Stormzy has announced the second single from his upcoming second album will be released tomorrow

I'm interested to hear this, Vossi Bop took a while to grow on me but I still wouldn't compare it to the highs from his debut. I wonder if he can score another #1 debut? ohmy.gif

Not sure if he could score another #1 debut. It may debut at #2, #3. I would think. Can it be another 'Vossi Bop' we'll have to see.

If as rumoured it's another slow song with a choir then I don't see it going #1.

Wow just listened to this and it's 10 times better than VP - slower yes but much more sophisticated.

It's pretty chill & nice. "Vossi Bop" is tacked onto the single, so I wonder if that'll give it a slight rebound and keep it off ACR for 3 weeks (as it'll be week 9 when it applies).

This is actually a really great track . I’m not even than big UK Rap/Grime fan but there’s something about Stormzy and his songs that I really enjoy .

I quite like this actually, I’m not a huge Stormzy fan I’ve only liked a couple of things he’s been attached to and I think BBYG is the only song of his I like (which is a great song wub.gif)

Looked up the lyrics and just discovered that it was produced by MJ Cole! (and Jimmy Napes). Explains the great atmospheric production.
Song's not quite as great as Vossi Bop anyway but a lot better than the overrated Blinded By Your Grace anyhow.

I'm really pleased this is looking like another big hit for him! Not quite as good as Vossi Bop but love the vibes of this one <3

Oh wow, I'd have never guessed that! MJ Cole making his return to the charts in some form that he deserved to get with 'Waking Up' after all *.*

I was never a big fan of 'Blinded By Your Grace, Pt. 2' either but I am enjoying this one albeit not as much as 'Vossi Bop', I'm still glad he went with that as the lead single as I'd been fully expecting him to come back with something more like this.

This doesn't lay a glove on Blinded By Your Grace but it's a nice listen. I'm sure there'll be better on the album.

tbh I think it's mainly atheists that would find Blinded By Your Grace overrated.

This is definitely a big improvement on 'Vossi Bop'.

I'm an 'Atheist', and I didn't find 'Blinded By Your Grace' overrated by any means.
