Prix de la chanson pour Black
Visionary Award pour le chanteur Dave
The song award went to Dave for « Black », from his Number 1 album Psychodrama, which won the Mercury Prize and Brit Awards best album. « Black » came out of Dave’s frustration of hearing about a single black experience, ignoring all the different lives lived by black people in the UK and further afield:
« Look, black is beautiful, black is excellent
Black is pain, black is joy, black is evident »

George the poet
George a gagné le visionary award du meilleur journaliste/influenceur
The influencer/journalist award went to spoken-word poet and podcaster George the Poet. George Mpanga grew up on London housing estates with Ugandan parents. He studied at Cambridge University but chooses to use his talent to shine a spotlight on the lives of people shaped by the violence and poverty of the kind of neighbourhood where he was raised.
Vous pouvez également écouter les podcasts de George sur la BBC, un mélange de fiction, de musique et de réflexion sur la vie dans les banlieues. Des histoires d’amour, de travail, de parentalité, la vie de tous les jours.
