IDEAL and Real World Studios Present 'Sharp Shotz Unsigned 09' a national music competition for young unsigned musicians to write and record a title track for each of the winning animations from the Sharp Shotz Animation Competition (watch the films at: www.sharp-shotz.com). Entries were of an incredibly high standard and came from all over the UK. But only 2 artists could follow in the footsteps of many of the world’s greatest music artists by recording their title tracks at Peter Gabriel's Real World Studios:
AJ from Swindon won the Drugs/Alcohol Category – ‘Booze Britain’:
“The message of the song is to bring awareness to the negative aspects of alcohol! if you are going to drink, do so responsibly.
The Sharp Shotz experience has been brilliant for me, it's opened so many doors and gave me the opportunity to record at the Real World studios. The Sharp Shotz team are great and are helping unsigned artist like my self promote positive messages through our music!" AJ (winner of the Sharp Shotz Unsigned drugs category).
Mr Rightvibe from Peckham South London with his song ‘Last Breath’ took first place for the Guns/Knives category
“I would say that my message puts across serious advice to people that even your own knife and gun can be dangerous. For example if I was to interview one of my friends why they see the reason to carry guns and knifes the first thing that comes to their head is “protection”…“self defence”…. “Because the roads are dangerous. If I was to ask them why they think the roads were dangerous I wouldn’t even wait for them to answer because I will tell them they play a big part in this. What they are doing is just influencing other people that carrying weapons is the right way to go about things when it really isn’t I should know I live in Peckham. I live in it…
When I won the competition…I knew that that this was the start of Mr. Rightvibe all my hard work and practice would soon bloom. I don’t see it as a dream anymore to become the artist I want to be that’s a mission I’ve already accomplished
I am Mr. Rightvibe”
Sharp Shotz has been established to promote young talent, raise awareness of the consequences related to guns/knives and drugs use, and promote and provide positive opportunities. Keep an eye out for the next Sharp Shotz Unsigned
