Little Simz has been announced as the winner of the 2022 Mercury Prize.
The 28-year-old British artist won for her fourth studio album, Sometimes I Might Be Introvert.
The announcement was made during a live ceremony, which recognises the best British album of the year, at the Eventim Apollo in Hammersmith, west London, on Tuesday evening.
Simz, born Simbiatu Ajikawo, fended off competition from 11 other acts, including Leeds-based post-punks Yard Act, North Shields rock singer Sam Fender, and pop singer Harry Styles.
“Wow, I’m very overwhelmed, I’m very grateful, glory to God, thank you so much,” Simz said, accepting her award. “To my family over here, my loved ones right here. I want to say a huge thank you to the Mercury for this incredible prize.”
She continued: “I want to say thank you to my brother and close collaborator Inflo... he’s known me since I was so young,...

As anyone who failed to get within hearing distance of Wolf Alice at Reading 2022 will tell you, alternative rock is having a moment (again). Key to the acclaim and success in this new wave, which should really be called all-wave, is to encompass a wide variety of indie and pop styles past and present, thereby befuddling the almighty algorithm into recommending you to everyone.
Which makes London’s Sports Team the natural successors to Wolf Alice. A fiercely ambitious bunch – they booked an early gig at the Scala back when their entire social media following combined wouldn’t have filled the place, but still sold it out – their shows are colourful affairs, often involving costume box outfits, hand-painted cardboard cats and coach trips to Margate. Their music is just as unpredictable. Debut album Deep Down Happy hit No 2 in 2020 on the strength of a smorgasbord of quirky, quickfire songs running...

Sam Fender, Little Simz, and Harry Styles are among the artists shortlisted for the 2022 Mercury Prize.
The shortlist was unveiled in July, comprising 12 albums – from rap and jazz to indie and Cornish folk-rock – that will compete for the coveted award at a ceremony held this September.
This year’s entries are among the most eclectic in recent years. Little Simz is shortlisted for the second time with her critically adored Sometimes I Might Be Introvert, following on from her nod in 2019 for Grey Area.
Rock singer Sam Fender receives his debut nomination for his second LP, Seventeen Going Under, as does pop star Harry Styles, who has been shortlisted for his third studio album, Harry’s House. His record is arguably the most “pure pop” album to be shortlisted since Ed Sheeran’s controversial nomination in 2017.
First-time nominees make up most of this year’s nominees, following last year’s shortlist which included 10 debuts.

Everyone likes everything now. In the years since streaming began to dominate listening habits, this twisted mantra has taken over the music industry, driven more by the desire for some algorithmic utopia than reality. Because everyone has access to everything, the theory goes, they must automatically like it all. It’s a credo at the very core of the mindset of the new look, pop-leaning Reading & Leeds festival. And today, everyone-likes-everything-now (Elen) comes up against its ultimate test.
When Rage Against The Machine pulled out of headlining Sunday’s line-up for health reasons, according to the Elen Theory, all of the Rage fans must naturally welcome replacements The 1975 with open arms. “We heard you!” the announcement tweet read, as though the country’s politico punk metal fans had taken to the streets en masse to demand the immediate instigation of a millennial Go West in Rage’s place. Instead Ratm’s fans,...

A cost-of-living crisis has hit Reading Festival. The age of the £15 burrito has dawned, and judging by the cost of the average greasy burger out in the main arena, you’d be within your rights to demand it served wrapped in gold leaf and salted down the forearm of a charlatan. The catering is priced, we’ll assume, to reflect the fact that Saturday represents what would once be a full weekend at Reading crushed into twelve hours. The traditional indie, metal and punk days piled on top of each other to be consumed in quick-fire bites.
On the morning of the festival, organisers Festival Republic are still cramming on suitable acts like expensive and unnecessary burger toppings. Hardcore screamers Wargasm turn up unexpectedly to open Main Stage East and Pendulum announce a secret set in the dance stage. Back on the advertised programme, in early afternoon both The Sherlocks...

Wolf Alice appeared on The Tonight Show to perform “The Last Man on Earth,” an ethereal song that appeared on the band’s most recent album, Blue Weekend.
In the clip, the camera circles singer Ellie Rowsell as she sings the evocative song, backed by a small choir and the rest of Wolf Alice.
Blue Weekend marked the follow-up to 2018’s Mercury Prize-winning Visions of a Life. Following a rigorous tour, the band began working on demos in a converted church, which served as the basis for the Markus Dravs-produced album.

Wolf Alice have won the 2018 Hyundai Mercury Prize. The annual award is bestowed on the best British album of the past year as chosen by an independent panel of music journalists and music industry members.
In a ceremony held on Thursday at London’s Eventim Apollo, Hammersmith, the band received the award for sophomore album, Visions of a Life, which includes the single “Space & Time.” Their debut LP, My Love is Cool, made the short list of nominees in 2015, but it was bested by Benjamin Clementine’s At Least for Now.
