Steemit Open Mic Week 110
My Top 5 In Order
As one of the 6 judges, and as an original artist also, I aim to represent the best original artists in this contest from our wonderful Steemit community. I am keeping my ears open for cover artists as well, don't worry but creating an original song is indeed impressive, especially if executed and performed well. Best of skill and performance to you all next week. This week was filled with so many wonderful artists, even amongst the high amount of entries, and there were still many talented performers who entered, so forgive me if I didn't list you, I definitely heard everyone's entries. Also, be sure to check out the other judges' top picks for the week, @krystle, @soundlegion, @passion-ground, @meno, and @luzcypher, who hosts the Open Mic Contest. See you next week!

4. @k0wsk1's "Burn One Down" By Ben Harper Cover Song
The cover maestro is here. You really brought out some creative and fresh vibes with this cool music video entry and had a lot of fun with the visuals. Your singing is on point, you played the drums and guitar well, a high caliber Open Mic Entry to say the least.

Artist On My Radar From Week 110
@lk666 @thealarmed @davidsuarezms @itslobianco @lenindrummer10 @mayneth @juliopalomo @orlandogonzalez @montanacellist @melbookermusic @maximilianoflute @elisonr13 @felixjfarfan @futuremind @senzenfrenz @siomarasalmeron @paulorenz16 @eugelys @josevallera
Apparently a lot of people don't know that I, @Verbal-D, am a Hip Hop Emcee as much as I am a singer/songwriter/beat producer, so I will continue to showcase from now on the song that inspired @Luzcypher to create the Open Mic Contest that we are all apart of today. I hope it inspires you to write original music.

Luzcypher's Announcement For Steem Witness
Hey!
I'm really honoured to be in your selection. It has cheered up my creative spirit after a few months in the shadows (and I generally don't really share music much anywhere. I make an exception for this community!!). This is such an important incentive for all of us ☆
I really enjoyed your Cryptocurrency rap too! So that's where openmic all started! "..Its all loove.."
