Estelle leads the nominations for this year's Mobo Awards.
The singer, 28, is up for Best Song and Best Video for American Boy, Best UK Female, Best R&B/Soul, and Best Album for Shine.
‘It's fantastic to see artists like Estelle, who MOBO championed early on, get their due,’ says Mobo chief executive Kanya King.
‘I'd like to call on the music industry to keep up the good work and capitalise on this. There are still barriers out there.
'Estelle had to go to America to really break through and be given her big chance.’
Leona Lewis, 23, got three nominations, including one for Best UK Female.
She will be joined by Adele, 20, Duffy, 24, and M.I.A., 31, in the category.
