There was no explanation for why the show didn’t take place this year, but in 2018 to they stated that they wanted to work to "bring the platform to brand new heights" – and vowed it will be a "bigger, revamped show" when it’s back.
The 2017 MOBOs, which took place at the First Direct Arena in Leeds, saw grime superstar Stormzy win big, scooping Best Male Act and Best Album for ‘Gang Signs & Prayer’.
