Benjamin Clementine has won the 2015 Mercury Prize for his debut album At Least For Now.

The Londoner beat competition from Florence + The Machine, Aphex Twin and Jamie xx.

"I don't know what to say," the 25-year-old said as he accepted the prize.

He invited all other nominees to take to the stage with him and then dedicated his award to the victims of the Paris terror attacks.

He then broke into tears.

The musician spent his early 20s living in the city, and spent time busking on the metro.

The £20,000 Mercury Prize recognises innovative albums produced in the UK and Ireland.
