This Is What I Mean auf Wikipedia (oder andere Quellen):
This Is What I Mean is the third studio album by British rapper Stormzy, released on 25 November 2022, by #Merky and 0207 Def Jam. The album serves as Stormzy's first release under 0207 Def Jam. It features guest appearances from Amaarae, Ayra Starr, Black Sherif, Debbie, India Arie, Jacob Collier, Ms Banks, Nao, Sampha, and Tendai, alongside production from Grades, Juls, P2J, Scribz Riley, and several other producers. The album serves as a follow-up to Stormzy's third album, Heavy Is the Head (2019).[2]
Upon release, This Is What I Mean was met with widespread critical acclaim, with music critics praising Stormzy's "hard-hitting lyricism".[3] The album debuted atop the UK Albums Chart, moving 27,800 album-equivalent units in its first week, marking the rapper's third consecutive chart-topping album,[4] and was nominated for Album of the Year at the 2023 Brit Awards.[5] The album was supported by two singles: "Hide & Seek" and "Firebabe", both of which peaked in the top ten of the UK Singles Chart.
Background and recording
Following the album's announcement, through a press release, Stormzy revealed that 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", where Stormzy "prayed every morning" during its creation.[6][7][8]
When you hear about music camps, they always sound intense and somber. People saying, “We need to make an album.” “We need to make some hit records.” But this felt beautifully free. We’re all musicians, but we weren’t always doing music. Some days we played football or walked around taking pictures. And the byproduct to that was very beautiful music. Because when you marry that ethos with world-class musicians and the best producers, writers, and artists in the world, and we’re in one space, that’s a recipe for something that no one can really imagine. You can’t even calculate what that’s going to come up with. And it came up with a big chunk of this album.
Release and promotion
On 23 September 2022, Stormzy released the non-album single "Mel Made Me Do It" which many assumed would mirror the sound of the album.[9] Following an almost three-year hiatus from social media, Stormzy announced the album on his social media on 12 October 2022, sharing the cover art and tracklist.[10] Just two days later, Stormzy released the album's lead single, "Hide & Seek" on 14 October 2022, and was preceded by clips of Stormzy recording the song.[11] On 10 November 2022, Stormzy released the album's second single, "Firebabe".[12]

This Is What I Mean was met with "generally favorable" reviews from critics. At Metacritic, which assigns a weighted average rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream publications, this release received an average score of 79, based on 14 reviews.[3]
Writing for Clash, James Mellen wrote that the record "is a low-key affair, downbeat and introspective" while the album's tracks are "intimate in theme as well as production", describing the album as "Stormzy’s cohesive and coherent project to date".[13] The Guardian's Alexis Petridis wrote that "This Is What I Mean sticks to subtlety and nuance" and that "it’s a mood that fits perfectly, even if it isn’t what people might be expecting".[16] Helen Brown for The Independent compared Stormzy to Donny Hathaway, stating that he "has a voice that can reach through the darkness and steady your heart". Brown wrote that the record "reflects all that in the way it puts Stormzy’s English vernacular afloat on a wider stage" while she praised the album's production.[17] Sam Moore for NME wrote that the album has a "largely mellow and mature tone", however, "there is a small sense of disappointment that we don’t get to hear Stormzy let loose on the mic more often". Moore concluded that "the hard-hitting lyricism is still present" and that "Stormzy continues to lead the way" in the UK rap scene.[18] Pitchfork's Will Pritchard wrote that on the record, "Stormzy is performing for an audience of one: God". He concluded that "Stormzy is able to open his lungs, not just to scream and shout, but to breathe, and sing" and that with This Is What I Mean, Stormzy is "at the height of his powers, both creative and otherwise".[19]
Rolling Stone UK's Emmanuel Onapa wrote that "This Is What I Mean marks a significant departure from his sound" and that throughout the record, Stormzy "provides a deeply personal and powerful reflection of the tranquillity, joy and blissfulness" which stems from his "Christian faith and as a black man navigating Britain". Onapa described the album as a "huge step forward" for the rapper while stating that it's a contender for album of the year.[20] The Telegraph's Neil McCormick wrote that the album "is a moody, introspective, emotional third album of love, loss and philosophical reconciliation". McCormick continued that the album is "melancholic yet hopeful, ruminatively apologetic, intensely intimate and sensitive to the point of fragility" and that the album "sacrifices the innate swagger of rap to expose" Stormzy's vulnerability.[21]
Will Hodgkinson of The Times described the album as a "major achievement" with atypical guest stars from "contemporary Afrobeat, soul and R&B",[22] while David Smyth of the Evening Standard called it Stormzy's "most downbeat, intimate collection" that "very much sounds like a team effort[, t]hough the feel is insular and understated". Smyth summarised the two main themes on the album as being Stormzy "hurting from a break-up" and "the need for the advancement of black culture as a whole".[14]

