In Episode 3 of Beat Shazam, the musical game show continues as teams of two compete against each other and the clock to identify songs in various genres and eras and win cash prizes. Hosted by actor and musician Jamie Foxx, the show features DJ and comedian Corinne Fox as the "Deejay" who provides music and commentary, and the audience gets to participate in the fun by singing along and dancing in the stands.
The episode begins with the first round, "Here Comes the Boom," where the teams must identify songs with "boom" in the title. As the music starts playing, the teams frantically try to hit their buzzers and shout out the answers, sometimes getting them right, sometimes getting them wrong. The tension rises as each correct answer earns the team more points, and the clock ticks down to the final seconds.
After a commercial break, the second round, "Party Playlist," challenges the players to identify songs that are popular at parties and clubs. The music ranges from classic hits to contemporary chart-toppers, and the teams must not only recognize the songs but also guess the artist and album title. Some teams thrive under the pressure, while others struggle with the fast-paced game and get eliminated.
In the third round, "Battle of the Decades," the remaining teams face off against each other by choosing a decade, from the 1960s to the present, and identifying songs from that era. The catch is that the teams must also guess the year of each song's release, adding another layer of difficulty. The teams that perform the best in this round advance to the final round, where they have a chance to beat Shazam and win the grand prize of $1 million.
In the final round, the teams must identify six songs in just 30 seconds, with each correct answer earning them $25,000. If they manage to identify all six songs before the time runs out, they win the jackpot of $1 million. However, if they make a mistake or get stumped by a song, they lose all their money and leave the game empty-handed. The teams are nervous and excited as they step up to the podium, knowing that they have a huge opportunity to change their lives and become champions.
Throughout the episode, Jamie Foxx adds his signature humor and charm, cracking jokes with the contestants and engaging with the audience. He also gives personal insights into his own musical tastes and experiences, sharing stories of his collaborations with famous artists and his love of hip-hop, R&B, and soul music.
Overall, Episode 3 of Beat Shazam is a high-energy, entertaining game show that tests the players' musical knowledge and rewards them for their skill and quick thinking.
