High-flying MC Stormzy took to the BBC Radio 1Xtra Live Lounge for a massive special.
The South London star performed his own numbers "Blinded By Your Grace", "21 Gun Salute", "Bad Boys", and a cover of Frank Ocean's Blonde track "Godspeed".
Seeing as this was a 'special', Stormzy rolled out an impressive roster of friends, including MNEK, J Hus, Ghetts, and Wretch 32, plus an emotive choir to add some oomph to the studio session.
Stormzy released acclaimed debut album (and UK chart topper) Gang Signs & Prayer last month.
