Revision as of 18:32, 20 May 2022
The Singing/Rap and Recording Challenge, also known as the Music Challenge or Girl Groups Challenge, is a challenge where the contestants' songwriting and singing skills are put to the test in order to win the main challenge. They also need to perform live or lip sync the recorded track.
Similar to this challenge, the Rumix challenge was introduced in All Stars 2 as The Finale Challenge where Queens have to write their own verses for one of RuPaul's songs.
This challenge is not to be confused with the Rusical Challenge where the contestants are typically given their verse which they will either need to record or sing live as well as learn choreography too.
