THE biggest night in the British music calendar is upon us, with stars and fans alike heading to the O2 Arena tomorrow to find out who is the most proficient in pop. As ever, the Brits are about sales success, so it should be pretty obvious who the winners will be. Or is it? Let’s have a closer look at the biggest prize categories.
BRITISH GROUP
Who will win? The 1975
Twice winners in this category, the indie pop behemoths should make it a comfortable third against an off-the-boil Arctic Monkeys and three upstart newcomers. Their last album was a return to form as well as a fifth straight number one.
Who should win? Nova Twins
The Brits have been under a lot of pressure to be more inclusive, so what better way to show that this is a broad church than to give a major prize to two mixed heritage women who make cacophonous electro-metal? Supernova, the second album from Amy Love and Georgia South, is a blast.
SONG OF THE YEAR
Who will win?
Sam Smith & Kim Petras — Unholy
There are always 10 hit singles in this category rather than the usual five nominees, so it’s tough to rise above the rest, but this humid sex party theme tune is so ludicrous that it leaves the others behind. It was named Best Pop Duo/Group Performance at the Grammys, and was a US number one, and the Brits love a big seller.
Who should win? Eliza Rose & Interplanetary Criminal — B.O.T.A. (Baddest of Them All)
