10 artists to watch out for in 2015

2014 was quite a musical year. While several new stars and bands were picked up, there were many

who continued to innovate and slowly build up their reputation. Here’s a list of the top 10 artists to

watch out for in 2015:

1. Stormzy

Stormzy is someone who you would recognize from the recent MOBO Awards events. He is the one who

picked up the trophy for the “Best Grime Act” of 2014. The music star debuted last year in July with

“Dreamers Disease” and since then has been a common topic of discussion in the music circle. The

debut album was so impressive that even Manny Norte will be having Stormzy as a special guest in one

of the guests in The Norte Show End of the Year Specials.

2. Zafi B

16 year old Zafi B had started her career at 11 years of age acting in shows like Holby City and Doctor

Who. Now that she has earned her graduation from the Sylvia Young Performing Arts School, she has

moved over into singing. With her first single “Number 1” out now, everyone is talking about this young

talent. We predict big things for her in 2015.

3. Kwabs

At just 24 years old, Kwabs is quickly getting popular in the UK music circle. With his first two EPs “Pray

For Love” and “Wrong or Right” were released in 2014, we have been promised a complete album in

2015. For Kwabs, music is what defines his personality, help him realize the better things in life and help

him continue pursuing his love.

4. Fifth Harmony

Don’t think them of just another girl band who will disappear from the limelight. Girl group Fifth

Harmony has now been signed for Simon Conwell’s record label. People will remember the girls from

the 2012 X Factor USA, but their debut “BO$$” is becoming the base tune for Capital XTRA. In 2015, Fifth

Harmony has many things to look forward to.

5. August Alsina

August has been the latest sensation to explode in the hip hop world, already boasting collaborations

with stars like Chris Brown and Nicki Minaj. He recently performed at the BET awards alongside Trigga

and Breezy.

6. Ilovemakonnen

Known by his stage name of iLoveMakonnen, American Makonnen Sheran’s name has been on

everyone’s lips with his single “Tuesday”. July 2014 saw the singer rise to fame with his self titled EP

called the ILoveMakonnen. He made headlines when Miley Cyrus chose to share one of his songs on

Instagram leading to a huge catapult into the music circle.

7. Blonde

Not a girls group as the name would seem, duo Jake Manson and Adam Englefield have been getting the

crowd on their feet with tunes like “I Loved You”. The single has been getting tons of airtime recently. A

little known fact is that the boys met on the internet not so long ago!

8. Wayward

These boys have steadily grown their popularity in last year for their smooth remixes and popular songs

like “Never Say Never”. Wayward is all geared up to turn some heads in 2015 too.

9. Tchami

Tchami has begun to touch the heights of success after signing up with “Spinnin Records” who worked

with some of the most highly rated artists like DJ Snake, Diplo, Skrillex and other French DJs. 2015 will be

a full house for him.

10. Kstewart

If you have been humming through “Last All Night (Koala)”, the appreciation goes to Kate Stewart. A

London based artist, she has a voice that will rule 2015.
