Was looking at the Hardcore Heaven awards just before and this is one category that is not recognised when it really should be. The MCs have awards, the producers do, the djs and even the websites. But the vocalists seem to get totally ignored.
And when you look at it, vocalists have played such a big part in so many great Hardcore tracks. Seems very unfair.
So many could be nominated in this category.

MANDY EDGE
LISA ABBOTT
MARIE LOUISE
BECCA HOSSANY
CAT KNIGHT
KIRSTEN JOY
BECCI
TAYA
DMO
VICKY FEE
MERI EVERITT

I dont think vocalists get the credit so much in the tracks, sounds like a good idea.

So many others that are awesome that I forgot to mention. Even Dougal & Gammers Niki Mak and Hixxys Shelly Clifford.

What's even funnier is that alot of the words to these Hardcore tracks are actually written by the vocalist also. Something slammin Vinyl should really think about.

Mainly because awards aren't given to people who can't sing in tune.

Its not necessarily how good the vocalist is, its how good the producer is at post production.

No point, Darren Styles or Gammer would win it anyway.

Gammer deserves it for this groundbreaking, tear jerking, crowd moving vocal performance.

BTW y'all forgot Donna Grassie!

indeed, saddened that nobody mentioned the only singer worth mention, Donna Grassie, guess its to be expected though with all the new people in the scene who werent around for the first time or don't know they're hardcore history!

really? the clips i've seen him talk normally in doesn't sound to far from what this clip does.

By the way, how many hardcore tracks actually do have vocalists on? Compared to the other instrumtal, vocal & tv sampled tracks?

Should Darren Styles win the Hardcore Singer-Songwriter category then?

I've seen a few live and they can sing. Lisa Abbott for example sounds as good live as on record and no she was'nt miming as the backing track had no vocals.
Also saw Jenna live ages ago and she can sing too.

Would be funny if Gammer or Styles won best vocalist. Would just prove how much of a boys club the hardcore scene really is lol. Probably the best guy singer is Recon.
You'd hope it would be more the chicks nominated in a category like this though.

I agree with Donna Grassie, she has been singing Hardcore tunes for ages.
