In the section where it lists other names for Stormzy, I believe it should also include the name 'Big Mike', as he often refers to himself as this alias in his songs.

Stormzy's education

I believe that Stormzy's impressive exam results and academic success should be included into the 'Early Life' section, as he says in his talk at Oxford University (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OjoEmEUV29A) that he received 6 GCSEs at A star level, as well as two at A and three at B. He also received an ABCDE at A level examinations. I think that it is important that this is included, seeing as it draws away from the racist stereotypes of young male grime rappers being uneducated and draws attention to the fact. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jbross239 (talk • contribs) 20:46, 9 March 2017 (UTC)

Stormzy discography

Support split - Discography section takes up more than one half of the page, and should be split to a new article entitled Stormzy discography. --Jax 0677 (talk) 13:18, 30 March 2017 (UTC) Support - same here. Will get on with it myself if need be. Unreal7 (talk) 15:02, 25 April 2017 (UTC)

According to Stormzy's hit songs "One take freestyle", "Return of the rucksack" and "Mr Skeng", he is also widely known by the following nicknames: "Gunshot Mike", "Mr. Skeng", "Stiff Chocolate" and "Big Mike". In his song "Mr Skeng" (from the album GSAP) Stromzy clearly states in the hook that he wants to be referred to as "Gunshot Mike" or "Mr Skeng" ( see following link for proof: https://genius.com/11408922 ). His moniker "Stiff Chocolate" is found within the lines of his song "One take freestyle" ( see link: https://genius.com/8586573 ). Last but not least Stormzy reminds us all in his songs "Return of the Rucksack" ( Verse 1, line 11: https://genius.com/Stormzy-return-of-the-rucksack-lyrics ) and "Cold" ( see link: https://genius.com/11500359 ) that he also runs by the name "Big Mike". For this reason I kindly request you to add these aliases to the article's "Also known as" section. Vendigate (talk) 13:11, 2 October 2017 (UTC)

Abusive statements

No room I see to refer to his history of homophobic abuse including a flood of Tweets about "fucking fags", or his call for Tories to be burned in their homes. Plenty of room to record his support for Jeremy Corbyn though. Funny dat.

He's not English. He's Ghanian British! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 147.147.192.70 (talk) 23:13, 22 February 2018 (UTC)

I noticed someone Jkaharper is with bias removing factual historical occurence from Stormzy's profile. I wish to stop this. Oranade (talk) 21:11, 8 October 2018 (UTC)

Stormzy is British, not English. Get it right as this is racially incorrect. British born black people are as British as I am, but NOT English 86.25.64.107 (talk) 15:24, 13 October 2018 (UTC)
