Real life of N-Dubz’ Fazer including dating Tulisa, keeping a low profile and karate classes with Dappy

Fazer is probably the N-Dubz member people know the least about. He keeps a fairly low profile, and prefers not to live his life in the spotlight as much as Dappy and Tulisa. In spite of this, he was the driving force behind the overall success of N-Dubz.

Fazer is the son of an English father and Jamaican mother, and was brought up in Camden Town, London. His real name is Richard Rawson. Fazer first met Dappy when they started attending the same karate class, becoming best friends at school.

They attended Haverstock School with third member Tulisa Contostavlos (Dappy's cousin) attending the school for a while as well. It was at school that the trio became close friends and formed N-Dubz.
