Stormzy put on a very powerful performance on Glastonbury's Pyramid Stage in a Union Jack stab-proof vest on Friday night.
The musician, 25, who has made history as the first British rapper to headline the festival, started his show with Know Me From complete with flames and fireworks.
During his explosive performance, the grime artist featured a small clip of Jay Z offering him advice prior to his show and led the thousands of spectators through a call-and-response chorus.

The rapper, who kept his stab-proof vest on for his first five songs, also displayed a series of crime statistics in his third song First Things First.
Stormzy - whose real name is Michael Ebenazer Kwadjo Omari Owuo Jr. - then brought on two ballet dancers for his song Don't Cry For Me to highlight the racism that was found across all walks of life.
During their performance a screen behind the ballet dancers read: 'Ballet shoes have not traditionally been made to match black skin tones. Until now.
'Previously ballet dancers 'pancaked' their shoes with makeup. Now there are ballet shoes to match all skin tones. A huge leap forward for inclusion in the ballet world.'

The rapper, who was also joined by a gospel choir and Coldplay's Chris Martin, is the first black British artist to headline at Glastonbury and the second youngest artist to headline in festival's 49-year history.
Hours before his performance the rapper wrote on Twitter: 'I am the first black British artist to headline Glastonbury.
'At 25 years old I am the second youngest solo act to ever headline Glastonbury, the youngest being a 24 year old David Bowie in 1971. I’m overwhelmed with emotions, this is the most surreal feeling I’ve ever experienced.
'I feel my entire life has lead to this moment. Can’t explain or fathom what this all is but I am 100% sure this is all God and his favour. Giving him all the glory.
'Thank you to Emily & Mike Eavis for believing in me I can’t wait to see you and hug you both thank you so much.'
