Add content advisory. Did you know Edit. User reviews 2 Review. Top review. Details Edit. During the team co-write, it is all-out war with one songwriter screaming sabotage. The five remaining songwriters take a personal step towards empowerment using one of Jewel's all-time favorite lyrics.
While one team struggles to finish their song, the other struggles to communicate. The winning songwriter is rewarded with a feature in SPIN, while the losing team pleads their case to the judges including Grammy winning singer-songwriter Colbie Caillat, in an intense and teary battle to make it to the final four. For the first time in the competition, the final four contestants must work alone in the writing process as they test their skills in the realm of pop music. The songwriters prepare themselves to be judged by their harshest critics yet, high school students.
These notoriously fickle fans and guest judge Taio Cruz are forced to make the most difficult decision of the competition and decide the final three songwriters that will move into the finale. With no topic and no parameters to bind them, the final three songwriters must write the song of their lives. Some of the most influential names in the music industry weight in as super-producer JR Rotem and hit songwriter Evan Bogart visit the contestants.
Megastar Leona Lewis helps the judges crown one songwriter the next big hitmaker. Viewers get an insider look of contestants writing and performing lyrics each week until one is crowned ultimate hitmaker! Description Bravo's new music competition series Platinum Hit showcases emerging singer-songwriters on their quest to become the next big hitmaker.
Million Dollar Decorators, Season 2. Unless a viewer came to Platinum Hit with working knowledge of how a song becomes a hit, the process and the standards remained murky. Those performances were usually terrible, but the quality of their vocals was irrelevant to the competition, much as they would be irrelevant in the industry. I mean, the first day it was like we were literally figuring out the show as we went along.
The exception is episode five, in which Elise is awarded immunity, thereby shielding her from elimination the following week. Elise winds up on the losing team along with dance-pop expert Scotty Granger and genre polymath Jackie Tohn after failing to craft a satisfying country song.
With Elise holding immunity, only Granger and Tohn are eligible to be cut, and they work much harder at defending their right to stay. Tohn, who gets eliminated, seems genuinely unable to remember who did what in a highly collaborative, time-compressed process, much less convey the details of that process to the judges.
At least by that point, the judges had more or less figured out how to cross-examine the songwriters to get as much information as possible. The final six contestants are paired off and given two hours to write as many hooks as possible, then put in front of Bogart, who asks them to pitch a hook for a specific artist. As usual, Nittoli belies his dickish demeanor and is fully amenable to working with Marnell in spite of their past beefs.
Nittoli, furious, accuses Marnell of sabotaging the song to get him booted, a criticism that intensifies when the judges hate the insipid tune.
The more likely explanation is that Marnell had an auspicious pitch meeting with a like-minded artist and wanted sole credit for the song should DeGraw decide to record it.
Alas, it came too late. The songs Platinum Hit created were often sound, even though the hour-length commercial for them was usually tone-deaf. One-season wonder, weirdo, or wannabe? Wannabe, with a frequently catchy soundtrack. Next: A rose by any other name may smell as sweet, but the modern-day Romeo And Juliet adaptation Skin flamed out in one season. LaToya Ferguson weaves its tale of woe.
