In 2010 Jon Magnificent was the most-nominated artist of the year, meaning, he had more nominations in 2010 than any other artist at the Los Angeles Music Awards.
This started with a demo being sent in through SonicBids to the LA Music Awards while Jon Magnificent was still working on the album.
That was 2008. The demo won the award for:
Orchestral Composer of the Year
and the nomination for
Male Singer-Songwriter of the Year.
In 2009 Jon Magnificent sought to get more recognition and with his completed album just back from mastering (album mastering done by Andy Jackson – Pink Floyd’s recording engineer), it was submitted to the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences. Jon Magnificent was recognized with two entries on the 2009 GRAMMY ballot for his song BABY!:
BEST ROCK SONG
and
BEST ROCK SOLO VOCAL PERFORMANCE.

In August of 2009, the album was just out of manufacturing when it was submitted to the Los Angeles Music Awards – the entry arrived just after the deadline, but was given special recognition as the first nominee for the 2010 Awards in two categories:
ROCK ALBUM of the YEAR (for You Won’t Believe This)
and
ROCK SONG/SINGLE of the YEAR (for Proud To Be n American).
