“This is fire in Belfast.”
If you haven’t heard of Stormzy yet, now is the time to acquaint yourself. The 22-year-old grime rapper from London was in Belfast on Thursday, and Dublin last night to play Trinity Ball.
So far, Stormzy has primarily released music through his own YouTube channel – but that has done nothing to stifle the hype around him, with his song ‘Shut Up’ nearing 30 million views on online.
Footage of him performing Shut Up to a very receptive Belfast crowd on Thursday has emerged, and we have to say it looks like this man has the performance value to match his tunes. Check this out:
