This Is What I Mean (Double Gatefold LP)

With the release of his third album, Stormzy stands not only as one of Britain's most accomplished rappers, but one of its most accomplished musicians of any genre and a cultural icon. With his new record, he's delivered an undeniable modern classic, effortlessly condensing a number of disparate styles and genres into music which thrillingly broaches any gap between soul, hip-hop, and more.

A bold, brave, and courageous leap forward from his critically acclaimed previous two No.1 records, Gang Signs & Prayer and Heavy Is The Head, this isn't music simply for the pop charts but rather an intimate love letter to music. It's an album that showcases intensely personal and lyrical themes which lay bare the vulnerabilities, regret, frailties, healing, joy, and triumph.
