LISTEN: Stormzy is joined by Ed Sheeran and Burna Boy on new single ‘Own It’

1

The next disk by rapper Stormzy is due out on Dec. 13. In addition to the collaboration with Ed Sheeran and Burna Boy, the musician called on the services of other artists elsewhere on the album.

Among those who joined him were Headie One, Tiana Major9, Yebba, H.E.R. and Aitch. The opus will also feature the previously unveiled singles “Vossi Bop”, “Crown” and “Wiley Flow”.

Stormzy recently unveiled the cover for “Heavy is The Head”, the successor to “Gang Signs & Prayer”, which was released in 2017. In the image, he appears naked to the waist, wearing a crown composed of the initials of the title (H.I.T.D) and gazing at a bulletproof vest decorated with the Union Jack. The vest recalls the one customized by the artist Banksy, which he wore on stage at the last Glastonbury Festival. RGA
