Phenomenal singing talent Jessie J has topped this years Mobo nominations list, with an amazing five nominations to her name..

With a mega year behind her and many more ahead, it’s no surprise that the Mobo’s have recognised her talent by awarding the Brit School graduate with the highest number of nominations this year. Best UK Act, best newcomer, best album, best song and best video are the nominations racked up this year by the Do It Like A Dude singer.

She is followed in the Mobo race closely by fellow UK female singing sensation Adele, who’s album 21 has been given one of her four Mobo nominations in the best album category, fittingly, after it was named as Amazon’s most downloaded album ever . Wretch 32 and Tinie Tempah are also strong favourites to win with four nominations each, representing strongly for the major rapping talent we have in the UK right now.

Other nominations include Rizzle Kicks who have 3 nominations including Best Newcomer in which they are joined by artists such as Ed Sheeran, Yasmin, Jamie Woon and Emeli Sandé.
