1 to watch - Michael Kiwanuka

Georgedivided's picture

This talented young chap has just been chosen as the BBC Sound of 2012 winner. There is much here for Word to enjoy, I think. He has a fabulous voice and the tracks I've heard so far suggest the songs can match the voice.
The rest of the top 5 Sound of 2012 list are a strong bunch too, Frank Ocean, Azealia Banks, Skrillex and Niki & The Dove all sound very promising.

Anyway, here is the winner in action - Michael Kiwanuka 'Tell Me A Tale'

This is excellent, too

Sounds like the missing link between The Knife and Lykke Li
Niki & The Dove - 'DJ, Ease My Mind'
