The composition of RNF :
1. a). Rap Style Song - "performance in which rhyming lyrics are used, with or without musical accompaniment (usually with drums or electronic); while an MC performs spoken verses in time to a beat/ melody" . (Hip hop elements are included ) Also it can be done in a duet or band where one/more singers performs spoken verses and another singer/s completes singing (Eg: Eminem ft.Rihanna ) . All songs that have at least a verse sung in Rap tehnical style can take part in competition as a Rap Style song.

Every Edition we will be alternating between a and b .
2. Ballad Style Song - "one-movement musical piece with lyrical and dramatic narrative qualities." Usually it describes a song that has 30-85 bps. (eg Lara Fabian - Je suis Malade)
3. Pop Style Song -" As a genre, pop music is very eclectic, often borrowing elements from other styles including urban, dance, rock, Latin and country, nonetheless, there are core elements which define pop. Such include generally short-to-medium length songs, written in a basic format (often the verse-chorus structure), as well as the common employment of repeated choruses, melodic tunes, and catchy hooks."(Eg. A lot of Eurovision songs).
4. Rock Style song - All Rock variations, from Classical Rock to Symphonic rock, Metal,Gothic Rock, Death Metal(all kind of powerful songs, instruments: drums,bass electric guitars etc.-Eg. AC/DC's songs).
5. One Free Chosen Style song- no rules - here we can bring one song from the 4 categories or a native popular Russian song, Old songs, Instrumental etc...
All songs must have at least 1 verse in Russian (for the first 2 editions ). As you can see a modern song can fit in more then one category so it will take part in the category that I consider coinciding the most with its characteristics.
