WATCH: Stormzy faces his toughest interview yet – primary school children

Dave Hanratty

Stormzy school interview

“Why do you not like Boris Johnson?”

Because, according to Stormzy, Boris Johnson is a very, very bad man.

“You know like the Big Bad Wolf? He’s gonna come down and blow your house down,” laughs the hip hop sensation upon returning to his old school for Noisey.

Fresh from the release of second album Heavy Is the Head, the man born Michael Ebenazer Kwadjo Omari Owuo Jr. sat down for a tense grilling, courtesy of primary school children.

Any good back-and-forth requires the marriage of an interested interview subject and the right questions, and so it proved as Stormzy gave his thoughts on the recently re-elected UK Prime Minister, the definition of a ‘wasteman’ and just how he knows so many bad words.

“I don’t actually know any bad words,” he swears.

The bit where the kids realise he went to the same school as them is an all-timer.

Honestly, the whole thing is incredible. Check it out below.
