"KILL THE PAD" WINNERS WEEK #3 - SPONSORED BY STEEM MUSIC ALLIANCE

What is Kill The Pad Challenge?

Kill The Pad challenge is a weekly topical text based rap competition for SBD. Why am I starting a text based rap initiative? We have many creative writers in the hip hop community. One doesn't have to get onto the mic to show their prowess with lyricism. This will benefit the less experienced and the more experienced alike. Topicals are always a good exercise. It's all about elevating together, learning from each other, and growing as an artist.

SMA

This challenge is sponsored by the SMA. If you are a musician, singer, song writer, rapper, or musically inclined in any way, head over there and connect with other musicians! An invite button is at the bottom of the post.

Dsound

This contest is made with help of @dsound so I can not thank enough for this beautiful initiative. Dsound is a platform connected to Steemit that allows you to upload your music and sounds in a similar fashion like Soundcloud. Make sure to join Dsound Discord channel here.

Her post

She is consistently getting better and better every week. That's what I really like to see, elevation. She takes the criticism and really implements it. Signs of a true artist!!! I really dig it! This week she really came at the topic full force and smashed into the divides that many places around the world are facing right now, but particularly the States. Really loved her words and attitude, dig it.
