Boys will be boys (HEY!)

[Temporal]

Welcome to the finals of Platinum Hit 9! After eleven weeks of challenges, there's only three of you left, and one challenge separating you from the hands of glory...

CHALLENGE #12
THE DEBUT CHALLENGE

This challenge finds a happy medium between the finales of Platinum Hit 7 and 8. For this challenge, we ask that you submit THREE songs as if you are a new artist and this is your short, debut EP.

SONG #1
Your best song from this season. Whichever you feel is your strongest entry, one that encapsulates your greatest strengths and talents. Send it once more.

SONG #2
A new song. You may write about whatever you choose, but you need to make a last, final push for the crown with this song. This should be your NEW best song from the competition. Don't **** it up.

SONG #3
This may be an old song from this season or a brand new one. The choice is yours.

NOTES

- You may turn your intro, outro or interlude from Round 1 into a full-length piece for this challenge.

- You can polish a song, but not re-write it. By polish, I mean that if you don't like a word or a rhyme or even a full line, you can change it if you wish. But if you don't like the entire chorus, you can't write a new one from scratch. What you will submit has to be close to your original submission, with a few necessary tweaks here and there. Use your best judgement here.

- We will NOT be using the same scores for songs that we have already read. We won't just use your already existing scores for 2 reasons :1) the songs will be improved / tweaked or in case of a short song being submitted, they'll be double the length of the original entry, 2) The standards and circumstances have changed. There are many great entries that might have been underrated due to the round being too strong or your entry being overshadowed and there are many subpar entries who might have been just a bit overrated for the opposite reason! This time, there will be no other factors other than the quality of your songwriting!

- Also, there will be FIVE judges this round: swiftie13 will be returning to the panel!


Entries due (via PM to me) Friday, August 5th, 9:59PM EST.

Okay, but let's talk about how I'm literally you this season. I'm gonna get the same placement in the finale too, I know it.

Tbh do me proud though (tho technically I was #1 during the semi finals because we had to write two songs and I had the second and third highest scoring ones and best combined average but TEMPORFAT had the #1 song stupid 9 Rigs) Become that contestant that wins a seaosn without having official #1's it'll slay

[Hugamari]

Yikes, 3 songs and I can't even get a #1 during a week with one song. Kii.

To paint me as a Mexican named after a hussy of a father is character assassination. I would very much like to be excluded from this conversation, one I never asked to be a part of, since 1995.

lovesong and I had made a deal that we'd work with each other if we were given the opportunity. I was taken before the challenge was even announced dkfjbsjl
