Jamal Edwards the founder of SBTV started with his career as a hobby, at the age of 16 he got a camera as a birthday present.
He uploaded a video of him filming foxes in his garden and he realized that he got 1000 videos on youtube and he was surprised therefore he decided to start to video other things.
Jamal edwards was a fan of grime music and he realized that you wouldn't really see any grime music videos on mainstream TV channels therefore artists makes their own videos and upload it on to youtube. Due to his interest to grime music, he decided to film london rappers freesyling on streets, backstage of gigs and back seats of cars. And he uploads the videos on to youtube, but he didn't want to restrict filming to grime scene.
He started to film big name pop artists like Ellie Goulding, Nicki Minaj, Bruno Mars and even justin bieber.
His attitude appears to be paying off. he has made money from advertising, he has 50000 subscribers and a total of 39 million videos and he got signed to Sony RCA.
