Just one more day to go until the return of GRM Daily’s Iconic Rated Awards. However, this time for a virtual celebration due to the global pandemic. Prepare to tune in live on Wednesday the 9th of September 2020 7pm BST, broadcasted exclusively on YouTube. Hosted by award winning comedian Mo Gilligan and radio presenter Julie Adenuga.
GRM Daily’s 5th year running a significant celebration of talented Black British musicians. Lookout for exclusive live performances from the industry’s greatest superstars featuring: Kano, Dizzee Rascal, George The Poet, Abra Cadabra, M Huncho and many others.
I can highly appreciate the Rated Awards as it illustrates cultured realism. It is rewarding and appreciative of urban British talent like nowhere else. The Rated awards were founded by GRM Daily, a life-changing platform for some of the biggest UK’s superstars today.
It is not by surprise that international superstar Stormzy leads the nominations with four nominations each in Track of the year, video of the year, male artist and prestigious album of the year. Well deserved recognition of Stormzy’s merit.
It has been an astonishing year for each artist regarding chart progression and numerous successes. Despite this, many are strongly challenged by Headie One, Kano, J Hus, AJ Tracey, Krept & Konan and many other successful artists.
