Stormzy Turned Down Jay-Z Collaboration | The Jonathan Ross Show 

Looooooooool truuuuust

Oooh! Totally agree! But gotta admit I still love how successful Ed. From busking to a millionaire #inspiring

😂😂😂😂😂

hahahah shit your hole man your blowing it maynnnnnnnnnn

That’s the exact Face 😂😂

I dont feel to good mr z

@@benjordan1916 i

I read this as he said it

@@jamieadams2348 ikr. 😅

He hasn't even started it yet! 😂

@@jamieadams2348 Same 😂😂😂

Yep

Ahmad Danial Basaruddin exactly

Ahmad Danial Basaruddin but... American boy wouldn’t be the song it is without Kanye and Estelle

@@CKBREEZY7 yh but Estelle is talking about someone being HER American boy. She's not speaking from an American's perspective, so it makes sense.

@@Ctrl_Alt_Elite And more than that, if it wasn't her it might not have been about her American boy and walking through the city exploring another culture etc.

Great point.

@Journey To Valhalla Having Jay-Z on it would have made it US instead of British. Simple really!

@Journey To Valhalla He's a Croydon boy. Don't be pathetic.

@UC1UrY6NUMZNSNEz33A80-wA Comparing a dog and a horse is completely different and out of proportion to what you was talking about.

@Journey To Valhalla i hope you know Stormzy was born in England

@Journey To Valhalla And how can you say nothing about Stormzy is british smh, he makes the song more British

A send for Jonathan Ross the Grime Scene Slavour

Needs to be at least six minutes long 😂😂

Long story short you a snack

JDM-DEEBO it happens with actors all the time

He is just nervous probs

At least his grammar is good.

🤣🤣🤣

Because he doesn't write his own lyrics.

Edit to short please lol

If you edit the comment your a bitch

Alex F 🤦🏽‍♂️ that was the joke mate

He edited it anyway good man 😂

I was there in the audience when this was being filmed and he told this story for about 10-15 minutes 😂 he was hilarious though

high_reacher haha, 🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂

Ded

Lol

pretty much ..

Wouldn’t go that far bruv. In reality Kanye west was jay z back up dancer and stormzy was Kanye back up dancer. That’s fact

@@jonnyquid4878 dude, you missed the point!

Jonny Quid it’s a line in he’s song. This was killer funny 🤣🤣

He didn't stand up to Jay Z. It wasn't a conflict. He was just honourable enough to speak truthfully.

Beede Bawng my bad, I’m not a native speaker and these words seemed right

@@creeperowa89 You could still say stand up; it's just a different context that you used it in which could be interpreted differently.

Still makes sense to me. Agreed

@@ssilvaxxx22 he didn't stand up, he was asked a question and answered honestly

And a drunk as evidence here

Howard Charles so did plan b

Ironic or Iconic?

@@aaroncrocker4242 the skateboard company?

@@aaroncrocker4242 the skateboard company?

@@kingston2411 no a UK rapper

Stormzy is the next black Spiderman innit

😂😂😂

Sorry mr stark

I thought that lol

😭🤣🤣

Bro really

if u consider the illuminati a metaphor for selling out then jay z is a PROMINENT member lmfao

@Journey To Valhalla No he's not. He's just a rapper that's made it big into the mainstream and is suffering opposition, both for himself and from people like you. You lot don't make it better for people going through phases when you say this shit.

😂😂😂😂

Basically

true

Yeah but then Aitch isn’t from London either so idk...

Innit

Sam James he does but he’s humble which is good.

He’s huge but jay z is like top 3 of all time huge, I get why he did it but I honestly doubt that collab will happen again since jay z is jay z :(

@@user-du3yr8ld7i Jay z overrated why everybody act like that man is god

@@allaboutthemurzic probably bc he is one of the greatest rappers of all time. Both in music and success.

He lived in London in the late 80s, so it kinda does make sense...

I didnt know

@DEAN to the remix lol just adding that manny and brum experience

London records is what launched jay z career after every american label rejected him and he was totally broke and nobody would lend him any more money. this was prior to his first album when he was poor and had nothing. london made jay z.

John Blaze I didn’t know this butting he did he shouldn’t have asked these questions about London then, And now reading up he’s been there only in 89 ... but it doesn’t matter in the end cool story nevertheless

michael amegatcher no one asked

Tadhg K Shut up asshole

@@TadhgKennelly Are you surprised I said he is a Ghanaian, Masa whether you like it or not he is born to a Ghanaian parents and there is nothing you can do. 🇬🇭🇬🇭🇬🇭🇬🇭😂😂😂, You better accept that Truth.

Tadhg K fam shut up, no one’s checking for you.

How does the phrase “a long story short” have anything to do with Ghanaian mentality? Loool It’s an English phrase

Not even a smiling alpaca

And make it 7 mins long.

Because it's Jay-Z... like he tried to explain, he was completely star struck, he idolizes Jay-Z and just wanted to do a track with him and wasn't really thinking about it. But after their conversation about London and Jay-Z asking him about it, he snapped out of it and saw that it wasn't right for him even though it was an opportunity to work with his idol. He chose to keep it real in stead of forcing this collaboration that actually didn't make any sense and that's a very VERY brave move, that is the definition of keeping it real.

yea that was kinda dumb on ed’s part but 🤷🏽‍♀️

your idol 😂

truss, I think he wanted to say so many things at once

Its okay, honestly it's probably one of his first times being on a night show, and when you wanna say so many things at once things like this to happen are completely normal, you think all these celebrities are just naturally confident? Nope they take special classes on how to answer and how to deal with things like this

@@jasonstyles2798 Yeah yeah its completely normal, just kinda felt sorry for him with the audience laughing and the pressure which probably made him to stutter

I like Stormzy and I think his stuttered delivery gives him character but he really does need to prepare or practice his interviewing skills lol this is the second time now after the Graham Norton show

Lord Kek tell my man shut up

Byoots

G Daley but that wasnt a test though, he had journalists and all sitting in the room next to them

Yves B Ohh yeahhh your right my bad 😅😅

except for the fact that Ed Sheeran is from flippin Leeds so it's not proper anyhow.

I think a foreigner could sing the chorus. But verses would sound better from an American

Neither does Poch

@@Stinkmeaner420 😂😂😂

Short story long? 🤔

we've all been there though lol

Ash G no, he doesn’t...

@@VictorLugosi well yes he does because stormzy just told us

Of course he does lol

Victor Lugosi he does every once in a while, for instance Rick Rubin said he wrote down 99 problems!

Koolkid jay usually doesn't write and he's not the only one, Big did it, wayne did it..they just memorize their verses instead of writing them down.

Real talk, this would be career suicide if it was a seedy music exec 🤣 but that's why Jay is one of the realest rappers ever.

imagine turning down the goat in favour of ed sheeran

@@manaulhoque6507 it wasn't in favour of Ed Sheeran, he would've been on it anyway It was to keep the video authentic
