Overview
Discover the incredible life of Stormzy, the British singer-songwriter who introduced grime to a new generation of music lovers.
Little Michael Ebenazer Kwadjo Omari Owuo Jr—nicknamed Stormzy—grew up in London, UK, and always loved to listen to music. Inspired by the grime artists he idolized, he was just eleven years old when he picked up a microphone and started rapping at this local youth club.
As a teenager, Stormzy kept perfecting his skills, uploading videos of himself freestyling online, and he soon became famous on the underground grime scene. His lyrics were clever and mischievous, and his delivery was fast and powerful. When his song, "Shut Up," went viral, it kick-started his career, and a few years later, his record Gang Signs & Prayer became the first grime album to top the charts. Today he has four number-one singles and three number-one albums, and fans across the globe.
Stormzy has also used his platform for positive change: as well as using his lyrics to talk about social injustice, he has set up a publishing imprint to platform underrepresented voices, funded a scholarship to send more Black students to Cambridge University in the UK, and created a programme called Merky FC to get more Black-British people in the soccer industry.
This inspirational book also features dynamic illustrations and extra facts at the back, including a biographical timeline with photos and a detailed profile of the musician’s life.
