I love this list. I hope Laura Marling gets it because she's one of my favorite artists, but PR, Dua Lipa, Georgia, and Kiwanuka are all deserving IMO.
Super list. I can see merit in it all, even if it’s lot all to my taste. Kiwanuka or Marling are my two favourite albums off it but I have to think that Stormzy is the odds on favourite given his last year or two.
I am a little bit disappointed that it didn’t bring more of the strange, the mercury prize is known for having a chunk of left field picks and that’s not that case this year. The BPI does also run the Brits for the more obvious pop picks...
