thought the dude should have even be nominated in the VGMAs proper, he is
simply an awesome artiste.

shows.
The Unsung category basically seeks to give
opportunity to the budding talents to shine and blow to the best of their
ability. These 6 nominees will be given the chance to perform at the VGMAs nominees
jam come this Saturday, and the one who will garner the most votes through
public voting will be privilege to share the same stage with the big bosses in
the industry on the VGMAs proper.
