Dizzee Rascal and Amy Winehouse dominate the shortlists for this year's MOBO Awards which were announced earlier this week. The two stars are up for four awards each at the annual celebration of 'music of black origin' which will take place at London's O2 Arena on 19 Sep.
Winehouse is nominated for Best UK Female, Best Song (for 'Rehab'), Best Video (for 'Back To Black') and Best R&B Act. Rascal is up for Best UK Male, Best Song and Best Video (for 'Sirens') and Best Hip Hop.
Elsewhere in the shortlists Mutya Buena, N Dubz, Sadie Ama, Tinchy Stryder and Unkle Jam are all up for the Best Newcomer prize, while Akon, P Diddy, Kanye West, Rihanna and TI will all compete for the Best International Award.
Shaggy and Jamelia will host the event, with the former telling reporters at the shortlists announcement that the ceremony would be "climactic", adding: "I think it's going to be wonderful. I'm happy to be involved with it".
