Artists can be discovered by submitting an original song during the Contest Submission phase. As they progress through judging and public voting, they gain exposure and recognition. Along the way, artists may perform live at events and have their work featured through partner channels, helping to expand their audience, build industry connections, and create momentum for their music career. See what's at stake.
