4 Opinions - Add Yours Here!:
TO BE COMPLETELY HONEST I CAN'T BELIEVE THE THE ONLY AWARD BASHY IS NOMINATED FOR IS BEST VIDEO FOR KIDULTHOO TO ADULTHOOD!
HIS SONG 'BLACK BOYS' HAD A MAJOR IMPACT ON THE MUSIC SCENE AS WELL AS THE COMMUNITY THIS YEAR, ESPECIALLY IN LIGHT OF THE INCREASE IS GUN AND KNIFE CRIME IN THE UK AT PRESENT. IT WAS A POPULAR, CATCHY, POLITICAL AND MOST OF ALL POSITIVE SONG AND IT BAFFLES ME THAT BASHY IS NOT NOMINATED FOR ANY AWARDS FOR THIS SONG (SUCH AS BEST SONG).
I HONESTLY THOUGHT HE WOULD HAVE A VARIETY OF NOMINATIONS INCLUDING BEST NEWCOMER!
CONFUSED AND ANNOYED!

How be Bashy only be up for 1 award for best video, when he should of been nominated for Best New Comer, Best Song and Best Video foe Black Boys. Cause the video for Kidulthood to Adulthood is rubbish.
Here's a song from Angela Simmons. I wanted to submit it for entry. Thanks!

WHY THE HELL IS T2 NOMINATED FOR BEST NEWCOMER HE IS NOT AN ARTIST LIKE THE REST IN THE CATEGORY HE IS ONLY KNOWN FOR PRODUCING '''HEARTBROKEN''' AND THE TRUE ARTIST THAT SHOULD BE NOMINATED FOR THAT AWARD IS ''JODIE AYSHA'' THE SINGER/SONGWRITER OF 'HEARTBROKEN' WHAT'S UP WITH THAT Y'ALL
