[Shaun]

Confirmed acts include Mark Ronson, Nelly, Tinie Tempah, JLS, Jay Sean, Taio Cruz, Tinchy Stryder, Professor Green and N-Dubz, with Peter Andre, Michelle Williams and Rochelle Wiseman presenting awards.

it's like these people are conspiring to try and offend me as much as possible.

[Locke.]

Nelly's new song is good :nono:

[Shaun]

oh he's easily the best in that bad list.

[Stephanie]

i like the mobo's. it's more my taste of music.

[Wildcat!]

At l;east Nelly is still doing real music. It seems everyone is selling out, with the electronic stuff these days. I mean Even Akon?? Known for his unique voice, he is into that Shayte too now.
BUt biggup to Nelly for still making music. Youre right his Just a dream song is probably the only decent song I have heard in a while.

[Stephanie]

The only thing Mobo has become good for is to highlight how truly crap UK music has become. Most of these acts are more pop than anything. Gaaa todays music scene infuriates me so bad! :cloud:

[Stephanie]

jay sean is rubbish.

[Iceman]

The only thing Mobo has become good for is to highlight how truly crap UK music has become. Most of these acts are more pop than anything. Gaaa todays music scene infuriates me so bad! :cloud:

[Iceman]

It's a he.....

He released She Said, Stay Too Long, Prayin' and The Recluse....... his album The Defamation of Strickland banks is a concept album as are his videos and it's been in the top 10 of the charts almost every week since January :D (I'm not obsessed I swear! :D)

[Iceman]

:elephant::dance: Happy days, finally some recognition

[Ithinkiloveyoutoo]

Now Damage ruled! JLS suck.

[Iceman]

[Smithy]

She was just like sat there, talking about Jazz music.

D:

What did she say?

[Stephanie]

Steph, did he pick up the award in person?
no :(

[Iceman]

no :(

ah right I think he's touring the Uk at the minute..... have to wait until Feb before he comes here again :(

[Stephanie]

D:

What did she say?
can't remember, just something about sometimes jazz can be cheesy but the person she was talking about made sure it wasn't or something like that :joker::joker:

[Stephanie]

ah right I think he's touring the Uk at the minute..... have to wait until Feb before he comes here again :(
yeah he said he was busy touring so he couldn't pick it up, but he thanked everyone :)

[Iceman]

yeah he said he was busy touring so he couldn't pick it up, but he thanked everyone :)

Hope he gets the other one he's nommed for, deffo needs to be recognised as one of Britains best talents of the past year.

[GiRTh]

Yay Beverley Trottman is up for this award.

[Stephanie]

Hope he gets the other one he's nommed for, deffo needs to be recognised as one of Britains best talents of the past year.
yep, he deserves it :)

he's up against dizzee though for it so :nono::p

[Stephanie]

this guy was funny :L

[Iceman]

yep, he deserves it :)

he's up against dizzee though for it so :nono::p

Dizze just shouts.......PlanB sings, raps and has a nice and soulful voice.

[Stephanie]

Dizze just shouts.......PlanB sings, raps and has a nice and soulful voice.
:nono:

i do agree that plan b has a nice soulful voice though, i could listen to it allll day.

[Ithinkiloveyoutoo]

Can I just say most of these acts winning and performing are the ones most likely to win brits. It's unfair to let them now dominate awards that wasn't so commercially driven before. :shrug:

[Stephanie]

i love the dubstep bit in this song.

[Iceman]

:nono:

i do agree that plan b has a nice soulful voice though, i could listen to it allll day.

haha Plan B's next album will be huge, the Ballad Of Bellmarsh is coming :devil:

[GiRTh]

Dizze just shouts.......PlanB sings, raps and has a nice and soulful voice.Idont agree with that at all. All rappers have their own style. You could say Ghostface Killa only shouts yet he'll go down as one of the best of all time

[Stephanie]

haha Plan B's next album will be huge, the Ballad Of Bellmarsh is coming :devil:
eeek, i can't wait <3

[Stephanie]

i love dizzee's style. you can just recognise it so easy, it's not just the same old thing.

[Stephanie]

ew. jls.

[Stephanie]

this song is actually vile.

[Jordan.]

JLS must be embarrassed to know they only win because of little 12 year olds.

[Iceman]

Idont agree with that at all. All rappers have their own style. You could say Ghostface Killa only shouts yet he'll go down as one of the best of all time

True, but Dizzee isn't versatile. I meant in my comparison that Plan B has a whole different range when he Sings and Raps, sometimes it's hard to know it's him....

[GiRTh]

I'm gonna say it -Rochelle Wiseman is a dog. Easily the worst looking one in the Sats.

[GiRTh]

True, but Dizzee isn't versatile. I meant in my comparison that Plan B has a whole different range when he Sings and Raps, sometimes it's hard to know it's him....When Dizzee was young he struggled with many beats cuz of his slightly staccato style. I think his style makes him quite unique but I wish he was less of a record company puppet and be more versatile.

You're right though Plan B can sing and rap as well.

[Stephanie]

who are these people?

[Ithinkiloveyoutoo]

who is the guy on the guitar. He looks like Jesus Luz. Caliente papi:amazed:

[Stephanie]

i'm getting confused who's winning now

[GiRTh]

[King Gizzard]

He sounds like hes mentally hanicapped when he raps, like hes searching for things to say, and well, there are just millions better than him

[Stephanie]

[GiRTh]

WTF is Alesha wearing?

[Iceman]

someone throw a shoe at him

[Stephanie]
