Sigrid has topped this year'd BBC Sound of 2018 poll.
The Norwegian pop sensation joins previous winners Jack Garratt, Years & Years, Sam Smith, Adele, Ellie Goulding, Jessie J and 2017 victor Ray BLK.
Speaking to the BBC, Sigrid said: “It’s a lot to take in to have won something as prestigious as BBC Music Sound Of. I feel honoured as there are so many other artists I look up to who have won this before me, and honestly, I’m just really happy and proud of what my team and I have achieved together. I’m from a small town called Ålesund in Norway. I’m still 21 and it’s quite crazy to get this recognition. I’m very excited about the year ahead and sharing new music with everyone. I want to thank the panel for voting and the team involved in BBC Music Sound Of 2018.”
The rest of the top five, announced across the week, includes Rex Orange County, IAMDDB, Khalid and Pale Waves.
