WINNER ONE: @beatseb with an average of 4.91 from the judging panel with “Simfunny of Distraction” winning 20 SBD and 10 Whaleshares for 30 points.
Wow what a beautiful and head banging track.
The first 1:30 you have some of the most epic and beautiful sounds in such a combo that it raises vibrations (mine a lot).
And then bring it on you start intertwining your epic guitar in there warming us up.
And the BAMMMMMMM at 2:15 you hit us with the most epic string of guitar playing I have heard in a while. Holy smokes man you re so epic.
I had to play the part from 2:15 to 3:03 so many times because I couldn't believe this was what I was listening to. Like I had the actual privilege to listen to it.
Thank you so much for sharing that with us and the awesome story behind the creation of this track.
You're storytelling abilities added so much perspective to this and I really love the length and style of it.

Ayyyy this is a summer hit right here.
What an incredible mixture an uptempo vibes, insightful lyrics, and a catchy hook.
I know you said this is an oldie of yours but I have learned sometimes music even if it was created years ago can have such relevance and impact in today's world.
There is no doubt in my mind this is a radio-type hit that could be played. The audience has never heard of it so it is fresh to them and I have a feeling audiences would dance the night away to this track.
The sound quality is so crispy and the beat and production is so catchy and upbeat it really helps to reinforce your verses and hook.
Thank you you two for creating this. I freakin love and it and if you decide to release worldwide this please let us know :)

WINNER THREE: @inthenow with average of 4.25 from the judging panel with "Le Cirque De Basse... " winning 6 SBD and 10 Whaleshares for 16 points.
No doubt one of my favorite EDM beats I have heard in a while. You start the beat off with such epic sounds EDM style club banger and then switch at :39 into the carnival music.
Didn't think it was possible to include carnival music in a beat but you do it so well. And then transition at 1:02 and then have such an epic ten seconds building up to the drop.
Man I can't stop smiling and nodding my head wherever I am when I listen to this beat.
If that's not enough you add more sounds into the beat around the 2:00 mark that absolutely blew me away. And then you throw in the carnival to end the track o weee epic.
My gut instinct tells me people would dance their faces off to this track.
Thank you so much for all the energy you gave me when I was listening to this.

WINNER FOUR: @makii with 4.13 average from the judging panel with “Don of the Amazon” winning 4 SBD and 10 Whaleshares for 14 points.
Holy smokes this is incredible. You start off so strongly with those vocals and then BAM at :44 you switch it to a Electronic Dance Music anthem.
The sounds you use in this beat are incredible and whatever Beats Per Minute you use in this works amazingly as it keeps me engaged and the audience dancing.
There is no doubt you can just put this on in the club and people will absolutely love it.
All the different sounds and how you interject those vocals in there makes this an incredible entry in my book.
Thank you for creating this art. Namaste

COMMUNITY FAVORITE: @jaderpogi with an average of 4.11 from the judging panel with "Let's Have Fun and Party" winning 10 SBD and 10 points.
Holy smokes man you are so incredibly talented.
You got from Beatbox master to vocalist and then back all 1:42.
This entry is so amazing because it gets us engaged both visually and
"Everybody party and..."
Love this part of the beat box as it is a nice switch-up in pace for my ears.
And man your vocals so amazing and smooth. We need to hear more of that this next week :)
Thank you for sharing your art with this community.

HONORABLE MENTION: @termitemusic with an average of 3.83 from the judging panel with "Cigars, ay?"
O weeeee love this jazz feel to this instrumental. The sounds and instruments you use holy smokes man incredible combination.
"We could die right here"
Haha love this injected in the beat gave me a jolt of energy.
And absolutely love your trippy video, it kept me engaged and definitely reiterated the another dimension aspect of your beat :)
Love the spooky feel at the end of your beat ended my ears on a high note.
This is such an ideal beat for the Fall season coming up and looking forward to listening to it more.
Don't forget to make a Steemit post so the community can support your art.
HONORABLE MENTION: @hilladigahackles with an average of 3.74 from the judging panel with "Vibrator"
Love this entry reminds me of Blink 182 with the hilariously awesome lyrics and vibe. I can't imagine how epic a music video would be to this song.
Your lyrics are so epic and telling a hilarious story that kept me engaged and involved in your song.
Some feedback from the judging panel was the first hook was a little high pitched compared to the rest of the song. Maybe you recorded it differently but the pitch turned of the ears a little bit.
I was smiling the entire song and I can tell you definitely had fun recording it back in the day when you did.
Thank you so much for being apart of this community. We need to get this in front of Blink asap :)

