Last week was a blast and this week?? Even better. I woke up to the sound of guitars, acapella, and enchanting voices all giving us the best while my ears jubilated at the the sound of it.
To be honest, I see a lot of good music these days and it's quite impressive. In comparison with previous weeks, I'd say there's been a massive improvement with the Vibes community.
You definitely can't compare the first week to the tenth, neither can you compare the tenth to the 20th. And yeah, there's no way you'll compare any of the weeks to Week 32.
I've seen the transition and growth of the Vibes community and I can say that there's more beyond what we see.
I mean, beautiful innovations, nice incentives and so many more.
Top 10 winners: A possibility or a fantasy
Now, this is a concept I've thought of for a while now.
I mean, we literally have over 300 entries on the Vibes Web3 Music Competition and that's crazy for a project with this amount of duration.
I feel there are so many beautiful entries that need further recognition by announcing them as one of the winners and what better way is there to do this than to increase the number of slots to about 10.

I think it'd be really cool to be honest. Sometimes highlighting an artist as part of the winners is just enough incentive, don't you think?
Well, ten beautiful entries out of 300 isn't such a bad idea.
It's just a little way of accommodating more interesting entries and reducing the mental stress that comes with selecting a few out of the numerous.
And you know what this means? It means leaving out some outstanding entries that were supposed to be included in the winners' list ideally.
But nah, limiting the winners' list to six creates a lot of stress when deciding between numerous entries while giving the judges a hard time at the same.
It doesn't solve the whole problem of accommodating more beautiful entries, but it does help a whole lot.
And come to think of it, Ten is a perfect number for competitions like this, what do you say??
Incentives for musical ideas
Now, I've seen a lot of entries—the regular singing, playing instruments, lovely voice and so many more.
But what keeps a community or show thriving is when unique concepts are incorporated into it.
Take a glance at AGT. What makes this show interesting and increases anticipation from fans is the unpredictability of the next act to be performed.
Different skills the world hasn't seen before are always being created on AGT.
Now channel this concept to the Vibes Web3 Competition by creating extra incentives for artists who come up with unique musical ideas—creative ones.
Do this and watch how things spiral up from here. Trust me when I say artists hold back when they've got a whole lot more within.
For example, I recently saw an entry by an acapella group.
I've also seen a few band groups, and not just the regular singing pattern we see daily.
Don't you feel we can unbox new creative concepts? If you don't, I can.
Imagine using kitchen utensils to create music, what about that??
Or random objects to create a beat while singing, rather than just playing an original background instrumental of a song while making a cover of the same song.
What about bringing in DJs to showcase their skillful musical taste and combo?
At least I've never seen a DJ performance on the Vibes Competition.
Watch the likes of Marcin Patrzałek, "One Earth" and various unique musical performances on The Voice.
I could keep going on and on, but I'm quite sure you get the concept.
By incorporating this, engagement would skyrocket, the enthusiasm and massive upgrade from artists would be crazy.
One way to do this is to give special recognition to it or else no one would take it seriously.
And one great way of doing that is to build a pool of incentives/rewards for artists who come up with these mind-blowing concepts.
These are just my thoughts though.
I love contributing to this music community and watching this competition grow is the ultimate goal.
Don't forget, it's still the Vibes Web3 Music Competition and it's Week 32.
See you guys!
