MOBOs - The After Shock

So those of you that watched the show may have noticed something......two of the UK's best selling 'Urban' artists, Dizzee Rascal and Tinchy Stryder didn't win any awards.....does that shock you?


Well it definitely shocked Tinchy Stryder, who looked set to win at least one MOBO award. He took to Twitter to express his views:

"So I didnt win a mobo after havin da highest selling urban single of the year and sellin over 1million singles this year, cool. F the MOBOs" - statement of the year

Quite a lot of people agreed that Tinchy and Dizzee should've at least won an award and have set up a Twitition (Twitter Petition) 'Tinchy Stryder + Dizzee Rascal got PARRED, set up by journalist Chantelle Fiddy.

I do agree that with all the success both Tinchy and Dizzee have had over the past year they should've won an award....however we need to remember how nominees win......the public vote for them.

Not winning a MOBO isn't the end of the world....loads of talented acts haven't won MOBOs.

  2. Tinchy's comment is a bit harsh innit?
