Elsewhere, Raye became the first artist in history to score seven nominations in a single year, in what is a strong showing from female musicians, who make up over half of the nominees.

Hip-hop is well represented, with rappers Central Cee and J Hus earning four nods each, while Little Simz and Dave have three a piece.

Two-time winner Calvin Harris adds more nominations to his growing tally, with three in dance pop and song categories. Dua Lipa similarly earned three nominations thanks to her Barbie soundtrack hit ‘Dance the Night’. The singer is also the first performer announced for the ceremony in March.

Despite topping the charts, the Rolling Stones, Lewis Capaldi, Stormzy and Ed Sheeran only earned one nomination each, while industry titans Sam Smith and Gorillaz were omitted altogether.

The awards are voted for by the Brit Awards Voting Academy, with the British public deciding the winners of five genre categories by voting on Instagram.
