One concise vertical performance. The qualifying vocal moment must appear within the submitted clip.
Starrality Vocal Challenge
OH, YOU SING
30 seconds. Any song. One high note.
Hit the note and you could win $100.
The Challenge
Any song. One high note. Hit it.
Record one continuous vertical performance of no more than 30 seconds. Sing any song and include one clearly identifiable high note as part of the musical phrase. We are looking for vocal control, pitch accuracy, musicality and a performance people want to replay.
Your entry may be a cappella or use accompaniment, but your live lead vocal must remain clear and audible.
The Moment
Build the phrase. Hit the note. Hold the screen.
The high note should feel earned, not pasted on. Choose a key and section that suit your voice, establish the musical phrase quickly, and let the note show control, intention and personality.
No stitched vocal takes, pitch correction, vocal tuning, lip-syncing or AI-generated/replaced vocals.
Original or cover. Entrants are responsible for using music permitted by the posting platform and applicable rules.
One sustained or featured upper-register note performed live and clearly audible in context.
Publish the video, tag @starralityapp, and include #OhYouSing.
The Prize
Hit the note. Win $100.
One verified Grand Prize winner receives a $100 cash prize or equivalent approved payment, subject to the Official Rules, identity verification and eligibility requirements.
Awarded to the highest-scoring eligible entry after panel review and verified audience scoring.
Winner recognition through Starrality and challenge-related social coverage when applicable.
The highest eligible audience-rated performance may receive separate recognition.
Judging
What makes the note land.
How accurately the singer centers and maintains the intended notes.
Breath support, onset, sustain, register coordination, dynamics and release.
Clarity, resonance and the effectiveness of the vocal sound for the performance.
Phrasing, rhythm, interpretation and how naturally the high note serves the song.
Authenticity, confidence, on-camera presence and replay value.
Starrality evaluation using the published criteria.
Verified viewer ratings during the published rating period.
Duplicate, automated, purchased, incentivized or manipulated ratings may be removed. Audience response contributes to the result but does not determine the winner by itself.
This is a skill-based challenge. Final score: 70% Starrality panel and 30% verified Audience Score. In a tie, the higher panel score prevails; any further tie is resolved by the higher Pitch Accuracy score, subject to the Official Rules.
