Black/Smith Consulting is proud
to announce the third installment of the Big Stage Talent Challenge! If you
think you've got what it takes to become the next superstar singer or rapper,
here is your chance to show and prove. Let us put our money where your talent
is!
In a concentrated effort to
mobilize and challenge Detroit's talented dreamers to raise the bar as it
relates to their performance presentation while reaching for the stars,
Black/Smith Consulting has made it their mission to reignite the community's
interest in rallying to champion our hometown talent by rekindling the passion
for what Motown has always celebrated: Real music.
"This is not a talent
show," said Brandon Smith, co-founder of Black/Smith Consulting,
"it's an opportunity for Michigan's true talents to show up, show out, and
add another trophy to their press kit or resume, not to mention $500."
On June 9, 2012, fifteen
contestants will sing, rap or perform their hearts out before an audience of
their peers, and industry judges, at the Boll Family YMCA in downtown Detroit
for a chance to win $500 in cash!
This is a no holds barred
competition. Contestants will be judged on their stage presence, vocal ability,
costume and crowd participation by a panel of industry judges who will select
three contestants to advance into a final round that will be judged
Apollo-style by the audience to determine who will emerge victorious as the
winner of the Big Stage Talent Challenge.
The Big Stage Talent Challenge
is open to Michigan singers and rappers of all ages. Auditions will be held at
Star Factory, located at 13305 Capital in Oak Park, on April 29 at 4 p.m.
Applicants must be Michigan
residents and should be prepared to perform a two minute selection with no
profanity or explicit lyrics. The registration fee per group is $20.
