Greetings to the entire Steemit platform!

We bring you excellent news, we have decided to carry out a project dedicated to the great musicians who make life for the platform. This week is the great launch of the Sing It contest made by singers and singers.

We know that there are several proposals and contests to support the musical talent of Steemit, however, in the last weeks we received very bad news: killerwhale ended the "Karaoke Contest"

Unfortunately for lack of support for the contest designed by the user Hive account@killerwhale the Karaoke Contest culminated after 39 weeks of bringing good prizes (20 SBD in total) towards people that showed their vocal talent in it.

This is serious sad news, especially due to the fact that in the Steemit's most prestigious musical contest (the Steemit Open Mic brought to us by Hive account@pfunk and Hive account@luzcypher) you can NOT sing without playing an instrument or with musician to be part of your performance.

So here is the good news!

Thinking of all those Steemians who enjoyed the mic every week we have created a great contest especially for singers to show their talent, delight us with their voices, dedicate songs and express themselves through the singing art. In this contest you can participate with or without track as they read! You can sing with instruments, with a karaoke track or a capella, the important thing is that you sing and show us your interpretation!

"Sing It"

A contest made by singers and for singers!

This contest is made to Steemit's vocal talents created by enthusiastic singers for the entire community.

• Are you a very good singer but you have trouble getting musicians or playing an instrument?
• Do you want to demonstrate your vocal quality to the big Steemit community?

If the answer is "Yes" then this contest is for you!

Prepare a camera (cell phone, webcam, laptop camera, etc.) to record yourself interpreting your favorite artists to impress the judges of our great contest.

Hey! but there are rules!

Like any good contest, there must be an order to perform the procedures with total normality, security and so we can enjoy a lot of good shares, good feedbacks and a good remuneration for it.

So, let's talk about the rules of the contest:

• A video must be recorded on the DLive platform. It is only allowed on this platform, if your video is on YouTube you also upload it on Dlive since it is the only accepted platform, this to give knowledge and greater use to this page that allows us immediate compensation for our work through upvotes like steemit.

• You must say the name of the contest and your user at the beginning of the video, that is, start your video with the following sentence: " This video is for the Sing it contest of Steemit, my user is @ ... ". This will be to know that your participation is recent and thus be able to consider it as valid.

• Your post should start by saying Sing it-contest (the song or the name of your interpretation).

• Leave the link of your participation in the comments of this post.

• You must use the #singit #music tags in that order and place the last two tags of your choice.

• The contest entries will start on the MONDAY days of each week and end the days FRIDAY of that week, that will give our jury two days to deliberate about it on their favorite .

• The contest will have on some particular occasions or weeks a weekly challenge, which will decide what kind of participation will be held (for that particular week), it can be a challenge by musical genre, by artist or by particular song, everything will be indicated in the post of the contest of each week.

Awards and aspects to consider:

In order to get the winners, the judges will be based on the following aspects:

• Tuning: Although it is a karaoke contest and karaoke is generally based on fun and not so much on the vocal technique aspect, we want this to be one of the best competitions for SINGERS specifically, then, a good singer must be in tune, right?

• Timing: As in aspect number 1, you have to take into consideration the way in which the singer falls into the song's tempo, then, if a singer knows how to use his resources so that the voice travels through the instrumental, it is a resounding success.

• Performance : This is one of the most important aspects to consider because it does not help that you have an amazing voice but do not have anything of show, your body language should go according to what you sing because as a singer the work is to demonstrate both the voice and the body the theme of the song, what was the composer wanted to tell us there, so we just have to leave everything of us inside our participation.

For the contest awards three prizes will be distributed, that is to say that there will be a total of three winners:

1st Place	2nd Place	3rd Place
6 STEEM	3 STEEM	2 STEEM

* _{As the contest grows in popularity we will be increasing the prices.}
