ASCAP and iStandard are excited to present for the third year this showcase opportunity at the EXPO specifically for producers and, for the first time, Rappers. Eight EXPO attendees, whose tracks were pre-selected by iStandard, will have their music played before a panel of prominent music industry tastemakers, who will then provide valuable constructive criticism for the benefit of the participants and the audience. Three rappers have been selected, via submissions from EXPO attendees, to perform as part of the showcase. The iStandard Producers Showcase has been held in 12 major U.S. cities. Prizes for the showcase winner courtesy of Native Instruments.
