NOT A
POPULARITY CONTEST.

01 // SONGS

ORIGINAL ONLY

One unreleased original song per matchup, featuring both duo members. Submit four songs to prepare for every possible round.

02 // SCORING

JUDGES DECIDE

Each judge gives one overall score from 1–10. The official judges decide—not an audience vote.

03 // WILDCARDS

TWO LOSERS ADVANCE

Six Opening Round winners advance automatically. The two highest-scoring losing duos advance as Wildcard 1 and Wildcard 2 using the official judges’ Opening Round scores. Eight Quarterfinalists → four Semifinalists → one Championship matchup. No byes.

04 // TIES

JUDGE DISCUSSION

Tied matchup or wildcard scores are resolved through judge discussion about which song was genuinely better and where the judges lean. No audience popularity vote.
