‘If you knew my story you’d be horrified’: Stormzy explains cryptic lyric to Louis Theroux
Stormzy has opened up to Louis Theroux for his BBC series Louis Theroux Interviews, marking his first in-depth interview in two years.
In episode one of the six-part series, Theroux visits the British artist at his home, and also attends his sold-out gig in Glasgow.
At one point, Theroux asks the 29-year-old about the meaning behind a lyric from his 2019 single “Crown”.
In the song, Stormzy raps: “If you knew my story you’d be horrified.”
“I’ve been stabbed a few times… to some people that’s going to be horrifying,” Stormzy tells Theroux, explaining what he was referring to.
“You go on that journey and it can lead you anywhere. It’s a random box of prison, death, becoming an entrepreneur because you learnt to be streetwise and now you applied that, becoming a musician, becoming a footballer. But of course, the most likely ones are harmed, dead or in jail.
