After languishing in second place for while, Krept & Konan took to social media to urge the their fans to get voting. It appears that their efforts have payed off, and now the south London rap-duo have cruised into pole-position, and are currently leading the pack with 20,114 votes.
Krept And Konan topped the MTV UK Top 10 UK MC List earlier this year, and won a ‘Best Hip-Hop Act’ at this years MOBO Awards. Winning #MTVBranNewStar would be a great addition to their already long list of achievements. Get voting folks!
