Nigerian star singers Burna Boy, Tiwa Savage, Davido, Wizkid, and some others have been nominated for the 2020 edition of the Music Of Black Origin (MOBO) awards.

This year's edition of the awards, billed for December 9, is coming after about a two-year hiatus — with the last one held in 2017.

To make up for its time off, organisers of the award show added a new category named Best album (1 September 2017 – 31 August 2019).
