The Brooklyn-born songstress will take the Ahoy Rotterdam stage for the first time ever to host one of the globe’s biggest nights in music. Rexha has three nods under her belt for “Best Look,” “Best New” and “Best Push”. “Best Push” references the brand’s ongoing MTV Push initiative that amplifies artists on the rise. She reigned as the MTV Push artist this past June and was previously nominated for “Best Collaboration” at the 2015 MTV EMAs.
