Not only that, Stormzy celebrates a major achievement and Ed Sheeran receives his copyright win costs. Tune into the latest episode of The Daily Lowdown below...Glastonbury Festival has officially opened its gates for the first time in two years.

Stormzy is a Doctor! The award-winning artist has expressed his gratitude after being awarded an Honorary degree from the University of Exeter. The Blinded By Your Grace star was recognised by the institution for his"outstanding achievement in the field of higher education, philanthropy and widening participation," particularly his Merky Foundation which tackles racial inequality in education and supports justice reform.

And Kate Bush has given a very rare interview in which she's spoken about the recent resurgence of her 1985 track, Running Up That Hill. The artist appeared on BBC Radio Four's Woman's Hour with Emma Barnett where she stated that landing the number one spot 37 years after its release was"just extraordinary". Kate added it was"wonderful" that Netflix's Stranger Things brought the song to a whole new audience and generation.
