Vibe x MBB

## Season Description

MBB spinoff collaboration with The Vibe on Discord.

## Season Themes

### Round 1: Dance

Submit a song that makes someone want to dance. I assume songs will be something to get you hype, but if it is contemporary.. tap dancing etc. please specify

### Round 2: Unconventional

You must submit an unconventional or unexpected song by your artist. This song must be…

A) A song where your artist broke the norm of what was expected of them and shocked everyone, in a controversial or groundbreaking way

B) A song where the artist broke the norms set by all artists on how to market or compose the song

### Round 3: Interlude/Instrumental

This round, the artists should submit a track in which the main focus is the instrumental or the artist only saying a few lines. This usually is an interlude or it is an opener/closer to an album, I will judge the tracks in the context of the album they’re in. If your artist doesn’t have good tracks like these, you can submit an instrumental of one of your artist’s songs instead!

### Round 4: Seasons

This round, you can submit any song from your artist that reminds you of a certain season (summer, autumn, winter, or spring). Please make it clear what season the song reminds you of, and why.

### Round 5: Visuals

This round, you must submit a video from your artist. It can be an official music video or some type of dance/performance video. Whatever it is, it must be some type of visuals (NOT INCLUDING LIVE PERFORMANCES OR CONCERT CLIPS). I don’t care if the video is flashy/high budget, as long as it matches the song well! If your artist doesn’t have a music video, please consult with me to discuss further options.

### Round 6: Time

This round, please submit a song by your artist in which the idea of TIME is important the song’s meaning. This could be talking about the past/future and how it relates to now, or the concept of infinity or never. Or a specific hour of the day or a calendar year. Please explicitly point out how time is related to your song (and how it contributes to your song’s overall meaning) when you make your submission.

### Round 7: Talent

This round, please submit a song that perfectly showcases one of your artist’s most beloved talents. For example… If your artist is known for their amazing vocals, I want a song with them singing impressively. If your artist is known for playing the guitar well, I want to hear a song where they use the guitar in it! If your artist is known for being an amazing lyricist, then submit a song with breathtaking lyrics.

### Round 8: Rainy days

Picture you are at home alone all day and it’s raining heavily outside nonstop. You sit throughout much of the day listening to introspective music and thinking about your life. What song by your artist would best fit this situation? What song would you want to listen to in this situation?

### Round 9: Debut

Because of Twenty One Pilot’s superpower, they had the sole power to choose the theme for this round. They chose to make the theme about the artists’ debut. You must submit a song that is on your artist’s debut album.

### Round 10: Live Performance

This round, please submit a visual video of your artist performing LIVE. This could be a clip of a concert venue or them performing at an awards show, or many other options. Whatever it is, it should have been a LIVE performance in front of a camera or an audience or both.

### Round 11: Nostalgia or Hope

Congratulations on being the final 5 contestants left in this special Vibe x MBB crossover.

For this round, please pick either NOSTALGIA or HOPEFUL. You should submit a song by your artist that best fits the sentiment you chose, and then send a short explanation of why you think it’s fitting when you send your submission. I will award stars based off of how much I like the song you submitted, and how well it fits the sentiment you chose.

Nostalgia: A longing or wistful affection for the past, typically for a period or place with happy personal associations.

Hopeful: Feeling or inspiring optimism about a future event.

### Final Exam:

For this final, the 3 remaining contestants will be graded in several categories. The max score they can receive is 100%, the minimum score they can receive is 0%. The contestant with the highest score will be declared the winner of the crossover between The Vibe and MBB.
