The first edition was in 2003. Since then artists such as Keane (2004), Corinne Bailey Rae (2006), Mika (2997), Adele (2008) and Jessie J last year were distinguished.
But there were other artists that are now very famous that didn't won: Florance and The Machine stayed in third place 3 years ago. In that same year Lady Gaga deserved the 6th. Last year James Blake was placed in second.
This year the winner is Michael Kiwanuka.
He is a soul musician of Ugandan heritage who was born in England.
He supported Adele on her Adele Live 2011 tour and her iTunes Festival gig also in 2011.
His debut EP Tell Me A Tale was released last year, in June. His first album will be released this year at the end of March and will be titled as Home Again.
His music is very calm, very "soul". Let's hope to see more of him. He has now the lights pointed at him.
Here is his single Home Again:
