Mabel says it's incredibly emotional to win a BRIT award when her own mother did the same thing thirty years ago, to the very day.
At last night's ceremony, she picked up Best Female Solo Artist which she was joined at by mum Neneh Cherry who found fame in the 80s with hit singles Buffalo Stance and Manchild.
