It's about slowly becoming famous in the music industry. And once you really get to the top, it will start to weaken you. Everything in your life becomes busy; the interviews, the gigs, contracts to sign, contribute to advertisements, promote your work and so on. You rarely get time to just sit back & relax. And when you start to stress about these things..drugs & alcohol may come in.
Just what happened to Amy Winehouse. She got money & fame, and she used 'em the wrong way UNDER too much pressure. Nobody took care of her.
The major record labels are sick, they're only after money. They treat the musicians like shit.
Jay Kay knows this and wrote this song, it's his personal experience, although the song may not be autobiographical
