Hip Hop Instrumental Contest #1


Details
Entries
SKIO’s A&R team is excited to hear your version of an original Hip Hop banger! For this contest, we’re listening for Hip Hop instrumentals with hard-hitting 808’s and a solid beat and groove. Your track should not have vocals as this is an instrumental contest only.
Be sure to submit your original Hip Hop instrumental by August 15th, for a chance to win some dope prizes! Whether the track is an old song that’s already done or a fresh new project, it doesn’t matter. Just give it your all!
The grand prize winner has a chance to make moves for their career, winning a 1-on-1 mentor session with ARIA, and receiving $150 dollars to spend on studio time, hiring vocalists, mix engineers, or your recording project. First prize also includes a LANDR Pro account and more!
Some artists you can reference are: Metro Boomin, Murda Beatz, Kenny Beats, and Mustard.
Every single submission will be heard by our team of A&R’s, so give it your all because winners will be selected by our guest judge, talented rapper / songwriter ARIA!
*Be sure your submission is originally created by you, and is not a remixed version of an existing track! *
Let’s show some <3 for our contest sponsors:
Stand out amongst the crowd. LANDR is offering 2 free WAVs ($20 regular value) to give your track the professional sound it deserves. Signup for a LANDR account here to get started.
Our guest judge, ARIA, has thrown a massively successful Remix Contest on SKIO in the past, and is a brilliant up-and-coming artist in the works. Follow ARIA on Instagram and Twitter to keep in touch with the man.
