His first release was a Free Download project titled Coins 2 Notes which dropped at the start of 2008. It is well liked due to his fast skippy flow being used on many tracks, something which he changed for his future releases. It features producers such as Rude Kid, Joker and many more, as well as many MC features.
Since then P Money's work rate has been very high with the release of two further projects in September 2008. One was a further Free Download called A Little Back Then With Now featuring MC's such as Little Dee, Desperado and Tempman. Producers such as Skepta, Dot Rotten and Wiley are included and it is mixed by DJ Pester.
As well as this he also dropped his debut shop release entitled P Money Is Power on the 29th of September. This mix cd included MC's such as Blacks, Ice Kid and Little Dee. The producers involved included Dot Rotten, Crayzee Bandit and Mr Slash. This mixcd included well-received tracks such as Sounds and Gimmicks and the remix for What Did He Say, for which a video was shot. There is also a video for the tune London Boy from this CD.
On the 7th September 2009 P Money released his second mixcd titled Money Over Everyone. It has been very well received by fans, hailed as release of the year by many. There are many big name features such as Wiley, Frisco and fellow OG's members Blacks & Little Dee on vocals, and the producers include Silencer, Rude Kid, Scratcha, Maniac & many more. P Money once again delivered many original ideas for tunes on this CD such as the clever yet still hype 1UP and Fruits & Veg, as well as Hot Ones, which features Blacks and Little Dee spitting each others bars.
P Money is known for going to radio on a much more consistant basis than many MC's in the grime scene. He can often be heard on DJ JJ Rinse FM show on early Monday mornings at 1-3am.

Pagans Everywhere
P Money Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I don't care about top one, two or three
'Cah they'll talk about four when I back out the hammer (mad)
You won't find Lord of the mics on my planner, what you on about?
I ain't even cool with Jammer
I know it's not beef but have I told you why?
One or two of my friends might tell me I have to
But I ain't a pagan, my brother is Jamie
I never wanna text him, sorry I had to (know why?)
The joke of it is if you tried to wrap him, I might still back him
You not understanding is what I imagine
'Cause I have got loyalty you can't imagine (trust)
For my guys, I will fly like Aladdin
I'll duck man down like it's Madden
Escape from the floor with these patterns
Keep thinkin' I'm chattin', I'll leave man spread out and flattened
This whole EP is a bonus
You man know who's the coldest
You're levels below me
What's the point in ownin' a Lambo' if you man can't afford my focus (mad)
Man I've come a long way from growin' food in the front room (sheesh)
Servin' to stoners, my bro didn't notice I had two sticks in the pad
Comin' like the Xbox controllers (wow)
You look good in your three bag jacket
'Til you get sprayed up and coated
Anyone that diss me, noted
I am not jokin', know this
I'll go through your X-Files and track man down like Scully and Mul' did
Man indirect, I will notice (huh)
A red sea will part from under your nose-bridge
When I raise my hand like I'm Moses
(Moses, moses, moses, moses, moses)
Pagans everywhere, trust me, nothin' ain't goin' unnoticed
(Noticed, noticed, noticed, noticed, noticed)
When I raise my hand like I'm Moses
(Moses, moses, moses, moses, moses)
Pagans everywhere, trust me, nothin' ain't goin' unnoticed
(Noticed, noticed, noticed, noticed, noticed)
When they're talkin' egos, I ain't got much of that
MC list, you can miss me with all that
I don't care about king of this, king of that
Look at the state of the scene, this kingdom is whack (trust)
A million songs talkin' about waps
When half of them haven't even heard one clap
They always get ruck up then shut up
Why don't they ever wanna talk 'bout that? (Hmm)
Man are not biggin' up the girls these times
There's a few that'll spin 'em off tracks (hmm)
Spotify showed us your play count
Rich in your lyrics but you don't make racks (that's true)
You've been dead for the last four years
Now you're chattin' far about bringin' grime back
Shockin' behaviour 'cause it's Pikachu if I tweet you
What do you mean by that? (hmm)
You know what, give it a rest
These MCs beg friend of best
Don't DM me givin' me ratings
Tweet that with your chest, blood
Who are you tryna impress?
Violate me, it's payback time
Every day of your life, comin' like uni' debt interest
On smoke but I'm blessed
Been like this since I was young, turfin' one or two out the crèche, F drop
I got flows that'd man an arm and a leg
Dis me and go home with one arm and a leg
Every man's chattin' less about bullet-proof vests
Always forget to armour the head
Every year they say grime is dead
How can it be dead when it's here every year, makes sense?
You man sound obsessed
I make about a hundred a year from streams
That sounds like cheques (mad)
(Mad, mad, mad, mad, mad)
Pagans everywhere, trust me, nothin' ain't goin' unnoticed
(Noticed, noticed, noticed, noticed, noticed)
When I raise my hand like I'm Moses
(Moses, moses, moses, moses, moses)
Pagans everywhere, trust me, nothin' ain't goin' unnoticed
(Noticed, noticed, noticed, noticed, noticed)
The song "Pagans Everywhere" by P Money is a reflection of his perspective on the grime scene and the attitudes of other artists towards him. In the first verse, P Money disregards the idea of being ranked as one of the top artists and speaks about how he would much rather handle his business in a more physical manner by having a hammer. He also touches on the topic of loyalty and how he would back a friend no matter what, even if that means having to confront someone else. In the second verse, P Money criticizes the current state of the grime scene, calling out artists who only talk about guns when they have never actually used one, and those who rely heavily on streaming revenue but don't make much money from their music.
The chorus of the song is where P Money makes a bold statement - "Pagans everywhere, trust me, nothin' ain't goin' unnoticed." He compares himself to Moses, referencing the biblical story of parting the Red Sea, and essentially saying that anyone who tries to oppose him will face the consequences. Overall, the song has a strong and unapologetic tone, with P Money delivering a message of both confidence and aggression.
