The nominees for the Best Southeast Asia Act in this year’s MTV Europe Music Awards are out and Singapore group The Sam Willows is among the list of six.
Faizal Tahir (Malaysia), James Reid (Philippines), NOAH (Indonesia), Slot Machine (Thailand) and Son Tung M-TP (Vietnam) are also competing for the coveted prize, but there’s one more slot that needs to be filled — and MTV has given you the power to decide who that is.
You can choose the seventh nominee by using the group’s pre-assigned hashtag. Gentle Bones from Singapore is in the wildcard list so if you want to be nationalistic, just use #NominateGentleBones #MTVEMA. The rest are:
• Afgan (Indonesia)

The 2015 MTV EMA will broadcast live across the globe on Oct 26, 4am SGT, from the Mediolanum Forum in Milan, the city of Expo 2015.
