Nominations are decided by a panel of 15 varied game players, both older and newer, who submit "pre-nominations". Only five acts can be nominated for each category. Following this process the votes are tabulated. The five recordings that earn the most votes become the nominees. After the nominations are announced, voting is opened to all game players. The awards gives out a number of awards but among the most notable are Best Album, Best Female, Best Male, Best Newcomer, and Best Single. An award for Best Overall Artist was introduced at Urapopstar Awards 18. Other awards are given for performance and production in specific genres, as well as for other contributions such as artwork and video. Special awards are also given out for more long-lasting contributions to Urapopstar.
