- Starting out aged 15 with a simple video camera that his parents gave him pre smartphone era, Jamal Edwards redefined the grass roots music scene in a new digital age with his breakthrough SBTV channel on RUclips.
Through SBTV he helped break some of today's biggest artists, including Ed Sheeran, Jessie J, Rita Ora and Amelie Sandé.
In 2015 Jamal was awarded an MBE for his services to music and business.
He was one of the most recognised and connected names in the music business and a pioneer of a new way of surfacing and celebrating new talent in the RUclips age, taking them viral.
Jamal was also a huge contributor to his community, and to British society, with his grass roots organisation Delve, designed to help youth find opportunities and revitalise the youth centres and other physical spaces that help them get there.
Watch and listen to the story from the man himself, complete with a special guest appearance!!!!
Jamal tragically passed away in February 2022. I've left this interview here as a tribute to his legacy and kindness, and so you can share the moments he generously shared with me one night in Soho.

To see the accomplishments this man made is to honor him…..Ed Sheeran to this day cries about him…what a gifted Angel. Sometimes people don’t realize how loved they are….RIP Jamal❤️
As a young Director I find myself coming back to revisit this video every month. What an incredible individual - huge inspiration.
That's great to hear, glad you are getting value from it.
