After a breakthrough debut, countless awards, and a step back to reflect on what’s really important to him, Stormzy is back with his third studio album, ‘This Is What I Mean’.
Stormzy sits down with Zane Lowe in London for a wide-ranging conversation ahead of the release of 'This Is What I Mean.' He reflects on his much-needed time away from the industry, his choice to leave social media, and how his friendship with fellow creatives like Adele has helped him on his journey. The conversation also touches on his lyrics responding to the media's treatment of Meghan Markle, his respect for Jay-Z and others who have paved the way, and how he thinks about adapting his music for the stage.
Following a reflective break and strengthening of his relationship with God, Stormzy feels like a better creative, rapper, and overall person-all of which is sure to be reflected in his newest body of work.
