Initially, Shahid Khan was studying Business and Marketing at London Guildhall University (now London Metropolitan University), but during his first semester, he decided to drop out and did various part-time jobs in Domino's Pizza and Watford General Hospital. He won £44,000 on Deal or No Deal and spent the money on a studio in his parent's garden. He "decided to follow his ambition to write and produce his own music, under the name Naughty Boy Recordings." In the background, Shahid Khan was recording songs in his parents' garden shed in Charlock Way in Watford, Hertfordshire. The finances allowed Shahid Khan to upscale production from the garden shed to a studio in Ealing, West London. Eventually, he got a three-year contract with Sony ATV, and a one-album record deal with Virgin Records (EMI Records).
