Vocal Edge Competitions

September 6, 2017

Vocal Edge Competitions

What is Vocal Edge?
Vocal Edge is a competition brand which has existed in various mediums for over ten years.
In its current format, running with the excellent provision of the ‘Smule Sing!’ platform, Vocal Edge has been running for the last two years.In that time we have run EIGHTEEN successful competitions, with a total of 5516 unique contestants, and judging 8938 songs.  Our biggest season yet was Season 4, which had a massive 1954 contestants (making us the biggest competition to date on the platform)…!
Every song receives honest critique, and allows singers to not only understand the reasons for their scores, but to improve week upon week, or continue to succeed based on what the judges loved!
What is it about?

We have our main competition, which spans a variety of genres and encourages vocal versatility, but we also began the trend of spinoffs from a mother competition, starting with Musical Theatre back in 2015, and now adding multiple others genres including country, rock, and original songs.

Our main competitions are for individual contestants, but we also have our duet competition ‘It Takes Two’ and our group competition ‘Battle Royale’, so as you can clearly see, we truly do have something for everyone.

Who are the most recent winners?

We most recently completed a cycle of FOUR spinoffs, and our most recent winners were…

COUNTRY CRUSADE 2 (Country Music)
https://www.smule.com/iSuperKrista
UNWRITTEN 2 (Original Songs)
https://www.smule.com/Just_Duet
BIG BROTHER

What’s next?We have Season Six of our main competition coming up very soon in which we will be accepting EVERY audition into the competition (starting from 17th September), as well as more of our spinoffs and a brand new concept in 2018 called “VE: Streamline“.

How can I find out more?

#LaJuanaPicksSoul Playlist with @Lajuanaylise

September 5, 2017

#LaJuanaPicksSoul Playlist with @Lajuanaylise

To celebrate our talented community, we decided to take it to the ones who knows it best – the community! Each month we will have a user to curate and feature talent and overall passionate singers and entertainers. We are happy to introducing Monthly User Picks Playlist!

How does it work?

Each month we take a user who excels in a category (Jazz, CosPlay, acoustic, instrumentals, accapella etc) and leave it to them to operate a playlist on our explore screen in the Sing! App.

We will be announcing the personality on the first day of new month and the playlist will be started the same day, so feel free to reach out to that personality if you have related performances you think deserved to be featured. It’s up to the personality on how often the playlist will be changed. We are expecting it to be rotated 2-4 times/month.

For the month of September, we are featuring @Lajuanaylise with some good soul tracks! 

LaJuana is artistic to the core. As the mother of one adorable 5yr old boy, she struggles to find time for herself but when she does, she usually spends it creating. Whether it’s creating or joining an open call for the talented folks of Smule, decorating a cake, sewing or diy-ing.

Musically, she is a diverse artist who got her beginning singing in church choirs. Her sound is influenced by SWV, Lauryn Hill, Brandy, Monica, Alanis Morissette and classic jazz artists like Sara Vaughn and Ella Fitzgerald. As a singer/songwriter, creativity is something she has never lacked and her arrangements never seem too dull on color.

No matter the genre she tackles, she sings from her soul. Her main focus when performing a song has always been “Can people FEEL what I’m singing?” She believes that singers should convey the emotions that the lyrics intended. Soul music to her is music sung from and felt in ones soul…

Smule star Liam meets hero Shawn Mendes

Liam+Shawn

August 28, 2017

Dream big, put yourself out there, and you never know who you’ll meet.

It’s not every day we get to tell a story like this one. Meet Liam, the talented 4-year-old who’s been taking Smule by storm:

MeetLiam

Liam discovered his love for music at the ripe age of 2. When he’s not melting the hearts of the internet, Liam enjoys soccer, playing guitar, and rocking out to his favorite artists: Frank Sinatra, and Shawn Mendes.

Around 10 months ago during the #SingWithShawn event, Liam seized the moment & recorded this masterpiece:

The video swarmed social media, gaining millions of views, retweets, hearts & smiles. Guess who noticed?

On August 11th, with the help of loving parents Luke and Monika, Liam made it happen. Backstage at a show in Toronto, Liam was face-to-face with his idol Shawn.

Liam+Shawn

We love Liam’s story, because it shows that he had the courage to reach for the stars. What’s Liam’s advice to others? Put yourself out there, make something, never stop singing. Actually, he’s more articulate than we are, Let’s hear it from the man himself:

ROCK ON SMULEANS!

Don’t forget to follow Liam on Instagram and Twitter — it’s only a matter of time before he’s selling out his own shows.
