Stormzy has announced that he will fund two black British students to go to the University of Cambridge.
The Stormzy Scholarship will pay for tuition fees and provide a maintenance grant for up to four years of an undergraduate course.
The rapper says: “It’s so important for black students, especially, to be aware that it can 100% be an option to attend a university of this calibre.”
The rapper will fund two students this year and two in 2019.
Explaining why he set up the scholarship, Stormzy tells Radio 1 Newsbeat: “In school and college I had the ability and was almost destined to go to one of the top universities.
“But that didn’t happen for myself… so hopefully there’s another young black student out there that can have that opportunity through my scholarship.”
He adds: “I always said that there’s a whole bunch of academically brilliant, excellent students who also need an incentive.”
Cambridge has been criticised for not admitting many pupils from a black, Asian and minority ethnic (BAME) background.
In June, the university asked for help from schools and parents to increase the number of black British students it enrols.
It was after the Financial Times found that some Cambridge colleges didn’t take in any black students from 2012 to 2016.
The university says that it admitted 58 black students on to undergraduate courses in 2017.
“We’re going to have young black students who are academically brilliant and smashing it, and they should just have that opportunity to walk into a university like Cambridge,” says Stormzy.

The Royal Mail is launching a trial of the UK’s first ever parcel postboxes.
Small businesses and marketplace sellers will be able to post pre-paid parcels through securely designed parcel postboxes, in the same way that they currently post a letter.
The Royal Mail said it will be the first potential major change of use for the postbox in its last 160 years of existence.
With a wider aperture and secure design for mailing larger items, the parcel postboxes make the posting of larger pre-paid parcels safe and convenient, said the Royal Mail.
The trial launches on Monday in Northampton and Leicester, and will run until November.

Labour’s housing minister has called on the Government to fund Croydon Council’s “essential” project to install sprinklers in the borough’s tallest buildings.
Sarah Jones, MP for Croydon Central, launched a national campaign calling on the Government to deliver funding promised to councils in the wake of the Grenfell Tower fire.
More than 740 flats have been successfully retrofitted with sprinkler systems so far in Croydon as part of an installation programme for the council’s 25 tallest blocks and one eight-storey sheltered housing block.
Croydon Council has requested a Government contribution to its sprinkler programme three times, all of which have been rejected. The council has allocated £10m upfront from its housing maintenance budget.
Ms Jones said: “It’s unacceptable that more than a year after the Grenfell tragedy, the Government are withholding the support they promised to councils for essential fire safety works.”
