I’ve been so so so looking forward 2 finding out the nominees for the YouTube Music Awards and now that theyve been announced, im kinda disappointed 🙁
Lets start with the positive: a bunch of my YouTube favorites got the recognition they deserved including Lindsey Stirling and Pentatonix, ThePianoGuys, Epic Rap Battles of History (which received nominations for Video of the Year AND Artist of the Year), Walk Off the Earth, and friend of MyMusic DeStorm!
But what about all the other amazing artists who didn’t get nominations? No Cimorelli, no David Choi, no Tiffany Alvord!!! Maybe I should just start my own awards show and nominate every1 i luv! I’ll call it … THE SCENEYS!!! How amazing would that be????
Well, I still plan on watching the YouTube Music Awards and casting my vote for all 6 categories. If u want 2 cast your vote, check out the video below to find out how. I’ve also included the full list of nominees to help u make your decision!
