It was a close one this year imo. I was rooting for Rudimental or Disclosure. Congrats to James though.

I'd probably have gone with the Arctic Monkeys but James Blake is still a solid choice for the Mercury Prize. It's a damn fine album.

Adele will NOT be happy about this if her last tweet is anything to go by.

Congrats James
I can't tell if he deserved it or not cause his was the only album I actually listened to from those nominees.

Haven't heard the album, but it's gotta be perfect to beat David Bowie....
