Stormzy wowed the audience of The Jonathan Ross Show with his hidden childhood talent. The talk show welcomed Stormzy and his team from his publishing house, Murky Books – Chelsea Kwakye and Jude Yawson. While discussing his latest project, Stormzy revealed that he had been growing out his hair as a dedication to his album-making process. However, the haircut he recently got to signify the completion of the album went unnoticed by fans. Despite this, Stormzy‘s album will soon be released, much to the excitement of his fans.
Stormzy‘s venture into the publishing world with Murky Books aims to bring forth young talents. The first book to be published under this imprint is Stormzy‘s own story, which initially seemed like a vanity project but turned out to be a testament to his journey and the amazing team that has accompanied him. The book chronicles the success of Stormzy and the impact he has made on the UK music scene.
Joining Stormzy on the couch were Chelsea Kwakye and Jude Yawson, who will be publishing their own books under Murky Books. Chelsea’s book, titled “Taking Up Space,” sheds light on her experience as the only black female history student at Cambridge University. She discusses the challenges she faced and the importance of highlighting the achievements of black students in a predominantly white institution.
Stormzy‘s decision not to attend Cambridge, despite being offered the opportunity, was an interesting revelation. Sitting next to Chelsea, who did attend Cambridge, sparked curiosity about Stormzy‘s journey and the choices he made along the way. However, Stormzy‘s success is not limited to his music career, as he has also established scholarships in partnership with Cambridge University. These scholarships are aimed at sending young black students to Cambridge, providing them with a life-changing opportunity.
Before concluding the show, Stormzy expressed his admiration for Alicia, while also showcasing his own hidden talent. Stormzy revealed that as a child, he played the bugle as part of the Boys Brigade. Although he admitted to not knowing how to play it anymore, he demonstrated a few notes, reminiscing about his time in the Boys Brigade.
Overall, Stormzy‘s appearance on The Jonathan Ross Show was filled with excitement and anticipation for his upcoming album release. Alongside his book and the inspiring stories from Murky Books, Stormzy continues to make an impact in the music industry and beyond. With his scholarships and dedication to uplifting young talents, Stormzy is not only an incredible artist but also a force for positive change.
