Most notably Switch has worked extensively with fellow British artist M.I.A. co-producing tracks on her albums Arular, Kala, and Matangi. For the latter, he travelled to work with M.I.A. in A. R. Rahman's Panchathan Record Inn and AM Studios and other locations such as Kodambakkam, Chennai and Trinidad and Tobago. He says 'When you go somewhere like India, and especially Jamaica, it puts you in a different train of thought, outside your usual working conditions. They use music as their voice; they use it for politics, for religion. So, I think for people that are struggling, they can use it to vent frustrations, or to celebrate'.[1]
In 2009 Switch collaborated with fellow producer Diplo (whom he met through artist M.I.A.) to create the album Thunderbird download older versions. Guns Don't Kill People.. Lazers Do under the name Major Lazer.
Switch is the founder and owner of the independent record label 'Diary Records', which began in 2018 and released Chaka Khan's most recent record Hello Happiness[2]

Shh.. the baby is sleeping
A blind date with CNN
a click
ouch
a click of beer man, that's the 10 year old
motherfucking deep space evil nine millimeter
white noise television
fucking 3am
gotta wonder if the roach was invented in my kitchen
shut the fuck up
don't wanna hear that shit
backwards
with the volume up to keep it all out
WE
na na na na
WE Don't .
[Chorus]
we don't like it when the city lights start fading
when the city lights fading then we can't get down (ok)
we don't like it when the city people act crooked
when the city people crooked then we can't get down (ok)
we don't like it when the city pigeons break wings
when the pigeons break wings then we can't get down (ok)
we don't like it when the city fire starts spreading
when the city fire's spreading then we can't get down (YO!)
[Verse]
Soup'ed up in it, crook with a cord
with a cord with a two tonne gimmick
Deep space evil nine millimeter gimme
damn needle point in this pin cushion family
Hot dam at the N.Y. resin
I soaked the bad air, the smoke we sold
So I'll stop, child’s smile like a moby cobra,
low key dozer revoked me ultra,
… to promote the ulcer
chug, dro bear hug wrote the folk lore
see the man … branch off strange when he willow
weep till the face go paisley
… bad brains dumb dumb brainiac bust out, girder, flushed out
… burn curdle in the dirt like its
Been all night at the earthworm church
- Bang-
clash with the ants and termites
ride through the wheels and fall off the dirt bike
well I still hold diamonds by the caseload
hide the prescription, miller said I’m stable
A R strike the pause
Put the flaws in a box with a … f*ck off
Mallet for the media, mallet for the laws
dragging a mallet through the city when he walks
subliminal is so nineties, get wit it,
im more like bird watch then a mobster look
…
it goes dem’s good deeds
… stomach churning, round 2, quick, south of the sternum
what it is now, verse what it was, beat myself till the pain came up
dork faced boy got apocalypse charm
with a yellowy grin, metal thin, metal limb
metal kicks kiss metal bricks, kiss metal
metal with this an anti bliss missile
close to the fire when I bare skin lie
leave me the idiot box I’m fine
but if i gotta see another roller skating parrot
on animal planet on a needle point eye
eye to the needle, clean set of chompers
made me a demo tape, … mobsters
go ahead y'all flap y'all chops
they stick wid it till their face fall off
And the evilest of nine's guaranteed to shoot crooked
And the evilest of nine's guaranteed to shoot crooked
And the evilest of nine's guaranteed to shoot crooked
And the evilest of nine's guaranteed to shoot crooked
Off your fucking mind
shoot crooked
[Chorus]
we don't like it when the city lights start fading
when the city lights fading then we can't get down (ok)
we don't like it when the city people act crooked
when the city people crooked then we can't get down (ok)
we don't like it when the city pigeons break wings
when the pigeons break wings then we can't get down (ok)
we don't like it when the city fire starts spreading
when the fire's spreading then we can't get down
[Verse]
I met a girl with an angel face and two devil horns pokin out maybe with her brains replaced
She said walk to the store with her, ok
bought a carton of squares, I think I fell in love today
Now whats a pretty little thing like you doing walking with a condor circle when the city lights fade
dead walk only to re-dig the graves
and make it big enough to fit tv's and microwaves
Ooooh she didnt say shit (nup)
Smiles that could melt the gloss off your whip
And before I could ask her about her high wire, homegirl walked face first straight through the fire
kill the pigs and poke th lump with a fork
if it all bleeds y’all need to shut the oven door
Here half worm dirt in the mouth
so its raining mud when the tongue lash out
cool beans, perfect dope
like Aes with a rafter and 6 feet of rope
.. spill out hate in all sections,
you can get fucked when you standing at attention
And the evilest of nine's guaranteed to shoot crooked
And the evilest of nine's guaranteed to shoot crooked
And the evilest of nine's guaranteed to shoot crooked
And the evilest of nine's guaranteed to shoot crooked
Fix the fucking antenna
[Chorus]
we don't like it when the city lights start fading
when the city lights fading then we can't get down (ok)
we don't like it when the city people act crooked
when the city people crooked then we can't get down (ok)
we don't like it when the city pigeons break wings
when the pigeons break wings then we can't get down (ok)
we don't like it when the city fire starts spreading
when the fire's spreading then we can't get down (ok)
[outro]
no doubt
he ain’t, he ain’t got a gun in no shoe box
Face to the floor drop it
Still carry the evilest nine weapons
A blind date with CNN
