STEEMIT BEAT BATTLE LEAGUE: WEEK 1 (SBD & WHALESHARES PRIZE POOL)

in #beatbattle7 years ago (edited)

Music lovers, beat makers, & producers of Steemit, today starts the Beat Battle League judged by @rondonson , @chiefmappster , @jphenderson , and @tuck-fheman .

The goal of the Beatle Beat Battle League (design from @rondonson) is to highlight the talents of producers apart of the Steemit community providing an unique avenue for the beatmakers of this community to showcase their skills and have a chance to win a prize pool consisting of SBD and Whaleshares.

Yes, I said the epic token, Whaleshares, will be offered as part of the prize pool because of the generous efforts of @jphenderson . If you are unfamiliar with the innovative Whaleshares, I included a link at the bottom to help.

The League will consist of weekly beat contests just like @rondonson 's Rap Challenge. Each week the material sampled will be different and correlate with the Rap Challenge's theme.

We will also have a leaderboard for the Beatle Battle League that will be updated each week.

At the end of the Beatle Beat Battle League, one champion Steemit beatmaker will be crowned and awarded the Beat Battle League Championship Belt.

Every Wednesday, I will post two (2) new instrumentals for participants.

Download the instrumental and upload a link (YouTube links perfect) of your beat sampled from the instrumental

Upload the link and post it here on SteemIt with the first tag as #beatbattle

Post your submission as a comment on the beat battle blog submission post on Friday.

Links no longer than 2 minutes long.

Make sure to put a tag of your Steemit username in the beat so we know you created it.

Post can include information on how you created the beat.

Every Monday, I will create a blog post and all the people who are participating in the contest for that week MUST post their submission as a comment onto that post.

You can also post your link on your own blog, but in order for your submission to be judged, you will need to submit it directly on the blog post.

Still post it up on your blog for your followers to see though, and don't forget to use the #beatbattle tag as the first tag in your post.

And don't forget to read the rules, we cannot wait to see all the entries from all over the Steemit community

great idea ...................the samples for week one could have been better though

Take it up with @rondonson my man. He picked them, we are a team each of us does some to make this happen.

these samples are used in about 30 different classic hip-hop records.

heres a better place to get samples .........http://vinylfrontierreefali.blogspot.com/

maybe the james brown jawn ..........i tend to stray away from over used samples its cool though

Maybe incorporate these beats into the #rapchallenge after they have been sampled. Hmmm...

Ayyyyyyyyy now we are talking my friend now we are talking

That right there is a good idea as well bro! What a fusion

hey you inspired this Discord channel. One place for everyone that is apart of the Rap Challenge and Beat Battle
