Indie Orlando singer/songwriter recently won Best Song for his anti-bullying dan

ce pop anthem Be Myself in the 3rd edition of the original songwriting competiti
on the Worldwide Music Contest out of over 1200 entries from songwriters all ove
r the world. Be Myself is an inspirational electronic pop anthem about embracing
your individuality. Craymo dedicates the song to anyone who has ever been bulli
ed, teased or made fun of for being different.
Craymo is a LGBT artist and was bullied growing up for being gay and also for we
aring glasses. Craymo says: "I grew up gay and was bullied and teased as a teena
ger and young adult and had to pretend that I was straight to keep from being bu
llied, verbally and physically. I wanted to give back and create a song about em
bracing your individuality, an empowering song about courage to possibly help th
ose who may be going through the same things with their self-confidence. I want
to let kids know that it is OK to be different, it's OK to just be yourself, no
matter what anyone else thinks." Gary Root, reviewer for Skope Magazine summed i
t up: "Craymo makes musical magic with a message in this upbeat, dance party wit
h passion and purpose. In music, breaking rules and challenging conventional wis
dom are often deliberate efforts to establish a marketing niche, but for Craymo
it probably feels more like natural state of mind and being."
"Be Myself" serves up an inviting pop dance number geared to blending 1980's pop
like George Michael and some of todays chart topping music like Olly Murs, Will Y
oung, Ronan Keating, Robbie Williams and Maroon 5. Be Myself also won Best Pop/R
ock Song in the August 2015 Akademia Music Awards and was a finalist for Best Po
p Song in the 2016 Indie Music Channel Awards and finalist for Best Pop Song in
the 2015 Hollywood Music In Media Awards. Be Myself also recently held the #2 po
sition on the Euro Indie Music Chart.
