Listen to Stormzy’s New Wiley Diss Track “Still Disappointed”
Stormzy has shared “Still Disappointed,” a new track dissing grime MC Wiley. It’s the latest salvo in the week-long battle between the godfather of grime and the UK’s biggest MC that has spawned what is now four diss tracks. In this latest video, Stormzy sips from a coffee mug and chastises the men in Wiley’s family for their inability to protect their women. Check out all four of the tracks below.
The feud started in earnest with Wiley’s diss track “Eediyat Skengman 1,” which pokes at the “WICKEDSKENGMAN” freestyles that Stormzy rode to fame in the early ’10s. Stormzy responded with “Disappointed,” trolling Wiley’s grime purist sensibilities with a drill instrumental from Headie One and RV’s “Know Better.” Wiley targeted Stormzy’s family with his response “Eediyat Skengman 2,” rapping “I've done more for you than your dad” and “If I see your mom down on Croydon Market/I’m gonna rip that weave off her head.” Stormzy starts off “Still Disappointed” with the suggestion that he’s done with the battle (“One more dub, then it’s back to business”), but a recent Instagram post from Wiley suggests he’s got more in the tank.
Update (01/10 2:09 p.m. Eastern): Wiley has responded to “Still Disappointed” with another diss track “Eediyat Skengman 3.” Stream it below via Apple Music.
The beef comes less than a month after the release of Stormzy’s second album Heavy is the Head, which features the reverential “Wiley Flow.” In 2017, Wiley praised Stormzy from the red carpet at the BRIT Awards, saying “he's pushed different doors, different barriers that needed to be pushed.”
