Have been enjoying Griff for the past 18 months or so!


FILTH.

Will the debut album be called 'Derails de Griff' ?

Griff is fifth

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-55361170

And an article on how last year's top 5 have fared in 2020, I'd say Yungblud has been the most successful out of them!

Sounds like Covid properly pushed back her career, which is a shame.

Celeste with Stop This Flame (used on the Sky Sports football coverage which is a big coup) and A Little Love has had a decent debut year, Yungblud made impact beyond just the music and beabadoobee had the massive success of Death Bed. Excited to see what this years nominees can achieve.

I'd say her debut album going top 10 was the big achievement for beabadoobee last year - death bed feels very distant from her own music.

“Anyone But Me” is worth checking out! Looks like the pandemic has derailed her career somewhat. : (

2004 was definitely a vintage year for Sound of... - Keane won it, Franz Ferdinand, Joss Stone, Wiley, Razorlight, McFly, Scissor Sisters and Ordinary Boys all made the longlist. Ten years on 2014 was also pretty prophetic: Sam Smith, Ella Eyre, Chance the Rapper, George Ezra, FKA Twigs and MNEK the most successful out of that year's lineup.

I did listen to her album and you are right it is a departure.

Joy Crookes is excellent, hopefully she'll release more in 2021. She has a few songs I've listened to quite a lot.

Easy Life had a fairly productive year and a shame they weren't able to capitalise further on a substantial live following, though I prefer their 2018-19 output than last years.

How certain is it that whoever wins BBC’s Sound of the year also gets the Critics Choice award at the Brits (or whatever it is called these days)?

Well it happened 6 out of 13 times the BRIT award has existed (Adele, Ellie Goulding, Jessie J, Sam Smith, Jack Garratt and Celeste), so about 50/50 magic.gif Although it's a 0% chance if the Sound of... winner isn't a British artist of course lol ~ (though that has only happened twice since the BRIT award's creation, for HAIM and Sigrid).

Greentea Peng at 4. Really like what I've heard by her, released a few singles in the last 12 months which I've enjoyed so hoping she can get some further mainstream success.

Yeah I think Alfie is definitely number 1 too. The only ones I’m surprised aren’t on there are Pa Salieu and Girl in Red. Thought they’d both be in the top 5!

Happy to see BERWYN up there, I listened to 'VINYL' again the other day and it's really growing on me, he has a ton of potential.

Holly Humberstone... exists ~

I am here for the predictable Alfie win cool.gif
