It's time to stop dreaming and start living.

This is the message from Dekay, out of North West London.

This is the voice of the estates.
This is the voice of kids under pressure.
This is the voice of kids holding a future on prescription drugs.
This is the voice of retaliation.

And this is a message of hope for anyone who has been homeless and vulnerable and hopeless ...

Dekay has stood in the face of the citralopram, zopiclone, diothepin and said NO!

...She has put all her energy into her music and having released two mixtapes while homeless, she has just released her first solo album called Phoenix Down and in November 2009 hit us with another mixtape: Broken Lifts.
