Rapper and producer Lemfreck has won the 2024 Welsh Music Prize for his album Blood, Sweat and Fears.
The Newport artist fought off competition from rockers Skindred and singer Gruff Rhys, among others, to bag the £10,000 award.
The ceremony was held on Tuesday night at Cardiff’s Wales Millennium Centre where a smiling Lemfreck, real name Lemarl Freckleton, was pictured with his trophy.
The 30-year-old thanked his mum and dad after receiving the 14th annual award from host Sian Eleri, saying: “As young black kid growing up, they constantly told me I could do anything and be anything.”
