London rapper Dave wins big at male-dominated Brit AwardsTwenty-one year-old Dave took home best album for his first offering "Psychodrama", which addresses black identity and institutional racism and topped the UK music charts last year. LONDON: Breakthrough London rapper Dave won the top gong at a male-dominated Brit Awards on Tuesday after delivering a politically-charged performance at British pop's biggest night. "To be the best male, I have got the most incredible females in my team," he said. But while women were under-represented in the awards, black artists dominated the nominations in 'best album' and 'best male'. British artists account for an eighth of album sales worldwide, according to figures from BPI, which represents the British music industry.
