November 27, 20168 yr Author Have Disciples not had a top 3 hit? The MTV list don't have any rules regarding UK hits i think, Sigala was on there last year!
November 28, 20168 yr Author and it's here~ BBC SOUND OF 2017 ~ AJ Tracey ~ Anderson .Paak ~ Cabbage ~ Dave ~ Declan McKenna ~ Jorja Smith ~ Maggie Rogers ~ Nadia Rose ~ Rag'n'Bone Man ~ Ray BLK ~ RAYE ~ Stefflon Don ~ The Amazons ~ The Japanese House ~ Tom Grennan sigh @ the lack of Bonzai
November 28, 20168 yr Yeah it's full of urban acts this year. Anderson .Paak to win please, 'Malibu' is in my top 5 records of 2016. Also have been a fan of all of Jorja Smith, The Japanese House, Ray BLK, Raye and Nadia Rose for a while now so would love to see all them do well. I think Rag N' Bone Man is the obvious frontrunner though. I need to hear more than just 'Human' from him to decide if he will actually be able to get more hits under his belt.
November 28, 20168 yr Based on what I've heard of Raye and Nadia Rose ('By Your Side'/'Shhh' and 'Crank It (Woah)' resp.) hopefully they do well.
November 28, 20168 yr Let's hope whoever wins does better than last year's winner who had no top 40 singles and an album that only scraped silver.
November 28, 20168 yr Just listened to Nimmo for the first time there and I'm so shocked they weren't included tbh. They sound like Years & Years, La Roux and London Grammar all mixed together. Sounds right up Radio 1's street.
November 28, 20168 yr I'm gonna put myself out there and predict: 5. AJ Tracey 4. Tom Grennan 3. Jorja Smith 2. Declan McKenna 1. Rag N' Bone Man I'm gonna be so gutted if I'm right and Anderson misses out though.
November 28, 20168 yr Let's hope whoever wins does better than last year's winner who had no top 40 singles and an album that only scraped silver. Jack Garratt is not your usual chart pop act. All his singles were fantastic and he was a well deserved winner.
November 28, 20168 yr It feels odd seeing Anderson .Paak on there, I feel like he's already quite established? I thought he might've been on it last year to be honest, would've coincided well with the release of 'Malibu'. Still, good to see him on there. Great to see Raye there too, saw her a few weeks ago and she blew me away.
November 28, 20168 yr See I know Jack Garratt isn't a big chart act but he doesnt feel like it was his year like Years And Years, Sam Smith etc have had in the past. Only found two of singles (The Love Your Given and Weathered amazing :wub:) and the album was quite meh felt not as good as it could have been so I wouldnt say imho a good winner but then again no one really did amazing last year in terms of Sound Of nominees
December 2, 20168 yr BRITs Critics' Choice nominees revealed as Anne-Marie, Dua Lipa and Rag'n'Bone Man! All excellent choices :D
December 2, 20168 yr Agreed. Hopefully Anne-Marie wins it as I have liked all her songs. Have a feeling it will be Rag "n" Bone Man though as he isn't as mainstream as the other two
December 2, 20168 yr I think it's more likely to be a female artist, and it's hard to pick between Anne-Marie and Dua Lipa, but I think 2017 holds out more hope for Anne-Marie after her chart success on Rockabye so I'm going to predict she gets it. :)
December 3, 20168 yr Top 6 from the Sound Of nominees list (in no particular order) Declan McKenna Jorja Smith Anderson .Paak Cabbage Rag 'n' Bone Man The Amazons
December 3, 20168 yr In terms of success, Anne-Marie is the probably the safest bet but Dua has shown that she could easily have a huge hit. Rag'n'bone Man will be a one hit wonder
