The Gospel Musician's American Idol
February 16, 2008: Glorifying the Ministry of Music, CIGS Inc. has developed the gospel musician's version of American Idol (online) called Lyrical. Lyrical is an online gospel talent competition where we provide the lyrics and you compose the music.
For a nominal entry fee of $35, artists will gain access to a set of 10 lyrics that they can compose music to in the following categories: urban contemporary gospel, southern gospel, soul jazz, jubilee, a cappella, holy hip hop and gospel blues. Registration: February 11 - May 31, 2008.
Artists can submit their music via mp3 or any digital format (preferably online for quicker processing) for consideration for our final presentation of musical interpretations. From July 6- August 10, the entire gospel community will vote on the finalists CIGS Inc chooses as the best creative interpretations of each lyric.
Winning artists will receive all star treatment during Lyrical Week (August 25-Sep 1, 2008) where they will take part in a publicized press conference, an awards banquet to celebrate their winnings, a professional photo shoot, professional recording sessions to record their winning entry and a live performance at the Lyrical Concert finale.
If all a musician ever needed to compliment their amazing tracks or super band were powerful and moving lyrics, then Lyrical is the competition they need to enter. NOTE: All artists retain FULL AND COMPLETE OWNERSHIP OF THEIR OWN WORK. CIGS Inc is NOT a record label or artist management company.
