Skepta performs with BBK during Boy Better Know Takeover at The O2 Arena on August 27, 2017 in London, England.

But is Naomi Campbell the mother?

Skepta's done a whole lot in his 15+ year career but it looks like he's getting ready to embark on another chapter of life. The grime emcee took to Instagram to announce that he's going to be a father.

Earlier today, Skepta revealed that he's expecting his first child. The "Shutdown" emcee shared a picture of a 3D ultrasound with a vivid picture of the child's face on the 'Gram. Skepta allowed the picture to talk and kept the caption simple with just a single flower emoji. From the picture, the ultrasound was taken earlier today.

While everyone's been showering Skeppy with congratulations, the mother of the child has yet to be confirmed. Earlier this year, there were speculations that he and supermodel Naomi Campbell were dating. The two of them ultimately confirmed their romance on the GQ cover in March. However, it has yet to be confirmed whether she's pregnant with Skepta's child.

Skepta's been hit with a lot of big news over the past few months. The emcee was given the title of an honorary chief in his parents home state Ogun, Nigeria. A few days before the announcement, he teamed up with Off-White for a Nigeria '18 t-shirt. Hopefully, we'll see Skepta document his first trip to Nigeria as a father once his child is born.

Peep the sonogram flick below.
