'It's an honour to be nominated by MTV. This has motivated me to work harder.' said Angel.

Former MTV Brand New nominee Wretch 32 will headline the show at Koko, returning to where it all started for him last year. It promises to be a show-stopping night with all three artists performing and the full 'Brand New for 2012' list of nominees being announced.
