He was recognized on MTV Base's "Best of the Best UK MCs" list for two consecutive years, ranking #10 in 2010 and #7 in 2011.
Lowkey's community involvement, particularly his work surrounding the Grenfell fire, led to his appointment as Director of Performing Arts for the Kids on The Green charity, aiding in the rehabilitation of children in the affected area.
