The Something Awesome drawing contest

Draw Something Awesome win Something Awesome

This is a themed drawing contest, the theme being “something awesome”. To enter the competition simply submit a drawing of something which YOU think is awesome. This is entirely up to your perception and your idea of “awesome”, there is no right or wrong. The possibilities are endless, examples could include a time travelling car, Soulja Boy, a brick, a cat wearing roller-skates, your mum – just to name a few.

Stoked

I’ve been messing with the idea of doing a contest on the site for ages, but I wanted the entrants to do something creative as opposed to just an “email the answer to this question” type deal. The idea of having a music based contest for the producers/rappers crossed my mind, but being that a good majority of the people that frequent the site aren’t musicians I felt it excluded too many of the readers.. and I wanted this to be as inclusive as possible. Enter the “Something Awesome” drawing contest.

“I can’t draw!” I hear you say. That’s all good, neither can I. In the same way that someone who’s technically a great rapper doesn’t always make the good songs, we won’t be looking for the person who can draw the best. It’s all about your idea of what “awesome” is and conveying it. If it’s funny enough, clever enough, or artistic enough to catch our interest more than the others – you will win.

    Hey David,

    I have been following your career since 2002 – you’re NZ’s best lyricist and MC.
    I was so looking forward to your solo album and it was worth the wait, every joint bangs.

    Could you please tell me who did the artwork for your Something Awesome album cover and also for your I Get The Feelin Single cover? (I run a NZ design blog and want to give the album cover designer some love, its nice as work.)
    Have tried Googling but no dice – can you help please?

    Alana
