Christian Rapper Guvna B has become the first Brit to be nominated for a Dove Award in the rap category.
The London based artist has been honoured in the best rap/hip hop song of the year for a piece he co-wrote with fellow rapper Andy Mineo.
The competition in that category is particularly tough as in includes world renowned Kanye West, who recently began recording gospel music.
The Dove Awards honour the best in Christian music from across the world, but mainly feature US based artists.
Previous British winners include Matt Redman and Delirious.
Other nominees in different categories this year include Lauren Daigle, Kirk Franklin and Elevation Worship.
Winners will be announced at a ceremony, which is expected to take place online, on Friday 30th October.
