On Monday 24 September gisters.com was present at the competition's search for urban talent which drew to a close with an exciting Grand Final which took place at Po Na Na in Hammersmith. Music industry heavyweights such as Ferdy Unger-Hamilton MD of Go Beat, DJ Tim Westwood and celebrities watched & judged the ten finalists. They were also joined and supported by a huge public turnout for this prestigious and hugely anticipated event.

MOBO Unsigned 2001, the annual nationwide star search, started earlier in the year, with the aim of finding the hottest up-and-coming talent in the genres of R&B, Garage, Hip Hop, Reggae, Jazz, Gospel & World Music.


The prize on offer was a highly coveted recording contract from the Go Beat label (home to Gabrielle & The Architechs) and a much-coveted MOBO Award.

R&B producer Tim Blacksmith (Craig David, Mis-Teeq), has offered to provide re-mixes for the winner's debut single. The garage production team Sunship, will also provide a remix for the winner's debut single.
