Teaming up with Red Bull Studios, he decided to give his fans a special treat performing three separate, secret shows around the city of London. His performances were announced on social media to which crowds turned out in the masses to see the artist. The final show took place in Stormzy’s hometown of Croydon which drew in 2,000 loyal fans who heard him perform “Big For Your Boots” and “Cold” amongst other album tracks.

Stormzy began his road to musical success many years ago as an underground artist. After grinding away with impressive freestyles and tracks, the rapper proudly put out GSAP today. The sixteen joint album features UK talent such as as Wretch 32 and MNEK. Also channeling the RnB slow jam vibe, Stormzy also collaborated with “CRZY” singer Kehlani on “Cigarettes and Cush,” who the rapper is good friends with. A special day for the London-born artist, he even got a shout out from Adele on Twitter for the record.
GSAP can be streamed below and is available to purchase now on iTunes.
