I can see why people like this guy, so down to earth
Lessons is a song that hopefully will be a wake up call for all the bruddas out there that have a good woman, a queen and think twice about straying. It's hard to find a good woman and it's also hard to find a good man , and if you are lucky enough to find that someone don't take that quest and blessing for granted.
I think he’s a genius, and you should never put your self in a box in any genre.. I love all albums and singles and you can see he’s respectful in every way.. mad love stormyz 👊
massive respect for opening up about the Maya, takes some balls that lad
easy to forget he's ONLY 26 jheeze, he's got another 10-15 years at least, he's doing things the UK rappers have never seen and has a good head on his shoulders tbh excited to see his journey
@@mountainhigh9156 You need a hug.
Rainfall is my favourite track when I heard it I got tingles in my spine
"I could never diss you on a record bro" - I'm so disappointed 😂. Stormzy merked Wiley tho
What's merked pls
A dot is easily the best interviewer in the U.K. for the culture. She’s wasted on the BBC!
She needs to get back to spitting bars too.
circa 15mins shows a lot of self awareness from Stormzy and I respect it. Respects grime, just a lad who wants to make music regardless of genre, credits the pioneers. The honesty is refreshing
That Wiley Impression @ 18:00 Is Gold 😂😂😂
Nathaniel Bell Hahahaha so good
Stormzy isn’t just a rapper, he’s actually one of the best musicians in this country.
The album is a solid body of work, with amazing replay value, and there’s something in it for everyone.
Musician you say, and what instrument does he play? Piano, guitar, drums, clarinet?
@@RecklessBones MJ didn't play any of those, yet is considered one of the greatest of all time.. It's more than that..
Spencer Rout you know a Singer is a musician aswell, right?
Spencer Rout a musician is not only one that plays a musician, but also one that is musically talented. Now get the heck out of my comments
@@RecklessBones lol you're talking out of your arse now...take your negativity somewhere else.
That’s the realist thing to say Stormz in your position. You’re so humble broski!!
What a strength to have, to discuss a personal hardship in the public. Credit to Stormzy for that.
Great album!
Stormzy can't really articulate himself well, l know that feeling trying to get all the words out at once but just relax the words will fluently flow. Still my fave tho👊🏿👍🏿👏🏿
Timmy G good advice
Good interview! Stormzy has grown into a complete artist on this album
Stormz is that man. Don’t feel like you need to apologise for anything. You have made been one of the biggest and greatest pioneers to take grime from what it is, to the mainstream. Absolute bar genius. So much respect. Please keep running with what you have, we are all eager to see what’s next. Come on
Love ADOT...she literally says what im thinking every morning.
Stormzy is a Genuine soul! He is under a lot of pressure you can see the weight of the crow he wears, but he is growing and dealing with it in front of our eyes!
True or facts?...Stormzy has elevated to another type of artist that is only greatness. Ever since the days of spitting occasionally with Cadet aka The Rated Legend as well as Weaz, Fret Deezy and of course Krept and Konan. You can really learn lessons from his growth so far.
The Alkebulan Trust what a melt
You dont have to justify who or what you choose to invest your money in, its nobody elses business. You are right to represent your own culture, others do. You are a decent human being.
I feel like this album Stormzy's vocals has just gone onto another level. I enjoyed his singing on the album more than the grime tunes tbh
Stormzy shows so much heart. I thank God for him
Peter Burke o dear
Stormzy is the most genuine, down to earth guy. Always touches on such important topics and uses his influence to to good. He deserves it all and the album was a masterpiece. Can’t wait to see you in New Zealand
Lessons is the best song in the album 🙋♀️
*I LOVE STORMZY*
This just makes you fall in love with him.. Not even in a romantic way.. But just loving who he is.. He was on road as a young man that changed his choices and decisions and focused on what he loves.. He real genuine and sincere that's why he has so much success.. Don't ever change Stormzy no matter how many millions you make.. You're major inspiration and wish all these young men caught up in road life could realise their potential.. They are special and they have great talent too.. But using their energy on the wrong thing.. Look at his journey we can all learn from him and I am a fully grown adult older than Stormzy but admire he wholeheartedly
@@newworld6821 thank you Father, I really appreciate your time am also an upcoming musician From Africa and STORMZY really inspire me.
