The title he's been given is for "entertainers in all forms", according to BBC Lagos reporter Busayo Akogun.
Chieftain titles are given in recognition of a positive contribution to community wellbeing - which Skepta's done through entertainment.
"Also such people are known to be at the forefront of transmitting culture and tradition of the land from one generation to another using their trades," Busayo says.
