He expressed that from his experience it's the place where musicians/ people really connect, collaborate, inspire, support each other & that your like/ upvote is worth something!

@beat5e8 had been on Steemit for about a half year already.
When I investigated I saw that he was making great connections in the SMA community & shaking up the music scene by winning music contest such as the Steemit Music League & the Beat Battle League Challenge both hosted by the dear @chiefmappster.

As I tend to first check out the terrain, get a feel for things, I posted my #Introducyourself four days after arrival & a few weeks after hopped right onto the Steemit Music League Challenge Week #9

I created the song "MU".
It was my very first entry into a music contest & guess what, I made 4th Place, whoop whoop!

Here is the post..

A show complementary to @inthenow's Blockchain Music Challenge where @jeffleinwand & myself are also judges.

Round 2 of the Blockchain Music Challenge is now live, ends this Sunday.

This was a rather hard one for me since I don't really talk about these subjects.
See, I don't like to dwell in the past nor on negative things, I am always up for a challenge though & like to push my boundaries!
I have to admit though scary, it was very releaving to open up in that way.

Like with my music I tried my luck in a few competitions.

When particepating in them I came across even more rad talent on this beautiful platform, mindblowing & jawdropping talent!

These are some competitions I entered ...