I wish you the best and may all your dreams come true... Keep pushing for what you believe in
@@newworld6821 blessed
He is amazing and the album is PHENOMENAL
Love he's music and he's personality, very humble man!
this interview is so touching, I really do understand you Stormzy. Dont forget to breathe
good interview, so need more interviews with Adot like her vybz
Stormzy as grown as a artist and is adressing all is regrets & is correcting all the wrongs that has gone on in his life but he's so humble still !! . This man for sure wears his heart on his sleeve but is truely levelled up . Bless Up . ✌🇬🇧🤘💯
Absolutely. He’s an #intelligent #young man speaking what he feels and agrees on. Bless him. 👍👍👍
💣
20:10 is why you came
Benjamin Flopper you’re the GOAT🤣✊🏾
Benjamin Flopper not all hero’s wear capes
@Thomas vanDyke scumbag
Thankkksssss
Thank you!!
Thank god for this talented young man👏🏾✌🏿
Dottie like the interview, well on point.
Stormzy life is a journey and on that journey you will be learning, so continue to learn and grow and enjoy, no matter what age, I’m double your age and still learning. Nothing wrong with that. All the best 🙏🏾
The album is good, my daughters friend laughed when I told her I bought it.
👍🏾👍🏾
this man should run for labour leader as he is in touch with the working man and the kids who are struggling with real day to day life .
danny 2ME what a stupid thing to say, you’ve let yourself down big time with that comment.
You are a fool as was Jeremy Corbyn. Stormzy can only relate to the London youth. Outside of London, he holds no real influence outside of his music and fame
He’s more relatable to people outside of London than people think. I always liked his stuff when it first came out 5 years ago, when I was leaving school, and now I’m a teacher 5 years later the kids are still loving his music. I grew up in the Home Counties and am a teacher in inner city Manchester and I know people from Scotland and Northern Ireland that like him. If he learned more about policies and about the nature of politics I’d vote for him and I think many other people would
5542tom what a melt you are!! You think he should run the country because you can relate to him?? You moron
😅💣
I like how some sounds never change. It's been a while since i've listened/watched radio 1/1xtra but that intro has been the same for at least 10 years now. And the sound Dotty used to introduce Stormzy hasn't changed either. Mad.
Yeah yeah Stromzy The Goat🔥🔥
That Wiley impression @ 18:41 😂😂
Stomzy is getting heavy good to see him doing good
Huge respect for this guy
I can’t lie I’ve been a hater on Stormzy, he smashed that interview a true human being. Not sure why I hated but I did. He showed soul, honesty, humour and sincerity. That impression of Wiley was on point.
Maya Jama @ 20:00...You’re welcome
Em you’re a real one for that
Stomzy said he could never diss Wiley on a record.... Fast forward 3 weeks later an man drops a madness on Wiley saying he's disappointed LOL
Thats happens when you send for man by dissing his mum. #error #merky
#truth loved this! So south london ❤❤❤
He’s come so far bless up stormzy ☔️
watched from Boston,MA
10:45 the confidence...woah
Such a nice genuine guy ❤️
Thats how you know that man really growing when man start checkin himself I knew that shit when I started checking myself
Stormzy waffles too much man
ForbesEU
Mate he ain’t waffling bc he wants to waffle
Nerves and (social) anxiety do that to ppl
Big up the genuine ones !
The most unhateable guy man LONG LIVE STROMZ
If you want to know what really inspired Stormzys style..listen to DOT ROTTEN - REMEMBER ME EP. He admitted it in 2014 but hasn’t mentioned dots name since.
Walkingtall he deffo mentioned dot...he probably don’t remember specifics but he does mention dot sometimes✨ he might not have put emphasise on this interview but he has mentioned it before and even if he does not go into detail about the sepcific ep he still recognises what inspired him..not everything needs to be shared with the world anywayssss
19:06 well that changed lol
I was just about to say the same thing LOL Never say never
Is there a better interviewer out there than Dotty? Brilliant interview
He played the game different and he got different results. I don’t think it’s sinked in for him yet tbh.
