(Richard B. Jefferson, Esq.)

ENTER THE 50MICS TOURNAMENT CHALLENGE, ITS FREE TO REGISTER, ONCE SELECTED THERE IS A FEE TO SECURE YOUR PARTICIPATION IN THE 50MICS COMPETITION Send your music to be reviewed to 50micstournament5@gmail.com
50MICS Objective is to pick the best-unsigned talent from 5 different musical genres and blend the artists together to make albums of epic proportions.
We felt that many talented artist fall between the cracks simply because they are unable to afford many of the various avenues of exposure which exist in today. In many cases real creative people tend to have limited resources and therefore are unable to compete in an over saturated music business.
We felt it was time to level the playing field.
