Stormzy's new video is a gif goldmine
Stormzy has just released a video for Cold, to celebrate his debut album Gang Signs & Prayer going Gold (that's 100,000 sales!)
It's a pretty simple video based around two lyrics:
1) "I've been cold the whole season / I should call my next one "Freezing"
Stormzy performs in the snow
2) "All my young black kings rise up / Man, this is our year / And my young black queens right there / It's been a long time coming, I swear"
A bunch of cute black kids show their potential - role-playing doctors, lawyers and even the King of England
But the clip, directed by Floyd Sorietu is a gif giftshop, thanks mainly to the fact that Stormzy drips with charisma; although the kids who plays the king has the best "da fuk you lookin' at" face I have ever seen.
Here's a few of my favourite moments, followed by the video "in full".
"You've let me down, you've let your mother down and, worst of all, you've let yourself down."
"Lately, I have begun to feel the effects of the inclement weather."
Woah! Extreme close-up!
This dude can throw some serious shade
"SNOW CANNONS!!!!"
