British rapper Stormzy was banned from driving for nine months on Thursday after admitting he drove his Rolls-Royce through London while using his phone.
The 31-year-old, whose real name is Michael Ebenazer Owuo Jr., is known for bringing the grime genre of rap into the commercial mainstream. His debut Gang Signs And Prayer won album of the year at the Brit Awards in 2018, where he was named best male British solo artiste - an honour he won again in 2020.
