Nine 馃敟 reasons you CAN'T miss 1Xtra Live

1. Craig David does it like a pro 馃憖馃憖馃憖

Craig David took it from Queen B to Chabuddy G and back again in one of the most unlikely covers of Live Lounge Month - if that switch back into Say My Name doesn't make you realise something special is gonna happen during his set, nothing will.

2. It's Stormzy's only gig in 2016

Stormzy had to cancel all his remaining gigs in 2016, which is emotional. BUT he's still doing 1Xtra Live, do NOT miss your chance to see the big man.

3. Sean Paul in the flesh

Sean Paul: "A lot of young artists ask me to do a song with them, but they've got to prove their vibe first"

Sean chats to Yas about his huge career and who he's looking forward to at 1Xtra Live.

Serial but picky collaborator and hit-making MACHINE Sean Paul is the kind of international megastar who you don't even get to see when he's guesting on your track.

You get the full Sean Paul Ryan Francis Henriques (yes!) experience with 1Xtra Live, though 馃憦馃従馃憦馃従馃憦馃従

4. Bugzy Malone is stepping UP to it

His first Fire In The Booth raced to be the most-viewed of 2015, with over 7.5 million plays so we know Bugzy can bring it fast when he's asked to - get ready for something very spontaneous and very special.

5. THE QUEEN WILL SPEAK 馃憫

Lady Leshurr's blown up this year, with a set at Glastonbury and a MOBO nomination - get her at her most raw and original at 1Xtra Live before she's actual royalty.

6. Wretch 32 turns it into a 1Xtra Fam love-in

7. Giggs can do both 馃憣馃従馃檶馃従

Giggs may be about to drop the heaviest, sickest set of the night - and he's ultimate boyfriend goals. Like you're gonna miss this.
