Once he's got the rhythm right, he'll work out the lyrics and then call up Baudo - who's produced CDs for top hip-hop names on both sides of the Atlantic - to flesh things out. Most of Raymzter's friends and the people he works with are from ethnic minorities or of mixed race, but Raymzter says he feels as much Dutch as Moroccan: "Maybe it's just that most of the people involved in rap music are from ethnic minorities."

MERCURY You may not be into heavy-metal music, but if you are a fish eater, heavy metals are inside you.
