The best aspect about Songwriting Contests
There are a lot of benefits of entering a free songwriting contest. However, some writers are skeptical to participate and send their songs for a variety of reasons. While competition usually brings out the best in aspiring songwriters, you need to consider the other side of the coin a well. If you are considering one or more songwriting contests to submit your music to, you should be aware of several factors.
First and foremost, it is important to determine the reason for taking part in the songwriting contest. Although there are several other entries the judges will be hearing, you should never compete against anyone else when writing your songs. A better approach would be to compete with yourself in a healthy way that improves your creativity and writing skills. It is not about comparing your song to someone else's song; rather it is about realizing and achieving your own personal goals.
The eminent judges will consider several parameters and make a decision in every songwriting contest and you will have no control over their decision. However, you can control your response to the judges and the situation. Every time you take part in a songwriting contest or submit a song, you are opening the doors to feedback and potential criticism. Generally the judges are music industry professionals, so their feedback can be very valuable. Whether the decisions of the judges go in your favor or not, it is always helpful to be receptive to new perspectives. Listen to their advice and think of it as a learning experience.
The songwriting contest offers other advantages as well. The aspiring contests will offer exposure to your music. The best part about these songwriting contests is that, not only winning song gets the prize, but all the entries get heard, and you never know who will be listening to your songs. Often executive producers from film and television come as judges to select the winners. They look for music to place in various television shows and pull songs aside as they hear them. That kind of an event will lead to multiple contacts and unlimited opportunities for all of the contestants.

In case u missed yesterday’s statement regarding MY DAUGHTER Madison: Let’s get things clear 4 EVERYONE. She is my daughter ! I am her FATHER ! Doesn’t matter if I am biologically her father or if I adopted her or if a father figure was absent in her life the last 9 years of it or not. What matters is from the moment I laid eyes on her I knew that WE BOTH we’re put into each other’s lives for a reason. Her birth father, whomever he is, might have been absent from her life since her birth but that’s not mine nor ur business so I’ll respect him in that aspect & simply state that a void needed to be filled in her life & after already falling in love with her for the months prior to me accepting the role of her FATHER, I had several conversations with her mother (who has a great job & works very hard for all of her children & doesn’t NEED or hasn’t asked me for a thing) we agreed that I would take the place as Madison’s FATHER for the simple fact that I was willing, capable & emotionally, physically & financially available to be there for her. I have taken the role of FATHER very seriously with my 3 already prior to adding Madison to MY FAMILY so 1 more is nothing more than an easy task & I’m just as excited to have her as she is to have me ! She is not the daughter of 1 of my friends that died as the internet suggested, nor is her mother struggling or in need of any help raising her children. The thing is, there was a beautiful little girl who was in need of a father & who more perfect than ME ? So with that being said, Madison is MY DAUGHTER & I AM HER FATHER ! NOTHING WILL EVER CHANGE THAT ! I will be here for her, @littlemisscali @kingjusticetaylor & @harlemtaylor long as I breathe & MY 4 CHILDREN will never have to worry about ANYTHING !!!! & for those haters I see in my & her comments, worry bout your OWN kids ! Shit 1/2 y’all need to be worried bout trying to get ya own dead beat as baby daddy’s to step up & be 1 tenth of the father I am to my kids. One thing is fasho, your opinion is NOT going to change the fact that I will be @daddyslilworld’s FATHER FOREVER ! That’s my baby girl, get used to seeing her. Sincerely, her FATHER !
