I wait all year to see this list get published. Only because it’s interesting to see how many people have already been featured on here.

The BBC Sound of 2014 is often a predictor of what music acts will launch big in over the next twelve months, and has featured the likes of Adele, Jessie J and 50 cent.

This year’s mix is a lot better than last year’s in my opinion, and is definitely more pop-orientated than previous ‘Sounds of’. Here’s the full list:

• Banks – first featured February 2013
• Chance The Rapper
• Ella Eyre – first featured April 2013
• George Ezra – first featured December 2012
• FKA Twigs
• Chloe Howl – first featured December 2012
• Jungle – first featured September 2013
• Kelela – first featured October 2013
• MNEK – first featured May 2010 (also check out the interview)
• Nick Mulvey – first featured May 2013
• Royal Blood
• Sampha
• Say Lou Lou – first featured May 2012 (as Saint Lou Lou)
• Luke Sital-Singh – first featured July 2012
• Sam Smith – first featured January 2013

The top 5 will be revealed daily starting 6th January 6th 2014, with the winner crowned on the 10th. I’m not putting any guesses on who will win this time round though!