This concludes the analysis for Week Two.
The Steemit Music League Challenge is part of the Steemit Music League (SML) which incorporates the following contests, leagues, and challenges:
The Steemit Music League will have a leaderboard next week that is fed by the points earned by Steemians in each particular contest, challenge, or league.
Points earned can be redeemed at the end of each month for the cryptocurrency POINTS if they choose to. If they choose to redeem their points for POINTS then their leaderboard score is reset to zero and then can begin the climb back to the top.
So if you are confident in your skills, you will be able to redeem additional cryptocurrency monthly and then still have a chance to build your way back to the final challenge and the trip the Las Vegas.
The top three of this leaderboard at the end of the first seasons of the Steemit Music League (December 31, 2017) will be part of a live music challenge.
The winner will get a 7-day paid (lodging at the Palms Place and travel) to Las Vegas.
That's right the winner of the Steemit Music League will get a vacation courtesy of us to Las Vegas.
What better way to celebrate your championship than in Vegas.
Thank you to the Steemians who put their mind, body, and soul into their entries for this Week Two of the Steemit Music League Challenge. We appreciate all you do.

Namaste, bro. I am @chiefcrappster here to prevent @chiefmappster from smearing more shit all over Steemit, making absurd claims (ie. lies) and taking credit for others work! If you've never used the "mute" functionality, try it on @chiefmappster today! Jesus loves you. God bless.
Awesome week of music league challenge!
Really some awesome entries.
But for me one of them is outstanding. Of course this is a subjective opinion from me.
Since I started producing music I sometimes try to analyze tracks from other musicians. Really trying to get through all the layers of the track.
For me listening to @makii 's production is extremely entertaining. So much variation, changes and ways to use a single sample or fragment of the song. It is very motivating and inspirational for me.
I would never dare to judge the sound quality except of telling you that it sounds pretty good on my 80€ audio-system xD Which is actually the same I use for my music production.
@makii in case you read this: It would be really awesome to see you during your workflow or if you would give us some insights on how you produce your music :)
Looking forward to the next music league challenge ;)
Wow wow this is what the community is all about :)
Real feedback that can inspire.
Thank you so much for analyzing and sharing your expertise and knowledge with @makii and us. The more perspectives the better for everyone.
Teamwork makes the dream work :)
And me too will be announcing tonight my friend.
Namaste

Yo congrats to my bro @beatseb, his entry totally deserved 1st place. I would have been upset if he didn't. The judges are on point this week! He absolutely obliterated the competition with his masterpiece. I can't wait to collaborate with him no doubt. And many thanks and much love for blessing me with 2nd place. It was unexpected as you know how I feel about this song lol glad you were able to enjoy it to the fullest! Appreciate all your constructive feedback and efforts.
Thanks for your uplifting words B, I really appreciate your continuous support and no rivalry mentality..way to go @verbal-d, and congrats for the second place buddy. Yeah..I can wait for that collaboration too man..eager to hear how you gonna slay it..naahmean? (; Thanks to @chiefmappster, @vandigital, @danyelk, @jphenderson, @bambam808, and @instrumentals for doing a great work in general. Have a good one Ya'll. ♪ ♫
You're most welcome bro, I am working on it as we speak, and don't get it twisted! The rivalry mentality is there, but it is mainly against my self haha, always trying to best my previous limits and boundaries. As we all should. Definitely excited to finish this verse or verses.
I hear you @verbal-d I got that type of rivalry in me also, and as you mentioned we all should, which I don't think everyone has. Some folks are full of them selves without a backup while reaching a point of no return, you dig? :/ Verse of the verses..I hearz Ya. ☺
Definitely, self competitiveness is needed to overcome complacency like I referenced and spoke on in my rap entry The Great Design. I like how me and you have similar mindsets on certain topics. Our music is going to mesh well into something nice
Yeah I think so too B. The synergy will be heard distinctively. No doubt about it.
Yeah no doubt indeed. Stay tuned
Man righttttttttttt he did work on that track. That guitar holy smokes. And it sounds like his mastering his top notch as well ow eeee.
And you're welcome man it is so catchy and even @danyelk in Mauritius (and he has lived and been apart of music in almost every European country) thought the same thing. Something about it man.
Glad to do my part for the community and getting these dreams to come true.
God bless
Namaste
Yeah he is a top notch artist if I ever did hear one. This track was straight ridiculousness in versatility, delivery, melodies, transitions, dynamics, layering, and mood switching, all that good stuff. Looking forward to next week!
God bless bro
Amennnn my friend amennnn.
Will be announcing tonight o wee and thank you again for all you do.
I am ready! You're most welcome, alllll goood
Idk if you've sent out the whale shares and prizes for beat battle week. and Steemit music league yet bro but my open ledger is verbal-d, same as here, thanks in advance bro
Roger that buddy. I sent you some SMOKE and the Whaleshares from the #smlchallenge :)
And for everyone else @jphenderson has been out of touch for the past two weeks hence why we aren't caught up yet with the Whaleshares from the #beatbattle. So I might just have to buy them out of my own pocket instead. But we are waiting a little bit longer to make sure.
God bless,
Namaste
Many thanks bro you are doing a great job as a contest host, and community engager/leader. Appreciate the update. Hope jphenderson is doing well of course, I gotta message him on Discord and catch up with him
