Last week (January 11), Jorja Smith and Stormzy’s collaborative track ‘Let Me Down’ premiered on Zane Lowe’s Beats 1 show.

Smith also told the radio DJ how the collaboration came about. “I was in the studio with Ed [Thomas], and he was playing the chords on the piano, and I was singing, and Stormzy kind of drifted in and out – that’s kind of what he does on the verse,” she said. “He literally floated onto the track and I feel like that’s how it sounds as well.”

In a press release, Smith, who has been named the Brits Critics Choice Award winner for 2018, added: “‘Let Me Down’ is about meaning very little to someone, but being okay with that, even though it hurts.”
