Let's Get Khalid a 'Best New Artist' VMA

If you're a fan of Khalid's soulful singing voice, it's time to let your voice be heard.

As we previously reported, the Americas High graduate is one of five fresh faces on the music scene up for a MTV Video Music Award in the Best New Artist category.

Fan voting is going to help determine the winner, so let's show El Paso's singing sensation some love. Let's get Khalid a Moon Man.

Vote for him online at http://www.mtv.com/vma/vote/best-new-artist. You can vote once every day between now and the VMA pre-show on Sunday, August 27.

I mean, how can you not root for a guy who has nothing but love for a city he didn’t even move to until a couple of years ago?

He was born in Georgia, has lived all over the U.S. and six years in Germany, but El Paso is the place he chooses to rep and call home. That's worth the minute or two it'll take you to vote, no?

Khalid is having a breakout year. His tour is selling out around the world. His debut single, Location, has gone platinum, and his latest song, Young Dumb & Broke, is racing up the charts.

Let's put it down for Khalid and the 915. Vote early and vote often.
