In our community it is prohibited to separate the introductory words from the musical performance. It must be a single video where you indicate that it is for Hive Open Mic, the week number, your username, and the song to be performed. This is to ensure that it is an exclusive recording for Hive Open Mic and that you are not reusing old videos. Please keep this in mind.
Another part of our rules is interacting with other artists, visiting and commenting on posts you like, or at least responding to the comments that people kindly leave you each week. We invite you to read our Community Guidelines to make valid entries in the future.
