Edinburgh-based hip-hop trio Young Fathers have won the 2014 Barclaycard Mercury Prize for the best British or Irish record of the last 12 months.
Their record, Dead, beat 11 other albums from acts including Damon Albarn, Bombay Bicycle Club and bookmakers' favourite, FKA twigs.

Wow, I was expecting FKA twigs to win. I will have to listen to their record now, and see what I think.

I was sure that Twigs will win this one. They are nothing special. It's mostly alternative hip-hop. I prefer their EP's.
