Is Stormzy Getting Too Big For His Boots?

Stormzy has followed in the foot steps of some very reputable artists and collaborated with the sports brand, Adidas.

Adidas x Stormzy brings you, Adidas Originals SPRT.

Adidas Originals x Stormzy

The range features the Adidas Three Stripes along with a reflective design and Stormzy's 'Merky' stamp, it also comes in three colourways, with one being exclusive to JD Sports (Night Cargo). 

The range will officially launch, November 30th, however you can get some pieces now on the JD Sports website.

The prices for the pieces are not necessarily pocket-friendly...£400 for a tracksuit, and I don't care how reflective it is or that it's available early.

Can Stormzy's fans afford this, furthermore, should they be expected to spend this amount of money?

Shaunie Investigates: Police Altercation In Hackney McDonald's

The topic of Stop and Search and Section 60 is one that is being spoken about by many especially recently with their being so many deaths related to stabbings and shootings.

The pros and the cons have both been argued about and I can see both sides but when you have police officers not doing there job correctly and forgetting, or should I say, "choosing to dismiss the fundamental training they have been given"  it leads me to think that, in order for stop and search to work, the number one thing there needs to be is a common respect between each party.

Each party needs to feel that a job is being done for a purpose and not just based on the colour of someone's skin, the clothes that they are wearing or the number of people they are walking with.

Daily Mail headline using the words "attack" and "terrified". 

The process of stopping someone the police believe is a suspect of a crime (in the area), should be done correctly and not with the body language of 'A Bull In A Suit'. However this isn't always the case. I have seen a few incidents recently where the police have approached a black man in a defensive manner which only led to a bigger issue ensuing.

In August of this year, a video went viral on social media showing two police officers being attacked in an East London McDonald's.  

Several media publications ran with the visuals of this video and described it as an 'Attack On Police' or 'Police Beaten Whilst Doing Their Job'.

Rapman Signs To Roc Nation

When I talk about don't get signed, I mean it, BUT if the signage is this....."then hey, who am I to stop you?"

Andrew 'Rapman' Onwubolu, the genius behind Shiro's Story, has been signed by Jay Z's label, Roc Nation.

A lot of these artist are getting signed by labels that want to use them and have them working forever. A publishing deal here, a 360 deal there - it's all for the label.

Jay is about growth. He wants to see his people grow and with this type of deal all Andrew can do is grow, evolve. He'll have the opportunity to do something none of these labels have offered anyone in the scene.

This deal is one of the best I've seen a UK artist get, the deal covers management, film and TV.

"That's a good Look and he deserves it."

So does this mean that Shiro's Story could be extended and taken to the big screen?
