Boy band Seventeen earned its first ever nomination at the 2021 MTV Video Music Awards, MTV announced on its website Thursday.

The award ceremony will be held at the Barclays Center in New York on Sept. 12 and aired live on MTV.

Meanwhile, “Your Choice” landed the band’s first No. 1 on the Billboard Top Album Sales Chart after selling 20,500 copies the first week after its release on June 18.
