Pump You Up Songs Before/during A Competition

[Raymond G McKee]

What songs, genre, or artist do you like to listen to before or during a competition to get you pumped up to compete?? I usually listen to some classic rock, or alternative just because it is upbeat and I love the music

Vote on the polls for Genre and/or list your artist, song list in the comments!

For me, the time when I'm trying to get focused is all about looking forwards, and trying to do something worth remembering, but also looking back at my family and trying to make them proud.

Alot of the music is also about doing things for myself, because my parents don't approve of cheer, or dance, but I do it anyway.

I like to listen to hip hop songs that are catchy & upbeat. They usually are cocky songs so I get all pumped to perform & feel confident :)
