The KA & GRM Daily Rated Awards returned for the second year last night, at Camden's Roundhouse, celebrating of the past year in British urban music and culture. With awards given out in over ten categories, Giggs took home arguably the biggest gong of the night for Best Artist and also closed out the show with a special performance, mobbing the stage with half the scene for Landlord highlight "Whippin Excursion".
Skepta made up for his no-show last year and was on-hand to claim the award for Best Video, with Kano taking home Best Album for Made In The Manor. AJ Tracey saw off stiff competition to claim Best Breakthrough Artist, with the biggest surprise of the night going down in the Best Mixtape category: Brixton Hill collective 67 claimed the prize for In Skengs We Trust. The last award of the night went to Tim Westwood, deservedly picking up the second GRM Legacy award.
