Well done Stormzy and Dua Lipa

[Croesy Blue]

Who are they? It's the first I've heard of them.

You’re just old and not up with what’s currently popular, no shame in that buy I always find it weird when people wear that as a badge of honour.

You couldn't be further away from the truth with that statement. I track a number of music critic rating sites, and they have never come up.

So you would have us believe that you've firmly got your finger on the pulse of what kids today like, yet have never heard of Stormzy before?

They are obviously not setting the global music scene alight, but I would have expected our Brit Award winners to have at least made some kind of impact on the world stage.

Ah right, it's their fault.

The top British acts usually have the international music scene sussed out, and they normally do well in the USA and beyond. Maybe we are slipping a bit?

Most recent British Male winners include Sheeran and Bowie, apart from them:

Ben Howard
James Bay
Plan B
Dizzee


Would you say these have done well in the USA?

Same question for the females, Adele and:

Emili Sande
Paloma Faith
Ellie Goulding
Laura Marlin
Lilly Allen

It looks to me Our Ed and Our Adele are the exceptions (Bowie is obviously Bowie)

So you're saying ed sheeran should have won?

I never said anything of the sort! Are you saying Liam Gallagher should have won?

[Rjk]

You were suggesting that making an impact on the world stage should be important for this award. Nobody has made a bigger impact than ed sheeran. Not my favourite but you can see why he's successful.

who do you think should have won then as you're so down with the kids?
