I've chosen Something To Dance For. Now, I know it's not part of Zendaya's debut album but the song is just so good that if you were to put it on her album it would fit in perfectly! It's one of my personal faves from Zendaya. So get your life with this energetic song!

-- Brooke Candy is a very SHOCKING, LOUD but talented woman. This song truly shows her rapping ability and also includes plenty of shock-factor, the video helps emphasis this.

Here is my 'First Impression' song from my flop artist Kerli.
I think the song represents her good, since she's kinda singing about herself.
Enjoy

I picked Back From the Dead, the opening track off Skylar's debut album Don't Look Down. The song represents Skylar to a T - moody and mysterious lyrics, a drum-driven Hip-Pop beat, and the inclusion of a Rap feature (in this case, Big Sean.) All are common threads between Skylar's discography, and she displays her endearing vocals on this track as well.

I was gonna write something but I only thought of a few things so I just decided not to.
But just so y'all don't kill me (for being the only male artist and all,) FYE was Adam's first single and started off his career, and the message of the song (being alive to entertain people) matches his skills as he's always using his voice to pull off a great performance. The song is also a good representation of what he sounds like and goes with his personality.

KingSebert
YUNGKALIMXEL- Azealia Banks
I thought that this was a genius entry. I agree with you that if Azealia had released this it would have definitely smashed and jump started her career, it's such a great dance track but at the same time shows her unique rapping skills
10/10
PeopleLikeUs- The Saturdays
To me this was just another generic dance song, nothing special about it.
6/10
VDK- Natalia Kills
I felt like such a boss while listening to this song, I wanted to destroy something. Overall, it's a pretty good song and the sound is different which is interesting.
8.5./10
izzy™- Zendaya
This song is amazing! It really made me want to go dance, and Zendaya's vocals are superb.
8.5/10
Girlicious- Brooke Candy
This was a very cringeworthy entry. I tried to get into it but I really couldn't. Her rapping skills came off as corny and try hard.
5.5/10
CrazyCat- Pixie Lott
It's an ok song, pretty generic but I really like Pixie's voice and I would like to hear more.
7/10
iHypeMusic- Kreayshawn
I've always liked this song, it shows off Kreay's rapping abilities while giving the haters the finger
8/10
Perdo- Jennifer Love Hewitt
Didn't really enjoy the song, but was surprised that Jennifer had those vocals!
7.5/10
Nnmmo- Kerli
As you could already tell by that thread I made, I really really love this song! It's so creepy and weird yet has this dreamlike/feelgood quality about it that I just love. Excited to hear more
10/10
Jake.- Skylar Grey
The production of the song is amazing and really adds to that nostalgic type of voice that Skylar has. I must admit that the rap part didn't do anything to the song which is why I can't give a perfect score.
9.5/10
Gatsby- Adam Lambert
I used to jam to this song a few years back and now I'm questioning myself why.
6.5/10
Brandensuxx- VERSA
Very cool song. I like the urban/rock sound that it has. The lead vocalist reminds me a bit of Amy from Evanescence.
8/10
t.A.T.u.- Vanessa Carlton
The song shows a very mature side of Vanessa, cute song.
7.5/10
Miles Caulfield- Arctic Monkeys
The song was kind of weird for me, probably because I'm not a fan of this type of music, the vocals were a bit boring but I enjoyed the lyrics.
6/10
MiMiLamb- Ciara
Really good entry, love the sound and the message that it brings. Hopefully Ciara sticks around.
8.5/10
prezli- Alexandra Burke
Amazing songs, it's so beautiful and Alexandra's vocals slayed me but something about it was missing.
9/10
Cristhian- Florrie
