FKA Twigs has it in the bag. I got her at 4.5 with Betvictor

Tip: Last year, the highest ranked in Otis' Chart (James Blake) won, even tho the bookies saw him as one of the least
favorite (he was odds 17.0 at some point)
Take a look who's leading the shortlisted in the MCCh this year

------------
But the fact that they left out Wild Beasts or Actress is really laughable.

I didn't really care for the FKA Twigs album, so I'm hoping Damon Albarn wins it.

Also, it's Damon Albarn, and the British music press loves him. He has a really good shot.

And the winner is young fathers! Bit of a shock!
