Idris Elba was presented with the MOBO Inspiration Award today (23.09.14) - an honour he described as "very special".
The actor-and-DJ is the first ever recipient of the accolade, which has been created by Kanya King, the founder of the awards.
According to Kanya, Idris was selected to be the inaugural winner due to his determination to "help and inspire the next generation of talent" in the UK and because he is an "individual who has achieved formidable success in his respective field, against all odds and as such acts as an inspirational figurehead".
The 'Prometheus' star was presented with the prize at the MOBO nominations announcement event, held at Ronnie Scott's Jazz Club in London, and although he was genuinely humbled to win it, Idris was relieved it wasn't a differently titled award.
Upon being handed his statuette by Kanya, he said: "I thought you were going to say Lifetime Achievement Award or then - I'm just too young. I want to say thank you so much this is an amazing honour. I never thought I'd ever hold one of these. I think the spirit of MOBO is about growing, you know, and if I was just a musician then I wouldn't get one of these but if I am someone that believes in life expanding your horizons, just like MOBO is doing, and trying to inspire others to do the same then this is a very special award for me and I'm very thankful for it."
Idris hopes the success he has achieved in his career will inspire the "millions" of other talented people to follow and fulfil their dreams.
He added: "You know my history, I've been very honest about all the sides of my journey, I didn't have success very early and I went through some very dark times but the main thing I kept doing was to keep looking for inspiration. I also kept growing and it hasn't stopped and I want to keep doing that and I also want to inspire others.
There are millions of me sitting at home right now and they don't know it and it's good to get this sort of platform and say, 'Come one guys, go for it.' "
The MOBO Awards take place at Wembley Arena in London on October 22.

Lauren Silverman burst into tears as she declared her love to Simon Cowell at his birthday party last night (22.09.14).
The raven-haired beauty got very emotional as she expressed her feelings for the 54-year-old music mogul - who turns 55 on October 7 - while making a speech at the bash at west London restaurant Scalini.
Singer Lucy Kay told the Daily Mirror newspaper: "Lauren's speech was emotional, she was crying and saying how much she loved him."
The 36-year-old beauty - who has seven-month-old son Eric with Simon - wasn't the only one to make a speech at the party as the 'X Factor' boss' fellow 'Britain's Got Talent' judge David Walliams also took to the microphone and continued their bromance by pretending to be Simon's boyfriend.
A party source added to the publication: "There was a few speeches and David Walliams did one which was very funny.
"It was what David's humour is always like with Simon, he was playing out the boyfriend role."
Several other stars were also in attendance at the bash including Simon's fellow 'X Factor' judge Cheryl Fernandez-Versini and her new husband Jean-Bernard.
'BGT' judges Amanda Holden and Alesha Dixon also made an appearance, as did Simon's ex-girlfriend Sinitta.
The birthday boy was presented with a comical cake which featured a figurine of his baby Eric sitting in the middle of a calorific 'X Factor' judging panel alongside Simon's pet pooches Squiddly and Diddly.
A message in front of the tasty table read: "New judging line-up."
Guests were treated to a slap-up meal of Simon's favourite cuisine, spaghetti bolognaise, at the bash and some partied until the early hours.

Bruce Jenner has filed a response to Kris Jenner's divorce petition.
The former Olympian submitted documents hours after his estranged wife - who he split from last year after 23 years of marriage - yesterday (22.09.14) in which he asked a judge to agree to the same terms set out by the showbiz matriarch, that they have joint physical and legal custody of their youngest daughter Kylie, 17.
Like, Kris, Bruce asked for his own "jewelry and other personal effects," and "earnings and accumulations...from and after the date of separation".
According to RadarOnline.com, Bruce doesn't want to pay spousal support, which is also in line with Kris' petition, which asked the judge to bar the court from awarding spousal support.
The couple announced they had split last October, but the court documents state they separated on June 1 2013.
At the time of the announcement, 'Keeping Up With The Kardashians' star Kris vowed she and Bruce would remain "best friends".
She said: "We are living separately and we are much happier this way.
"But we will always have much love and respect for each other. Even though we are separated, we will always remain best friends, and, as always, our family will remain our number one priority.
"We ended a marriage, but that's not the end of our friendship. I will always love him, but we are no longer a couple in that way."

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie took their children bowling at the weekend.
The couple - who married last month - took time out from working on their new movie, 'By the Sea', to have fun with Maddox, 13, Pax, 10, Zahara, nine, Shiloh, eight, and six-year-old twins Vivienne and Knox at Lucky Jack's Bar, Grill and Bowling in Victoria, Gozo, Malta and spent around two hours playing the game.
A source told E! News: "All of the kids were present, along with three security guards.
"They spent about two hours at the bowling alley. Everyone was really happy and the kids were joking around with one another."
Following the family outing, on Sunday (21.09.14) Angelina toured a Maltese Navy shop, where she met sailors, government officials and other crew members and impressed those on board.
One source said: "She was very kind and gracious.
"She listened to what everyone had to say and was very interested...Angelina looked amazing as always, she was dressed very simple but classy.
"She was happy and radiant. She looked really good."
The family are said to have hired a staggering six villas in Malta to ensure their privacy.
A source said recently: "As well as two holiday homes to accommodate their brood they've hired four surrounding them so they can have privacy.
"It's as though they've sectioned off their own compound. Locals are getting angry as their presence is getting disruptive."

