Background


The album was recorded on Osea Island in England during a series of music camps with a team of "world class musicians and the best producers, writers and artists in the world" in a "free atmosphere",[4] where Stormzy "prayed every morning" during its creation. It was further described as an "intimate love letter to music" by Stormzy.[5]

The album's announcement follows the release of the single "Mel Made Me Do It" on 23 September 2022, which was not included on the album.[2]


Promotion


Following a break of almost three years from social media, Stormzy announced the album on his social media on 12 October 2022, sharing the cover art and track list.[6] The lead single "Hide & Seek" was released on 14 October 2022, and preceded by clips of Stormzy recording the song that he posted on social media.[3]
