Little Simz has won the prize for Best Hip-Hop Act at the Mobo Awards, which were held this year in Sheffield
The rapper - who also won the 2022 Mercury Prize - has told the BBC she's "buzzing" and that she's enjoyed the best year of her career
Meanwhile, Raye bagged the Best Female trophy and Central Cee was named Best Male; he and Dave were also given the award for Best Song for their hit Sprinter
The inaugural Impact Award went to Sugababes, while Stormzy was given the prize for Best Video for Mel Made Me Do It
Veteran group Soul II Soul were given the Lifetime Achievement award and closed the ceremony with a flurry of their funk classics
Simz and fellow rapper Stormzy dominated this year's nominations going into the night - with each performer receiving four nods
Categories at the Mobos - which celebrate music of black origin - include genres like drill and jazz, as well as best African and Caribbean music acts
London-based singer, DJ, songwriter and rapper ShyGirl - who just won the award for Best Electronic/ Dance Act - says in her speech that she "didn't expect to take this away with me".
She thanks her fellow nominees, saying "I'm in great company".
"I'm just so honoured to be represented here, making music that I love."

While the crowd enjoy a live performance from DJ Spoony, let me tell you what's happening here in the winners' room.
Shxtsngigs, who won the Best Media Personality award, say they weren't expecting to win and describe the moment as "incredibly surreal".
They say they've been podcasting for a few years now, "and it's only in the last year that things started to take off".
"We're genuinely surprised to win," they tell me, before being photographed smiling from ear to ear.
They add that they'll be celebrating with a few drinks tonight. "Our livers are getting merked," they joke.
Sault like to keep their identities hidden, so it wouldn't have made sense for them to front up on the stage.
Little Simz has popped up there instead to accept the award on their behalf.
"For me, Sault is for the people by the people," she says, adding that the collective is "so special".
...and here are the nominees:
Bellah
Jaz
Karis
Mahalia
Ragz Originale
Sampha
Sault
Accepting the trophy, Bugzy celebrates the Mobos coming live from Sheffield.
"When I first started doing music, nobody in the north was making money and now we're out here successful, independent - so I guess we're celebrating black independence," he tells the arena.
"To that I say, the sky is the limit, be inspired is the mind."
He then drops his mic and pops champagne in celebration. Cheers to you, Bugzy!
The next award being presented is Best Grime Act. The nominees are:
Bugzy Malone
Duppy
Flowdan
Manga Saint Hilare
Novelist
P Money
Stay tuned to find out the winner...
Image source, Getty ImagesThe night is only just beginning for Sugababes, who we heard perform a few minutes ago and have now won the Impact Award.
It's a new award for the Mobos making the girl band who've been together - as we've said, in many iterations - since 1998, the first to win it.
They say they're incredibly grateful for being given the award. They thank fans for sticking by them for so many years.
"We grew up together - 12 and 13 years old - and we've been through such a journey together so to be here all these years later receiving this award, we're so grateful," Keisha Buchanan says.

I've moved from the red carpet to what's called the winners' room - no prizes for guessing what goes on here.
Skindred, who moments ago won the Best Alternative Act, just came in - they say it's their first time at the Mobos.
They also say it's an absolute honour and a "beautiful surprise" to receive the award.
Shxtsngigs, who just won the Best Media Personality awards, is a duo made up of James Duncan and Fuhad Dawodu.
"This just started with me and my best friend wanting to make each other laugh and now we've made more friends than we could ever ask for," James says in their acceptance speech.
"Thank you to all you guys, thank you to all the nominees - this is crazy," adds Fuhad.

This award is one that's been decided by the public, so it's considered extra special.
We're not just celebrating music tonight, the Mobos also recognise achievement in acting and presenting.
Let's take a look at the nominees in this category:
Alison Hammond

We're hearing the second of tonight's live performances now, and it comes from none other than the Sugababes, a band that's been around since 1998 (though in different iterations).
They're at the Mobos fresh from a tour after original trio Keisha Buchanan, Mutya Buena and Siobhan Donaghy regrouped in 2022.
A little later, fans will be treated to a special performance from Soul II Soul during the awards as they’re recognised with a Lifetime Achievement Award. The two-time Grammy winning music collective formed in London in 1988 and are best known for their hits Back to Life and Keep on Moving.
Expect a performance from Ibiza legend DJ Spoony as well.
Here's a snap of the Sugababes from earlier, when they posed on the red carpet:
