This may be a chance to show off your talent and win a huge grand prize of $10,000! Yup, ten grand!


Similar to American Idol, there is a new competition that is being launched by industry professionals for unsigned R&B and Hip Hop acts. There is a very large cash prize for the winners as well as the opportunity to be flown to Austin TX during the week of SXSW to compete in a final competition that will be shown live via web cast.

The competition is called FAMECAST [www.Famecast.com] and it kicked off yesterday. Famecast is entirely FREE for every artist to register! To enter an artist registers on Famecast's site under their respective genre and creates a profile, then they post a video of themselves playing and get the word out for everyone to vote for them!


The voting is done by the public so the artists should promote their Famecast page like crazy to enhance their number of votes! Industry professionals will review the top 25 choices, and the top 5 are flown out to Austin, Texas to compete for the grand prize of 10 THOUSAND DOLLARS and the chance to be crowned the "Famecast Fenom!"
