Watch Skepta Shutdown the 2017 BRIT Awards
He didn’t let the censorship stop him.
As promised, Skepta was front and center last night during the annual 2017 BRIT Awards where the Grime king performed his hit single “Shutdown.” The BBK frontman pulled up solo in a black tracksuit and, despite being heavily censored, he mixed things up with a different ending and still managed to shut it down. Of course, many of his fans were not pleased with the censorship taking place and sounded off on Twitter:
Audio muted. Fuck off
