A huge painted mural of London grime rapper Stormzy was unveiled in Dublin's Smithfield in recent days, and it's already garnered quite the reaction online.
The Londoner kicks off his tour at Dublin's Olympia Theatre tonight, and the artwork - which was painted by a group called Subset, who took their inspiration from Stormzy's 'Shut Up' video - has already been tweeted out by the 'Gang Signs & Prayer' man.
See the Twitter reaction below:

Isn't it gas that Stormzy mural gone up in Smithfield, where 95% of people probably complain about black taxi drivers
