He recently won two MOBOs for Best Male and Best Grime Act, and charted with his wickedskengman4 freestyle - all before he'd even released an album - so it's hardly a surprise that Stormzy is on a steady and rapid rise to international success.
If you tuned into his new Beats 1 radio show #Merky on Friday, you were given an exclusive listen to his JME inspired track ‘Standard.’ The track, which was produced by 'Not That Deep' beat makers The HeavyTrackerz and shot by Link Up TV’s Kaylum Dennis, had more than 100,000 views in the first 8 hours pf its release.
I don't think anyone understands how gassed I am at this tune... 💥💥💥💥💥💥 #PROBLEM @Stormzy1 https://t.co/ooyFg8hrqE

Sitting on a throne, wearing his favourite brand Adidas, the 'Where Do You Know Me From' MC shows that his success this year is pretty much a 'Standard' thing. With no release date for the actual track, it seems as though we should keep an eye on Stomzy’s Twitter for any more updates.
