Well, if you've looked at the ballot this far down, you may be wondering what's up with this All-Star Award category. It should be obvious, but if you're new to the scene, the deal is, these five acts have been winning their respective categories just about every year for the past three-plus years -- with the exception of Tech N9ne, who returns to the ballot after a fame-prompted absence. We welcome still-famous Tech back to the fray and invite his fans to compete with those of Mac, the 'Tects, FtS and Split Lip, all of whose mantles are crowded with recent PMA trophies.
