About this challenge
TikTok has taken over—the social media world, and IRL. Getting onto the “For You” page quickly became everyone’s quarantine goal, and this certainly didn’t stop once quarantine did. But with such a huge volume of content to go through on TikTok, we’re sure that we missed some awesome posts that should’ve gone viral. So, we want your help in giving these overlooked TikToks the attention they deserve.
Is there a TikTok you saw—or even one you made yourself!—that you’re obsessed with, or wish more people had seen, or believe deserved to go viral? We want to hear why you loved these so much. Enter the For You Challenge and embed the TikTok you want to highlight. Then, tell us what about it makes it so great, and why you think it may have been overlooked in the first place.

From across the room (or rather, the screen), the Vocal Team fell head over heels in love with nearly 3,500 poems submitted to the Vocal+ “From Across The Room" Challenge. Inspired by the idea of love at first sight, the Vocal creative community once again delivered with heart and soul. After a month and a half of reading love poems, and with final judging by Kirun Kapur, esteemed editor of the Beloit Poetry Journal and creative writing professor at Amherst College, we are thrilled to announce our winners.
