Romeo rose to fame as a member of the So Solid Crew
So Solid Crew member Romeo has been released on bail following a court appearance on charges of wounding with intent to cause grievous bodily harm.

The rapper, real name Marvin Dawkins, is alleged to have been involved in a fight in a car park in central London.

The 24-year-old was released on bail at Southwark Crown Court, on condition he observes a 7pm to 7am curfew.

Romeo recently appeared in Channel 4's celebrity sports contest The Games and launched a solo career.

Two of the star's brothers and another man have also been charged in relation to the alleged knife attack, said to have happened behind a fire station in Shaftsbury Avenue, London.

Julian Dawkins, 26, of Rotherhithe, south east London, and Thomas Engola, 27, of Battersea, south east London, were remanded in custody.

Nathan Dawkins, 18, appeared at the hearing on bail.

Romeo's bail conditions also included not entering certain parts of central London and living at an address in Rotherhithe.

All four defendants are due to appear for a plea and directions hearing on 27 September.
