Now this category proved just as boring as the music. Going through these answers was such a yawn, since I didn't even know most of the songs you guys stated. Why I even included this, I'll never know. Anyway, here are your nominees. If you don't give two fucks about R&B as much as I don't, I suggest you just skip to the next category. (Note: There might be some non-feature tracks for this one.)

Girls' Day - "Ring My Bell"
Best Visuals (Female) (Individual)
Now this wasn't the original plan at all. The "Visuals" category was supposed to be on the basis of music videos, not individual Kpop idols. But since a lot of you didn't get that, almost half the answers were Kpop idols, and I felt a little bad about just ignoring them. So being the saint I am, I thought, what the hell? Let's just add a new category. Now that we got that all cleared up, here are the nominees.
1. Red Velvet - Irene

So there ya go. We're halfway through UKMAS mid-2015. Don't feel too down if your biases didn't make the nominees list. There's (hopefully) gonna be another one by the end of this year so all the new releases that didn't make this one (like GOT7's "Just Right" or A-Pink's "Remember") will have another chance!
In the meantime, go vote for your favorite artists HERE! And I promise you, no empty textboxes this time.