I've never heard of her but I'm glad that I did because this song is so different from what we hear today in terms of sound, all in all it's just a fun song with a retro feel to it.
8.5/10
Legend E- Foxes
I kept waiting for something to happen with the song, it felt empty at some points but Foxes vocals make up for it.
8/10
Nait Phoenix- Crystal Kay
Your artist is such a flop that I couldn't even find a Youtube link to the song you provided, but, nevertheless, it was a fun song and I enjoyed it.
7.5/10
SIM- Porcelain Black
I usually like artists that have raspy voices like P!nk but, Porcelain's voice did not fit this song at all and it was somewhat harsh to listen to
6/10
Miguel.- Michelle Branch
This was such a throwback song! Her vocals remind me a bit of Avril Lavigne and it works
8/10
Kyle.- Charli XCX
The song was a biT boring and bland but the production was unique and Charli's vocals are pretty good
7.5/10
Dancehall Queen- Sky Ferreira
I've never listened to a Sky song before but now I wish I had because this song is GENIUS. The vocals, the lyrics, the production, the sound everything is just fantastic.
10/10 (wish I could give it a higher rating)
ToySoldier99
YUNGKALIMXEL- Azealia Banks
Was NOT expecting to like that song as much as I did, Really enjoyable and great choice.
10/10
PeopleLikeUs- The Saturdays
It's a really cute dance song, amazing with beats by dr dre However, it is a little generic, it's still nice though.
7.5/10
VDK-Natalia Kills
Not really a fan of Natalia but this was a cool song, hopefully you can change my mind
8/10
Izzy-Zendaya
I love Zendayas album and I admit I was disappointed that you didn't use a track like "Heaven lost an angel" but listening to this, it was spectacular.
9/10
Girlicious- Brooke Candy
The lyrics are.... Good. But overall I didn't really enjoy the delivery and song.
5/10
Crazy Cat- Pixie Lott
Cute song, but it's generic and not really different.
7/10
iHypeMusic- Kreayshawn
I remember this song back in the day, it was my guilty pleasure song tbh. Love it.
10/10
Pedro- Jennifer Love Hewitt
It was really risky using that particular song. But for me it payed off, it was refreshing to hear something that wasn't trashy and generic.
10/10
Nnmmo-Kerli
Kerli is scary. The song was reflective in a way and I actually enjoyed it. Interested to see how you continue.
8/10
Jake.- Skylar Grey
It was actually pretty good, Ive heard "let me ride" and wasn't really impressed, but this is much better.
7.5/10
Gatsby- Adam Lambert
Sorry, but I just find Adam a bit odd, his music is very confused. It was an ok song, but nothing that I would waste money on.
4/10
Brandensuxx- VERSA
Interesting song, it was decent, too monotone for my liking.
6/10
T.a.t.u- Vanessa Carlton
Nice, airy, uplifting song. However maybe a bit boring.
6.5/10
Miles Caulfield- Arctic Monkeys
Really good! The lyrics are genius. Not into much alternative/Rock but the monkeys are pretty decent.
8.5/10
Mimilamb- Ciara
Ciara is one of my top 10 Favorite artists. BUT. I think you could have chosen better songs, overall though its still a great song and I'm just being picky lol.
9.5/10
Prezli- Alexandra Burke
It was a nice song and I felt a lot of soul radiating from her. I did think she was a man though in the first thirty seconds No shade.
7/10
Christian- Florrie
Oh, the song was pretty nice as well.
7/10
e437- Foxes
I liked Foxes single "Let go for tonight" so I was somewhat familiar with her voice. But after hearing this I'm actually shocked at how good it really is. The song is nice and empowering in a way. Great work.
8/10
Nait Phoenix- Cyrstal Kay
Really fresh song, I thoroughly enjoyed it.
9/10
SIM- Porcelain Black
I was surprised that I kind of enjoyed the song, but I think the video is what really captured me. Overall it was a cool song, not really my type but it was nice.
6.5/10
Miguel.- Michelle Branch
