Little Simz has won the 2022 Mercury Prize in a glittering ceremony held on Tuesday October 18, which was rescheduled following the death of the Queen last month.
The 28-year-old artist was given the coveted award – beating 11 other artists and albums to the gong and received the Album of the Year trophy along with a cash prize of £25,000.
The artist, who's real name is Simbiatu "Simbi" Abisola Abiola Ajikawo, said she was "overwhelmed" as she accepted the gong.
