Chase & Status will receive the Producer of the Year award

Is this something that actually gets recognised at the ceremony? I think I remember Fred Again won it in like 2020 but I don’t recall him accepting the award on the night.

Yes it was David Guetta that won last year. Fatboy Slim presented the award to him.

However I don't think Fred again in 2020 or Inflo in 2022 went up to get their awards perhaps because they weren't there. I'm assuming because it's no longer a nominated category that if they're not in attendance then they won't be presented the award on stage.

I think Producer of the Year is generally not be acknowledged on the TV broadcast unless it's a big artist (I remember Calvin Harris having the award presented to him on air once iirc?) - I guess C&S probably will have it presented especially as they're obviously there to perform.

Songwriter of the Year was introduced 2 years ago but it's another one that doesn't get publicised as much and doesn't have a shortlist. Ed Sheeran and Kid Harpoon won it the last 2 years.

Still think the BRITS should bring back the Outstanding Contribution award for certain people who have been influential but long overlooked (Kate Bush, Rolling Stones, Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin, Raduiohead - How the hell did Pink get one over any of them?).

You could award it just before the newer Global Icon award so you get a big name semi-contemporary performer (like Kylie) to close the show.

Quite simply because her label bought it for her!

And that, right there, is why the awards never get taken seriously.

Not that I’d doubt that the label bought the award for her, but people are so quick to do down Pink at any given moment. To have still been relevant that far into her career as a solo female is an outstanding achievement and plenty of artists have been influenced by her. Just because you think someone else deserved it first doesn’t mean that she didn’t deserve it.

At the end of the day, it’s another round of music snobbery.

I am not working in the industry and don't have the insight in that sense, but award shows always seem to me like big puzzles - who is active, who is not, who is available, who is not, who is willing to actually put on a performance and who is not.... Who knows how many options the BRIT organization go through each year.

What baffles me is that they seem to have gap years with these "lifetime achievement" awards for some reason. There are plenty of stars out there who DESERVE it (like the ones Severin mentioned).

I’d agree here.

From the females who debuted across my generation she’s easily sustained longevity across the longest span (I’d say her and Beyoncé have remained consistently relevant) yet P!nk is always downplayed and never mentioned amongst the main females in the game when she’s more than worthy of receiving accolades like that BRIT.

Surprised Dua only sang Training Season! Was expecting at least a snippet of Houdini!

I’m surprised she performed just that. I was expecting her to sneak in Houdini or DTN. Shame she didn’t perform IDGAF in 2018 when it was a strong contender for #1
