Reggae legend Bob Marley is to be first person honoured with the Mayor of London's heritage plaque.
The plaque will be unveiled at the musician's former residence in Camden, north London, next Thursday. A member of his family is expected to attend.
The plaque to honour Marley, who died of cancer in 1981 at the age of 36, has been organised by the Nubian Jak Community Trust.
The unveiling is part of the Mayor's Black History Season.
It aims to promote the historical role and contribution of African Caribbean communities to the capital.
