Sam 5 awards

SHELF ESTEEM: Another day, another armload of laurels for Capitol's Sam Smith, whose last 24 hours in London included a Q Award for Best New Act and no fewer than four MOBO Awards. The latter (the acronym stands for "Music of Black Origin," btw) included Best R&B/Soul Act, Best Male, Best Song ("Stay With Me") and Best Album. Capitol U.K. chief Nick Raphael and U.S. ruler Steve Barnett are suitably chuffed. So... how was your day? (10/23p)
