“It sounds mad now - we’ve been doing signings, I did a signing in Bristol, I’ve got a signing tonight and I always just stay in my slippers. And then I got in the car and I was like, ah! I haven’t got my trainers. Sorry.”
The Big For Your Boots rapper was also asked about the line in his new track Disappointed in which he says: “I can’t tweet, I’m too reckless/I’m too BBC Breakfast.”
Stormzy said:“I’ve become a mainstream act as well as being an MC and a rapper, and sometimes even like being here and being a kind of popular face can sometimes be weaponised against me.
“And I said no I’ll embrace that, I’m BBC Breakfast, I’ll take that all day.”
The grime star has recently become embroiled in a public feud with rival act Wiley.
Wiley has criticised Stormzy on social media for his collaborations with Ed Sheeran, and claimed the only reason Jay-Z wanted to work with him was because of Sheeran.
On his diss track Eediyat Skengman Wiley raps: “You never cared about grime, you just used it / Worse than Ed with your watered down music.”

He goes on: “I’m not mad I’m disappointed.”
