Confirming what we already knew, Melbourne rapper 360 took home the gong for ‘Breakthrough Artist’ at the 2012 ARIA Awards.

With a massive 10 nominations and over 600,000 records sold in 2012, 360 capped off a memorable year with a spectacular performance of his multi-platinum hit ‘Boys Like You’ feat. Gossling.

Other highlights of the evening included Jessica Mauboy rocking the red carpet with a medley of tunes from the #1 soundtrack to The Sapphires film and Guy Sebastian tearing the roof of the Sydney Entertainment Centre with a surprise appearance from Lupe Fiasco, as they delivered a stand-out performance of the 6xPlatinum #1 hit ‘Battle Scars’.

UMPG would like to congratulate our 2012 ARIA nominees 360, Children Collide, The Living End, Jessica Mauboy, Guy Sebastian, Keith Urban and our international nominees Adele, Coldplay and Florence and the Machine.
