" I still struggle to call myself a black Brit. I grew up here all My Life and I have strong ties here, but I'm also Nigerian" says Afolabi.
" There are times when This Country will remind you that we're Not Wanted and it makes me glad that I'm Nigerian because I have a community that I can still relate to, " says The 29-year-old.
" However, Stormzy 's Video really made me proud to call myself a black Brit. "
Afolabi was particularly excited to see all The Stars in The Video - from Talk Show hosts to.

" These people and so many more played a part in shaping me and Our Struggles and our joy are similar in One Way or another and that for me is what truly makes us black British, " says Afolabi.
The Track is named after Melissa Holdbrook-Akposoe, better know as influencer Melissa's Wardrobe - Stormzy 's stylist and CEO of It's a Lifestyle Hun.
Her impact has been highlighted on Social Media as well.
" Understanding Melissa's influence is not a surprise to me. I'm an invested fan so I was aware for a long time and has been aware of her affiliation with Big Mike , " says Afolabi.
" When Stormzy was on Instagram, she was always on The stories and look at The Amazing job she did for him at The Met Gala . The Core of us have known of Melissa and her influence for a long time, The mainstream are just catching up. "
