Producers contribute cleared, non-sampled beats to the platform, ensuring artists avoid legal complications. Upcoming Launch & Events Beta version is currently available on Apple & Google Play stores, with an official launch planned for June. A February event will introduce the app to the music community, featuring panel discussions with entertainment attorneys, sync licensing experts, and emerging artists. Hip-hop will be the first competition genre, followed by expansions into R&B, gospel, and other categories. Artist & Fan Participation Model Artists pay a $199 contest entry fee, gaining access to premium beats and promotional exposure. Fan voting is real-time and transparent, directly influencing competition results. Winners receive $5,000, legal services from McKinley Law Firm, and additional business support.
