Male Artists Dominate The Brit Awards Nominations As Dave And Lewis Capaldi Come Out On Top

Of all of the 2020 awards contenders, Mabel is the only woman to receive more than one nomination.

Dave and Lewis Capaldi are the leading artists at this year’s Brit Awards, with four nominations each.

Unfortunately, after last year saw three British women leading the nominees, it’s a decidedly male-heavy shortlist this year, with no women recognised in the Album Of The Year or Group Of The Year categories.

In fact, Mabel is the only female artist with more than one nomination, with three in total, matching her with Stormzy.

The chart-topping Vossi Bop rapper is up for Album Of The Year in 2020, alongside Dave, Lewis Capaldi, Harry Styles and Michael Kiwanuka.
