Stormzy has shared the tracklist for his upcoming debut album, which has been teased via a series of mysterious billboards this week.

The record, due out 24 February, will feature guest appearances from Raleigh Ritchie, Kehlani, MNEK, Ghetts, J Hus, Wretch 32, and is reportedly produced by Messers Mo and Mikey Samuels.

Stormzy's debut LP has been in the works for a while (we can't wait). Last year he told i-D that we "will hear Stormzy the son, the boyfriend, the brother, the bredrin, all of it. I will give you a moment in time in music."

In an interview with Clash the MC, real name Michael Omari, says the album will sound "like Michael personified."

"And I’m using Michael not Stormzy, because I feel like I need to get back to who I am," Omari says. "There’s been glimpses of people seeing who I am but I’m talking on a musical level. You’re getting the freestyles, you’re getting the records here and there, but you’re not getting who Stormzy is. I want you to understand who I am, what I love, what I hate, what I treasure, what has stunted my growth, helped my growth. I want everything to be in this record."

It's still unclear if the album's full name is actually #GSAP or if it's an acronym - either way, not long to wait to find out!

Hear a preview of album track "Cold", which was debuted at last year's Way Out West festival, below.
