Japaneezi J-Pop Awards 2016

Hello everyone! I am excited to announce the beginning of a new project. As we are almost in Autumn (Fall), the last full season of the year, I wanted to showcase the best of Japanese music in 2016. This year has been great for J-Pop, so I decided that we would make an awards ceremony dedicated to the best of Japanese music.

But, I can't do it alone! I need you guys to recommend songs and artists to get awards. So, here, as follows are the categories:

Best Girl Group
Best Boy Group
Best Mixed Group
Best Album
Best J-Rock Song
Best Idol Group
Best J-Pop Collaboration
Best J-Pop song sung by a K-Pop Artist
Most Inventive Song
Best Debut Song
Best Newcomer
J-Pop Song of the Year

Any recommendations will be accepted! Please write your recommendations in the comments by the Tuesday 15th October 2016, at 3:00PM (GMT). Any recommendations after this date will not be added. The most voted groups will then go in to the next round, where groups will be judged and the winner decided. The video schedule will then precede as follows:

*The videos will then roll out as follows~
