has written and recorded many of his own tracks.

He's serious about making the most of his musical talent - but life hasn't always been easy for Simeon. Despite his passion for music, he got into trouble in his teens and found family life getting cramped when his sister had a baby.

He now has a place at the Cambridge Youth Foyer, and is focused on making a future for himself.

Watch his video to find out what inspired him to turn his life around.