Cute song, kinda cheesy but I expected that coming from somehow who prefers the Circus Tour over The Piece of me residency. I did like the song though
8/10
Kyle.- Charli XCX
Who doesn't like a bit of Charli?
8.5/10
Dancehall Queen- Sky Ferreria
Not my type of music sadly, I tried to get into it but I couldn't. I appreciate the song but I wouldn't really buy or listen to it.
5/10
Alexanderao
YUNGKALIMXEL-Azaelia Banks
The attempt at a good EDM-style breakdown falls flat for me, and her singing is too monotonous in some parts.
5/10
PeopleLikeUsThe Saturdays
Though a decent song, it all sounds very artificial and forgettable.
5.5/10
VDK- Natalia Kills
I'm a fan of the sassy attitude, but these should be more beat in the verses as her voice isn't strong enough to hold up the whole song by itself.
6.5/10
Izzy-Zendaya
I like her voice, but it's too bubblegum for me.
6
Girlcious-Brooke Candy
My least favorite of the bunch; the rapping is tired, flat, and filled with unnecessary swears that drew my attention away from the song. The song sounds like something we might hear from Kreayshawn.
3.5/10
CrazyCat- Pixie Lott
A well-crafted dance-pop song, though it's slightly boring by the end.
7/10
iHypeMusic- Kreayshawn
The raps are slick and sassy, the beat is great with haunting sound effects in the background, but it almost feels that she's trying too hard to be 'street'.
7.5/10
Pedro-Jennifer Love Hewitt
It tries too hard to be dramatic and ends up sounding more like a musical number than a song you would buy.
6/10
Nnmmo- Kerli
I like the song's melancholy tone, but her vocals seem reserved and overproduced, especially during the chorus.
6/10
Jake.-Skylar Grey
I like her voice a lot, while both the beat and Big Sean's raps are woven into the song very well.
8/10
Gatsby-Adam Lambert
It's very well produced and performed, but sometimes sounds quite unoriginal.
7/10
Brandensuxx- Versa
A very good beat with an addictive chorus, but the verses seem a little rushed.
8/10
t.A.T.u.- Vanessa Carlton
The piano, guitar, and drums are layered really well, while the chorus is relaxing. It all seems slightly fluffy by the end.
8/10
Miles Caulfield- Arctic Monkeys
An excellent track, with a haunting yet foot-tapping beat and great guitar riffs. The chorus is awesome.
9/10
MiMiLamb- Ciara
It sounds like a very generic R&B track from the mid 2000s, but the chorus has some nice harmonies.
6.5/10
Prezli- Alexandra Burke
A very good, powerful song; the vocals are wonderful but the song is somewhat too sappy for me.
8/10
Cristhian- Florrie
A lively, energetic, easy-to-like track; what the vocals lack the drums and attitude make up for.
8/10
Legend E- Foxes
It almost seems lime she is singing in a different key than the beat; also, her vocals seem held back; she can do so much more (see Clarity).
7/10
Nait Phoneix- Crystal Kay
The piano is a great contrast from the otherwise factory beat, while her voice is good but it sounds like she is almost talking some of the chorus.
7/10
SIM- Porcelain Black
Her raspy, sassy voice doesn't go well with such an electronic, bubblegum-y beat, especially during the chorus. It's a clash of different sounds, and while I give props for being experimental, it feels very jumbled.
6/10
Miguel.- Michelle Branch
(no explanation)
6.5/10
Kyle.-Charli XCX
The beat is really good with a mysterious bass line, while the chorus is melodic and her voice is pleasant.
8/10
Dancehall Queen- Sky Ferreira
Right from the beginning the beats draw you in. They are not over-the-top, nor too simple, and the electronic effects are perfect. Her voice is like Lana Del Rey but better; it's a brilliantly done alternative-pop track.
9/10
Calculating the scores, they should be up within the hour. If you're eliminated don't give up, because there is a twist coming
KingSebert
Not none of the judges barely even knowing Adam and don't even like him at all. Well I guess I'm gonna be out quicK due to bias.