Sadie Frost sprinkles a line of salt across her doorways to absorb negative energy.
The 49-year-old actress - who divorced Jude Law in 2003 after six years of marriage - has turned to the unusual technique to rid her home of bad feeling and she also encourages people to break up blocked energy in their homes by walking around chanting and hitting a gong.
Discussing the salt method in her upcoming wellbeing book, 'Nourish', she states: "Leave for 24 hours, by which time it should have absorbed all the negativity."
In the book, Sadie also gives tips on yoga, food, nutrition, exercise and meditation, which she does six times a week to rid herself of all the "craziness" in her life.
Speaking to The Times newspaper, she said: "It is kind of stepping back from the little things that are bothering you. When you're thinking, 'Oh I've got to go to the shop and buy some stamps.'
"It's getting rid of all that craziness.
"I might go to the park and just do a walking meditation, which is just walking the dogs."
As well as her dog walking relaxation technique, Sadie also enjoys gong meditation, in which she sits down while someone bangs a gong.
She added: "People go in huge numbers to do gong meditation. I'm just one of those people who've tried it out, and I'm saying that there's all different ways to meditate."

Kerry Katona "wasn't a**ed" about her previous weddings.
The Atomic Kitten singer - who has kids Molly, 13, Lilly Sue, 11, Heidi, seven, and Max, six, from previous relationships and five-month-old Dylan-George with new spouse George Kay - tied the knot for the third time earlier this month and admits walking down the aisle to join her how-husband was the first time she had felt nervous and thinks it is because she feels more for him than she did about former spouses Brian McFadden and Mark Croft.
She told Britain's OK! magazine: "I don't think I took my eyes off George walking down the aisle.
"I just stared at him and then I saw he was about to start crying and I thought, 'Here we go!'
"When I've been married before, I've never been nervous, I don't think I was really a**ed, but with George I was thinking, 'What if he's not there?' I love him so much I just don't want to burst."
At the wedding, Kerry's eldest daughter Molly, 13, sang at the ceremony while 11-year-old Lilly Sue - both her daughters with Brian - gave a speech in which she revealed George, 34, had asked them for permission to marry their 34-year-old mother.
She told guests at Tortworth Court Four Pillars hotel in Gloucestershire, South West England: "We found out in Pizza Hut. He asked Molly and I for our permission when Mum took Max and Heidi to use the toilet - classy.
"We thought he was joking until he pulled out this huge rock which he was very bad at hiding."

Kanye West made a surprise appearance at a Los Angeles college on Friday (19.09.14).
The 'Yeezus' singer spent around two hours speaking to 40 students from the digital communications department at LA Trade Technical College, as well as spending time with troubled youth participating in a summer bridge programme, and he used the sessions to talk about his experiences and personal struggles in music, fashion and graphic arts, and to stress the importance of getting an education.
One student, Andre Pitts III, explained how the 37-year-old rapper - who has 15-month-old daughter North with wife Kim Kardashian West - "didn't try" to teach the students anything, but just wanted to share his experiences.
He told Vice.com: "It went on for about an hour and a half and Kanye discussed a lot of things but mainly about his inspirations. He mentioned Ice Cube being one of his biggest inspirations, but also one of his biggest let downs. He also discussed Steve jobs, 2Pac and his grandfather.
"I've listened to Kanye since I was younger but I can't rate him as a teacher because he didn't come to teach a fashion class, he just spoke about his inspirations. He didn't try to be a teacher, he simply spoke about how life really is."
The visit was at least Kanye's fourth time speaking to Los Angeles students, and it forms part of his 240-hour community service sentence which was handed out when he struck a plea deal over allegedly attacking a photographer last summer.

Simon Cowell has congratulated his ex-girlfriend Terri Seymour on her pregnancy.
The 39-year-old TV presenter announced yesterday (22.09.14) she is expecting her first child with model boyfriend Clark Mallon, 28, and the music mogul - who dated the brunette for around six years - took to his Twitter account to reveal he and partner Lauren Silverman are delighted for the couple.
He wrote: "Congratulations @TerriSeymour and Clark. Me and Lauren are very excited for you both. If it's a boy you can call him simon. (sic)"
While he is keen for Terri, who is four months pregnant, to have a boy, he also wouldn't mind if the 'Extra' red carpet host had a baby girl so he can set her up with his and Lauren's seven-month-old son Eric.
Terri said: "Immediately after congratulating me the first thing he said was he had to be the godfather.
"Then he said it was perfect timing with his son Eric being so young and he hoped I would have a baby girl so he could set her up with Eric and they could date. 'How perfect would that be,' he said. Typical Simon."
Terri also admitted she swore Simon to secrecy about her baby news because she was desperate to tell Lauren herself.
She added to HELLO! magazine: "Lauren was in New York and Simon was in LA and I wanted to be the one to tell her.
"Amazingly, he managed to keep it a secret - he's usually terrible at keeping them so I wasn't sure he'd be able to do it.
"Lauren has been great. She has been amazing with baby tips, too."
Terri previously praised Simon for being a naturally great father, despite admitting he didn't even know how to hold a baby before he had Eric.
She said: "He's great actually. I mean he hasn't changed his lifestyle because Simon wouldn't. But he's very good. He'd never even held a baby before, so he was like, 'How do you hold a baby?'
"You have to remind him every now and then about the head... But he's really good and he loves it.
"Everybody was like, 'Oh my God, this is going to be so strange' but it's all been very natural."