Love those two
Stormzy is so necessary for grime music, a powerhouse superstar truly capable of representing us all... Take it up to the next level kiddo, thanks for existing, and yes yes yes please keep pushing those exclusively black (or any marginalised community) initiatives, white supremacy is everywhere and must be countered
Skepta is still the king of the whole sound, but he just can't be or do what you do
Kano still makes the best tracks every year, but can't wear the crowN
Bugzy IS king of the North
It's Wiley scene and sound, he is the originator, and always will be, but he's not interested in pushing the art and culture
Dizzee gave grime the quality and notoriety, and we will always be grateful
SLOWTHAI has the newest vibe right now, one to watch, hopefully
GRIME IS THE FRESHEST SOUND ON THE PLANET
KEEP IT REAL KIDDOS
Anyone else thought stormzy was going to spit some bars at 10:12 lol mans talking and it sounds like rap. love from Trinidad bruv
Just subtly rocking a Patek don..Jeez!!!👌💥🔥
75k on the wrist crazy
BIG UP TO YOU STORMZYYY!! Absolutely amazingggg! Doing your thing and continuing to shine and bringing people like my cousin on your track and allowing her to collab with you because you see her potential...im happy your just doing you!! Don’t worry Stormzy...I will meet you soon😂😂😂
Great interview
What a G
Big up Storm ❤️🙏🏿
So much maturity
The fact this has under 1000 views is dumb , big up stomz👊🏾

Rachel's little brother❤❤

Dotty my babes real talk xxxxxx
Stormzy your making me proud real g stuff it's mad love your boy sirshys 😎&Dotty Love ur voice it's my morning comfort 😘😍😘😍😂
I remember seeing him perform at Eros , Enfield
14:10 Hes talking facts here.
I wish Stormzy would try to get his music out in the US more all we got is trash these days. I heard him in 2014 first time and haven’t stopped. I Play him for my friends all the time he could be massive out here no doubt. I hope he doesn’t stop any time soon I’ll have nothing to listen to
18:38 😭😂😭😂😭😂😭😂 *the Wiley impression is too funny..!*
I like the grace & humility throughout this convo.. 💯🎯💯🎯💯
He may not be "there" yet but God is doing a work in him.. 🔥
- @Acharich
man's a giant!
Lmao the wiley impression was 1000%
Has anyone noticed Stormzy didn’t mention Skepta as one of the older generation he gets along with...I mean like why did they fallout?
I love what Stormzy REPRESENTS!... Im so proud of you storms!!.... Congrats on the New Album... And Congrats on the New House on the Hill! 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Please don't spend all your Advance money to Quickly tho because You know how fuckery the Industry Is... THEY still got It In for you for your performance talking about Grenfell and Theresa May!!... THEY will sit back and watch you climb and blow up and then take everything from you in a heartbeat and Blacklist you. I'm not trying to rain on storms parade.... But the Industry Is fuckery!!!... THEY will start by booting your door In making false allegations... To Arresting you over lies... To Fucking up your performance on stage like not switching on the music in your ear whilst your performing at Glastonbury 👀.... Because storms spoke out About the Government on stage THEY will come for him in dribs and drabs 👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽 I'm already seeing shit happen around storms!......
Like the grime NAS love em
The fact that you said it’s for black kids annoyed people cus they know there are so many things like that just for white people but they don’t say it out loud . Big up
👑
Stormzy is whole mood
The truth 👊🏿 keep growing
Stormzy is a pioneer and an icon for British hip-hop. what a guy.
Love dotty haha
There's no genre in a studio just art. Genre is for fans and music is for musicians
you have to respect headie for jumping on this ting and still talking about opp block
Life long learning, I agree. IMO you got to let go of your identity be truly be free and grow. Just allow the grip to loosen at least.
I’m so behind - I don’t follow social media but what exactly happened with stormzy and maya.... I loved them together
Hate that he sees the scholarships as winding up the nation. Only pissed people off because there is so much power in it. Your money, you do you.
DROPPING FREESTYLE THIS THURSDAY
🙏🏾
Stormz shouldn’t let the bullshit of politics get him down. Fuck all of em. No ones gonna care. Allow em. But big up Stormz 👏
wow he really knows how to waffle
LUKAKU REALLY DOING HIS THING
Untill he makes his first touch..
He looks more like benteke
That Patek watch is on sale for £92,000 right now. You are welcome.
My man spits fire on his album and then gives me a headache with all the stammering in this interview
Big Rasclart Michael
love your hair
Honestly touching album. So diverse. Do better, big Michael, Rachel's little brother, dont forget to breathe & pop boy bangers. What the fuck am I saying. There wasnt one fucking skippabble track. Congratulations Stormzy##
