Jimmy pointed out that Daniel is a ‘big rap fan’ to which the actor replied: ‘I am a big rap fan. It always surprises a lot of me about me.
'Initially, I got into Eminem and I think I was the first kid in my class to learn all the words of Real Slim Shady. And I’m a fan of Plan B who’s a rapped in England.'
He continued: ‘‘I’ve always had an obsession with memorising complicated lyrically, intricate and fast songs I guess. It’s a disease.’
