BEST POP
Pharrell Williams – “Happy”
Iggy Azalea ft. Charli XCX – “Fancy”
Jason Derulo ft. 2 Chainz – “Talk Dirty”
Ariana Grande ft. Iggy Azalea – “Problem”
Avicii ft. Aloe Blacc – “Wake Me Up”

Winner: Pharrell Williams – “Happy”
Expect a big night for half of the Neptunes in a year that is packed full of amazing videos Pharrell just happened to make a set of visuals that took over the year. “Fancy” should put up a fight but Pharrell should two step away with his signature hat.

MTV ARTIST TO WATCH
Sam Smith – “Stay With Me”
5 Seconds of Summer -”She Looks So Perfect”
Charli XCX – “Boom Clap”
ScHoolboy Q – “Man Of The Year”
Fifth Harmony – “Miss Movin On”

Winner: Sam Smith – “Stay With Me”
ScHoolboy may be the “Man of the Year” but I believe he will be edged by Sam Smith. With an impressive debut behind him.

BEST COLLABORATION
Beyoncé ft. JAY Z – “Drunk In Love”
Ariana Grande ft. Iggy Azalea – “Problem”
Pitbull ft. Ke$ha – “Timber”
Chris Brown ft. Lil Wayne and Tyga – “Loyal”
Eminem ft. Rihanna – “Monster”
Katy Perry ft. Juicy J – “Dark Horse”

Winner: Chris Brown ft. Lil Wayne and Tyga – “Loyal”
With his X album on the way, you can put an x next to Chris Brown’s name for this award. The bright lights of the boardwalk matched with amazing dance moves and presence of Young Money rap all-stars make for a choice that can’t be passed up.
