Hollywood, Calif. - ExploreTalent.com's "ExploreTalent Idol" contest is well under way, with a groundbreaking 1,600 contestants in the first week since the contest kicked off. The drama is unfolding after the first week with several contestants breaking away from the pack of hopeful artists. With two weeks left to vote, the contestants are doing everything possible to generate votes and fans.

ExploreTalent Idol also announced that contest voters will share the excitement with daily cash prizes. Each day of the contest, a lucky voter is chosen as the "Daily Cash Winner" in which one lucky voter wins $100 just for voting for a contestant and following the results on Twitter. Daily cash prize winners will then have a chance to win a Grand Prize of $1,000-$2,000 at the end of the contest.

The ExploreTalent Idol contest officially launched on July 23 and will close entry on August 18th with the winner(s) being announced shortly thereafter. All competing artists upload an MP3 of one of their songs, or a music video within the urban music genre (R&B, Hip-Hop or Rap).

The winner of ExploreTalent Idol will be flown to the luxurious Eden Roc Hotel in Miami, Florida for an amazing two-night stay from August 21st to the 22nd. The winner(s) will participate in the celebrity meet and greet then take the stage on August 22nd at 7:00pm at the American Airlines Arena in Miami, Florida, where they will perform the first 12 minutes to kickoff the SummerFest 2009 concert. The winner(s) will open up for urban icons T-Pain, Akon, Ne-Yo, Keri Hilson and Flo Rida, to name a few.
