November 7, 201113 yr Here's a list of names that I think are in with a chance: Azealia Banks Etta Bond Fixers Frank Ocean (not many people seem to mentioning him here...) Friends Jess Mills Lianne La Havas Mz Bratt (not sure if being on the CIN single would rule her out though) Neon Hitch Niki & the Dove Rachel Furner Rusko Skrillex Sneakbo Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs Tribes True Tiger Unicorn Kid Jess Mills, Tribes and T.E.E.D. are near-certainties imo
November 7, 201113 yr Spector, The Good Natured, Alex Winston, Kyla La Grange and Oh My! are my predictions. I'm hoping someone like Florrie or Spark make an appearance but I'm trying not to get my hopes up. You do have to laugh at Jessie J winning this last year, considering the pile of cack she delivered as an album.
November 7, 201113 yr I would say Lauren Bennett, but she's on PRA (i.e a Top 20 hit), and she's in the new line up for Pussycat Dolls
November 7, 201113 yr They don't usually include bands with an album already out, non? They included Warpaint last year and they already had an album. Here's a list of names that I think are in with a chance: Azealia Banks Etta Bond Fixers Frank Ocean (not many people seem to mentioning him here...) Friends Jess Mills Lianne La Havas Mz Bratt (not sure if being on the CIN single would rule her out though) Neon Hitch Niki & the Dove Rachel Furner Rusko Skrillex Sneakbo Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs Tribes True Tiger Unicorn Kid Jess Mills, Tribes and T.E.E.D. are near-certainties imo :wub: I hope TEED makes the list, 'Household Goods' is fantastic. I was going to mention Lianne La Havas but I didn't know if there was any hype behind her at all. Edited November 7, 201113 yr by Bré
November 7, 201113 yr Wretch 32 will make it on but he's not going to get any further than, say, Devlin levels of success. This was a post made by Tirren last year. Actual LOL. :rofl:
November 7, 201113 yr Author Lianne La Havas is a CERT. Major label deal, getting the feeler singles/gigs out there etc at the moment.
November 7, 201113 yr Florrie has to make it. I think she has enough buzz. She's the only new act I care about that has a chance of making it! I'd love Oh My! and Spark to get on there but I don't see it.
November 7, 201113 yr Florrie has to make it. I think she has enough buzz. She's the only new act I care about that has a chance of making it! I'd love Oh My! and Spark to get on there but I don't see it. I'm sure all 3 of those were listed by loads of people as 'possibles' for the 2011 list.
November 7, 201113 yr They were but Florrie has came along a lot since then (she released a new EP and she has one coming before the end of the year) so there's potential for her. Spark has no real chance but I live in hope and I think Oh My! are too new to have been on last year's list?
November 7, 201113 yr I think Rita Ora is a big shout - she's not released anything yet, but she's on RocNation, but handled by the same people as Jessie J and Ellie Goulding, supposedly launched in 2012.
November 7, 201113 yr Little Boots. Oh wait.... I think Kate McGill and Bastille may make the long list.
November 8, 201113 yr I'd say Jess Mills, but R1 have already playlisted some of her material - so it'd be a bit silly to try and promote the artist a second time around. There's no one that I think will appear on the longlist - the likes of Delilah and Maverick Sabre have both now become intelligible.
November 8, 201113 yr I'm really not good at predicting that, my sources for "undergound" music are quite poor :lol: I should check a few of the names dropped in this thread though, who are the most interesting ones ?
November 8, 201113 yr This was a post made by Tirren last year. Actual LOL. :rofl: Bearing in mind I'd only heard demos at that time I wouldn't say it was that strange an expectation! Spector, The Good Natured, Alex Winston, Kyla La Grange and Oh My! are my predictions. I'm hoping someone like Florrie or Spark make an appearance but I'm trying not to get my hopes up. You do have to laugh at Jessie J winning this last year, considering the pile of cack she delivered as an album. Oh My! should also be certs actually thinking about it - there was an article on the BBC I think about them and War of Words as up and coming girl duos that are masterminded by existing pop acts (i.e. Example and half of La Roux). Jessie J winning wasn't that surprising given it was judged entirely off the sampler, which was brilliant to be fair.
November 8, 201113 yr I'd say Jess Mills, but R1 have already playlisted some of her material - so it'd be a bit silly to try and promote the artist a second time around. Prior Radio 1 support is usually a good indication they'll be on there, not a reason they'll be left off.
November 8, 201113 yr who are the most interesting ones ? Azealia Banks and Oh My! in my opinion, check out 212 by the former and Kicking And Screaming by the latter :P
November 8, 201113 yr Surely if Skrillex is nominated he'll walk this? I wanted to say that but stood aside for fears of people calling me stupid because I'm always wrong about these things. He does seem like an incredibly obvious winner.
