Aitch triumphed in the hip-hop\/grime\/rap category over Central Cee, Dave, Loyle Carner and Stormzy. Central Cee has been nominated for the award a number of times and has yet to grab the prize<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\t\u201cI felt like a p\u2014k when I went to the BRITs and they gave the award to a guy called Aitch\/ I had my acceptance speech prepared like, \u2018Long live F\u2019s,\u2019 I\u2019m goin\u2019 insane,\u201d he said.
