Would have been great to see him get a live performance on TV as well, he's incredible live. Would be great if Kate Tempest won it, such a hard, important exterior but a really gooey, positive core. Wouldn't be annoyed if Sampha, Stormzy, Loyle Carner or Glass Animals won it. As others have said though it's pretty unimportant now and generally only gets an eyebrow raise reaction or an eye roll reaction. Used to be a decent way to discover hidden gems and I'd look forward to listening through the albums, hasn't provided that service in years though.

dentalplan Posted July 27, 2017 Report Share Posted July 27, 2017 Pleased for TBM but wow that list is an eyesore. Not that I expect any different at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SighMo Posted July 27, 2017 Report Share Posted July 27, 2017 Some pretty decent acts on the list but a big omission for me would be The Moonlandingz; great new album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mardy Posted July 27, 2017 Report Share Posted July 27, 2017 Stormzy or Sampha for me, although it really is an utter irrelevance really. also, this seems like the right thread to say i can't fucking stand Kate Tempest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shocking they aren't on the list, utterly appalling in fact !! Same for Idles and Sleaford Mods. I gave up on it last year after Bowie and Kiwanuka lost to skepta. Travesty.

Let alone the fact Where Are We Now? was the better later Bowie album. I have a horrible suspicion they might give this to Blossoms. I'd like to see Glass Animals or the XX win it.

Blossoms would be a kick in the bollocks. Any of Glass Animals/XX/Sampha for me, preferably Sampha. Stormzy actually did a better job than I was expecting too. The 3 albums above were better though.

I second that. Met the bloke at Field Day which led to a very awkward interaction. I said hi and he asked if I saw his set. I told him I didnt and he said ''ahh, are you not a hip hop fan?''. I replied ''I'm a huge hip hop fan'' He just looked at me for a couple of seconds and then walked off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Met Julia Jacklin and the combination of having had a fair few beers and her shyness made for a weird conversation. Was also spotted by one of my secondary school teachers whilst smoking a joint outside the festival site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fatyeti24 Posted July 28, 2017 Report Share Posted July 28, 2017 It's about fucking time the fucking token fucking jazz album fucking won this fucking thing. That and the track they played from it being the best thing I heard on the radio yesterday when they announced the nominees. Alas, as has been the case for the last few years, I am utterly unfamiliar with any album on the list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no right thread to say you can't stand Kate Tempest. Go sit on the naughty step and think about what you've just said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
