Personal life
In 2012, Morrisson's brother Stephen Morrisson was arrested and charged with burglary, drug offences and failing to surrender to police bail.[5] He was stabbed to death in June 2020.[6]
In November 2020, Morrisson was involved in a fight between Tion Wayne and Headie One on an Emirates flight, in which he tried to break up the altercation.[7]
Morrison and fellow rapper Nines got into disagreement which started when Nines taunted Morrison for allegedly copying his trend of wearing a pendant depicting the logo of Arsenal Football Club, who is Nines' favourite team. Morrisson, via Snapchat, then publicly replied that he had gone to Church Road where Nines lived at the time and taught Nines 'game', and that he had also taught Nines to grow and sell cannabis to customers illegally. [8]
Morrison is a supporter of the Professional Football Team West Ham F.C.
