If you rap or sing, you are free to use the song's instrumentals to perform as long credits are properly given to the original artists. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll have to record yourself or we won't be able to verify if you are really performing and respecting the criteria of the contest.

The video can be unlisted but please note that your submission, if you are chosen for the event, will be open on Soompi for voting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seongiseul Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 (edited) For the video, could we post a video from Smule sing? Edit: Additional question; can the video be edited in any way, or does it have to be raw? Edited August 21, 2016 by seongiseul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The video can be edited, it is up to the performer to decide if the edit is beneficial or not for the qualification. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got any idea on what grounds we could make it? I checked looks but that ship has sailed a long time ago (and we both missed it), even my bathroom asks me to stop singing, while rapping I keep coming up with "Ehm.." and "Erm..." followed by a long silence in which I search for compatible rhyme words online and last time I danced, people thought I was caught in a hurricane. Much like the above pic, I'd might add. Perhaps I could be the silent Masked Singer? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can send in multiple videos in multiple categories, but please note that we will only show 1/category if you are chosen to move on to the first round. If singing and dancing are separate entries, it means you'll have to send two different submission forms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's easier to sing with instrumentals through Smule, and you can record yourself singing it through that app, then download the video from desktop. Is that allowed?
