N-Dubz have spoken about their anger at BRIT Awards organisers for neglecting the group from this year’s nominations list. Never known to keep things under their hat, the band showed their frustration in a recent interview with The Sun.
Dappy showed that he believes the BRITs recognise artists on single sales alone. He said: "I think the Brit Awards see success in number one singles. You get two number ones and you get quick status. They don't see album sales as a big thing and that's what N-Dubz are about. No one can beat our album sales. That's why the Brits can do what they want. We've sold more albums than half of the nominees."
He continued to suggest that other artists envy N-Dubz’ success in terms of album sales, even if they aren’t recognised through awards nominations: "There are artists who want what we have and we want what some of them have. We've only had one number one and we want more. But some artists would cut off their arms to have anywhere near the album sales we've had."
Fazer then went on to discuss the groups ever-publicised mission to crack the American market. He compared the experience to starting at secondary school, saying: "We're going to America to meet a team out there. It'll be like going from the oldest in primary school in year six to the youngest in high school in year seven. It's like starting from scratch again."