Commercial performance
This Is What I Mean debuted at number one on the UK Albums Chart, moving 27,800 album-equivalent units in its first week, becoming Stormzy's third consecutive number-one album.[4][28] The 27,800 units consisted of 13,977 CDs, 3,316 vinyl albums, 1,139 cassettes, 1,488 digital downloads and 7,954 sales-equivalent streams.[4]
The singles "Hide & Seek" and "Firebabe", along with another album track, charted on the UK Singles Chart: "Hide & Seek" (7), "Firebabe" (5), and "This Is What I Mean" (32). UK chart rules prevent artists from having more than three songs in the top 40 at once; Stormzy's album would have generated further entries in the countdown without these rules.[29]

Stormzy auf Wikipedia (oder andere Quellen):
Stormzy (* 26. Juli 1993 in London; eigentlicher Name Michael Omari) ist ein britischer Grime-Rapper.
Biografie
Michael Omari alias Stormzy ist ghanaischer Abstammung. In seiner Jugend spielte er in den Londoner Clubs in seiner Gegend vor allem Grimemusik. Später entwickelte er sich immer mehr auch zum Rapper. Ende 2013 begann er damit, seine Freestyle-Serie Wicked Skengman im Internet zu veröffentlichen. Er machte sich schnell einen Namen, auch mit seiner ersten EP Dreamers Disease, die 2014 erschien. Im selben Jahr wurde er bei den MOBO Awards als bester Grimemusiker ausgezeichnet.[1] Zum Jahreswechsel belegte er bei der jährlichen BBC-Prognose der erfolgversprechendsten Interpreten Sound of 2015 Platz 3.
Im März 2015 erschien mit Know Me From seine erste Single, die es in die britischen Charts schaffte. Die Nachfolgesingle Wicked Skengman 4 aus seiner Freestyle-Serie wurde sein erster Top-20-Hit. In diesem Jahr wurde er erneut als bester Grime Act und zusätzlich als bester Male Act bei den MOBO Awards ausgezeichnet. Im Dezember trat er mit seinem Song Shut Up bei einem Boxkampf von Anthony Joshua auf. Das Lied, das bis dahin nur Platz 59 der Charts erreicht hatte, stieg daraufhin in die Top 10, und es wurde eine Fankampagne gestartet, um es in der Weihnachtswoche auf Platz eins zu bringen.[2] Der Weihnachtshit hat in England eine besondere Bedeutung. Die Single kam jedoch nicht über Platz 8 hinaus.
Bei den Brit Awards 2017 trat er mit Ed Sheeran auf.[3]
Sein Debütalbum Gang Signs & Prayer erschien im Februar 2017 und erreichte Platz 1 der britischen Charts. Im Jahr darauf wurde er bei den Brit Awards für das Album des Jahres und als bester männlicher Künstler ausgezeichnet.
2018 stiftete Stormzy, der nicht studiert hat, zwei Stipendien für schwarze Studenten an der University of Cambridge, was nach Angaben der Universität sowohl zu einem starken Anstieg von Bewerbungen als auch von Zulassungen führte. Im Juni 2019 war er als erster schwarzer Künstler Headliner des Glastonbury Festivals. Das amerikanische Nachrichtenmagazin Time kürte ihn im Oktober 2019 zu einem der Next Generation Leaders des Jahres 2019.[4]
In diesem Jahr stand er zweimal an der Spitze der Singlecharts, im Mai mit dem eigenen Song Vossi Bop – mit 3-fach-Platin seine erfolgreichste Single – und vier Monate später als Gast von Ed Sheeran bei Take Me Back to London. Sein zweites Album Heavy Is the Head erschien zu Weihnachten 2019 und erreichte ebenfalls Platz 1 in England. Der Albumsong Own It, bei dem im Gegenzug Ed Sheeran Gast war, stieg Anfang 2020 an die Spitze und brachte ihn auch in den deutschsprachigen Ländern in die Charts. Bei den Brit Awards wurde er Anfang 2020 ein zweites Mal als bester britischer Künstler ausgezeichnet.
Im 2020 erschienenen Action-Adventure Watch Dogs: Legion tritt Stormzy als fiktionale Version seiner selbst auf, die die Songs Rainfall von Heavy Is the Head spielt.[5] Ansonsten wurde es während der COVID-19-Pandemie ruhig um ihn, zwei Jahre lang machte er sich rar und trat einige Zeit nur noch als Gastrapper in Erscheinung. Erst Ende 2022 gab es ein neues Album. Mit This Is What I Mean kam er Anfang Dezember zum dritten Mal auf Platz 1 der Albumcharts.
