Stormzy has released his latest single, "Sounds of The Skeng." The Sir Spyro-produced banger is a skippy and light-hearted moment from the British artist, who earlier this year became the first grime artist in history to headline the U.K.'s Glastonbury Festival.

"Sounds of the Skeng" follows recent Stormzy singles "Vossi Bop" and "Crown." A Sir Spyro remix of Stormzy and Ed Sheeran's "Take Me Back To London" is currently No.1 in the U.K. He released his debut album Gang Signs & Prayer in 2017.

In June #Merky Books, Stormzy's book imprint, announced Monika Radojevic and Hafsa Zayyan as the co-winners of its Writer's Prize, which seeks to boost young and traditionally underrepresented writers.
