For Tony Shergill, CEO of BritAsia TV, 2020 is set to be the year that South Asian music breaks into the mainstream industry. Tony said: “We’ve had some fantastic successes over the past year, with Sidhu’s single entering the top ten and the Official Charts Company launching the world’s first Punjabi Chart Show in November.
From Ravi Shankar’s collaborations with the Beatles in the 1960s, Indian music has had a profound influence on pop music around the globe. That sense of collaboration continues to this day and what’s great to see from a song like 47 is that it doesn’t matter whether you’re from east London, a small village in the Punjab, inner city Birmingham or Jamaica, if you have talent you have an opportunity to make music.
“All the winners and nominees were very well deserved; it was great to present them all with awards for their hard work. The big winner, Sidhu Moosewala has had an amazing year, and put on a show stopping performance last night. We would like to thank all the winners and nominees and wish them all the success.”
