Stormzy has just gone and dropped a new tune into our ears, titled Wiley Flow, and fans are absolutely losing it after the two rappers engaged in a little debate over Ed Sheeran recently.
On Sunday night the grime artist released the banger, which has already created an earworm with fans, but many were left wondering whether it was a diss or a tribute.
The track opened with the camera following Stormzy, 25, through corridors, as the voice of Wiley, 40, said: ‘Bruv, I didn’t look at it this way before, but as I approach my birthday, all you man are my youngers.’
Stormzy then launches into his rap, with the opening line: ‘If you can’t do 10K first week then I don’t wanna hear no chat about numbers.’
He then referenced Wiley’s line about being his ‘youngers’ before adding further into the first verse: ‘So please man let’s just be adults.’
The rapper, surrounded by pals in the clip, added he was the GOAT (greatest of all time) before referencing his Rolex – which may be a reference to Wiley’s hit.
The whole thing was a nod to Wiley’s legacy, though, with the title and the chorus lyric: ‘And now I hit you n***** with the Wiley flow…’
Some fans wondered if it was a thinly-veiled dig, with one asking in the comments: ‘Is this a diss? Seems half diss and half love…’.
This is no diss track though with Wiley already praising Stormzy’s tune, as he shared a clip along with the caption: ‘My brudda 4 life @stormzy.’
He was met with just as much love, as Stormzy replied: ‘Always love and respect legend #homage.’
It came after Stormzy and Wiley both locked horns after the former collaborated with Ed on Take Me Back To London recently.
The Wearing My Rolex rapper took a second to brand the decision for the Thinking Out Loud singer to appear on a grime track ‘weird’, before Stormzy defended Ed.
Any diss in Stormzy’s song was quickly disputed, as one listener slammed the idea: ‘This ain’t a diss at all, this is him paying tribute to a living legend.’
It comes after last month Wiley made his feelings known on Ed and Stormzy’s collab, after he slid into the comments underneath Stormzy’s Instagram post promoting their clip and wrote: ‘Oh s*** so now Ed you wanna do grime yeah f***in ell mate (sic),’ beside all of the cry-laughing emojis.
But the Shut Up rapper was quick to jump to the singer’s defence, replying: ‘No Wiley you know Ed been doing this from early, been a real one from early, can’t question that.
‘You know I love you and respect you brother but nah don’t do that.’
The Heatwave star still wasn’t convinced, as he responded: ‘Bro I’m gonna be honest with you, same love and respect but sadly it’s 2019 my brudda, and for real, I am saying it’s sounding very weird, Ed on grime.’
Emphasising his point, he added ‘all respect due’, and the 100 emoji.
And now we have a song clearing all the air. Happy?
