Michael Ward then introduced Dave to the stage for an emphatic, remixed performance of hit single ‘Black’ alongside Fraser T Smith. The ‘Streatham’ rapper first performed the usual track with the addition of a new section, drawing attention to racism in the UK, calling the prime minister, the inadequate response to the Grenfell tragedy, the Windrush scandal, the need for unity and less hatred and more.

Tyler, The Creator took home the award for Best International Solo Artist. In his acceptance speech, he shouted said: “I wanna give a special shout out to someone who I hold dear to my heart, who made it where I couldn’t come to this country five years ago. I know she’s at home pissed off. Thank you, Teresa May”.

Stormzy then delivered a live performance of a few tracks from Heavy is the Head. The set began with ‘Do Better’ before transitioning into ‘Wiley Flow’, with a bar at the end about ‘if you can’t sell out three O2’s, I don’t wanna hear no chats about numbers’. Next came ‘Own It’ alongside Burna Boy, who the performed ‘Anybody’. Stormzy then took over again to perform ‘Rainfall’ alongside Tiana Major 9.

Lewis Capaldi won Best New Artist but didn’t really give much of an acceptance speech. He walked on stage, sipped his drink, said something which saw the audio muted and then bopped off.

The Scottish singer scooped up the award for Best Song with ‘Someone You Loved’. The song was the biggest selling single of 2019 and spent seven weeks at the #1 spot in the UK charts. During his speech, he clarified that the song was not in fact about Paige Turley, a 2020 Love Island contestant, but actually his grandma, who he randomly thanked for dying.
