Dave on the Brit Awards

[buttonmoonb4tea]

I just did a standing ovation. Powerful message!

That's it really!

Did anyone else see it?

Yes it was bloody brilliant

Who is Dave and what did he say? I'm boring and was watching a really dull episode of Endeavour.

Basically called out Boris for being racist, the media for their treatment of Kate v Meghan, Windrush and grenfell

Honestly it wasn't for me.
I found it obvious and a bit lacking after stormzy last year.

I loved it. What is the song called?

I thought it was amazing. I don’t get Stormzy.

Absolutely outstanding.

Everyone to their own but I thought it was fantastic.

He called out bojo at the abrupt awards to finish off, that'll do for me.

I don't know what the songs called goes to search YouTube

Dave was incredible. Whether you like that genre of music or not, there is no denying he is extremely talented.

@vincettenoir here you go

It was amazing. Really moving. Even more moving was the way he dropped the mike and ran at the end. He put his all into it.

@buttonmoonb4tea thank you.

Yes @Etinox I liked that too he put his all into it. I have never heard of him, how he could remember it all was amazing

He was absolutely incredible. Most definitely not my 'thing', but I was blown away.

It’s a powerful song anyway. But he just ratcheted it up significantly. Great performance.

The piano, the visuals, his passion, the lyrics. Just spot on.

Delivering such a powerful message on such a huge platform as the Brits must be terrifying and exhilarating at the same time.

Yes loved it

Not much diversity on Stormzys set

I@Puppybum sorry I don't know what you mean by that, I wasn't really paying attention to the dancers on stormzy's set

got an ovation here, so well performed and the message so powerful loved the bits he added at the end too - referencing grenfell and Meghan

Save had an awful lot to say. He did it so incredibly well.

I had never heard of him until tonight.

When I began 2019, I would have turned over at Grime, when my Spotify account delivered my most listened to artist at the end of 2019, it was Dave. That is mostly thanks to my 17 year old DS who commandered my phone in the car for music to play. At first I hated all that was grime, "they arent singing", "this is shite" were often my sentiments whilst my DS chose time after time these artists. I eventually switched off, until Stormsy's legendary headline slot at Glasto, my GOD! I have been known to watch that performance aka stalker levels and since then Dave, Fredo, Skepta, et al. These artists are just that, they are talented beyond their years and I am so pleased Dave got his opportunity to voice a very significant message, brilliant stuff!

he was immense
Black is an amazing song in any case, and stopped me in my tracks the first time I heard it, but the extra verse at the end totally made the performance

He’s a hero! Every single word he said it true.
