Newsgush: Speech Debelle Wins Mercury Prize

So the prize goes to…an artist no one has really heard of.

In all honesty Speech Debelle’s music isn’t bad – to my distinctly un – urban ears it soundsĀ  what I’ve heard sounds like early hip – hop crossed with a bit of jazz. It isn’t horrible, paint by numbers indie or unlistenable experimaental dross, which is nice.

    it reminded me a bit of Lovage, which isn’t a bad thing. Better than most recent winners -or if not better, at least more credible.
