Having already set himself up a fantastic foundation of work throughout the year, Rag 'n' Bone Man can step into 2017 with even more confidence now after winning the BRIT's Critics' Choice Award.
The soul singer beat off competition from fellow nominees Dua Lipa and Anne-Marie to claim the prize, and follows in the footsteps of Adele, Sam Smith, and last year’s winner Jack Garratt, who have also taken the statue home.
The BRIT Awards are due to take place on the 24th February at London's O2 Arena, and his debut album 'Human' is due out on the 10th February. Watch him perform the title track 'Human' as part of the Critics' Choice sessions in the player below.
