VGMA 2016/2017 FULL NOMINATION LIST

At the end of the year VGMA again to award the hard working music artists and players for the year 2016 depending on their requirments. 
we are just hoping this does'nt create controversies since it seems to creep up every year...But i was experting kamelyeon in the unsung category since he has done a lot this year and was nominated in the base awards but that is a personal view.
