Sing It On is a musical reality show that premiered on Pop TV in 2015. The show is produced by John Legend and follows the journeys of four college a cappella teams as they compete in various competitions across the United States. The show features four different groups - The AcaBelles from Florida State University, Off The Beat from the University of Pennsylvania, Faux Paz from the University of Maryland, and the Hullabahoos from the University of Virginia. Each episode follows the teams as they rehearse and prepare for upcoming competitions.

The AcaBelles, a group composed of all-female singers, is led by music director Sareece Brown and their coach, JD Frizzell. The team always strives to perform at their best and represents their school with pride. The Off The Beat group, on the other hand, is a co-ed group that is known for their innovative arrangements and unique sound. They are led by Joe Trainor and their coach, Arielle Handler. Faux Paz is a group that focuses on issues of acceptance and diversity, and they are led by Jacklyn Riha and their coach, Monika Rostvold. Lastly, the Hullabahoos are a group of ten men who are known for their vocal percussion skills. They are led by Michael Colavito and their coach, Matt Goldstein.

Throughout the season, the teams participate in several competitions, including the International Championship of Collegiate A Cappella (ICCA) and the National Championship of Collegiate A Cappella (NCCAs). The episodes also feature a guest judge who provides feedback to the groups on their performances.

Each episode also highlights the personal journeys of some of the team members. For example, in one episode, viewers witness The AcaBelles member Riley McFarland's journey in coping with her mother's illness while also trying to focus on the group's rehearsals and performances. Another episode follows Faux Paz's member Jeff Gaines as he reflects on his decision to come out as gay and how it has impacted his life and role in the group.

The show also explores the unique musical arrangements and performances of each group. Viewers get an inside look at how each group creates their arrangement, and the rehearsals leading up to each performance. They also gain insight into the individual personalities of the team members, as well as their dynamic as a cohesive group.

Overall, Sing It On is an engaging and entertaining show for music lovers, a cappella enthusiasts, and anyone looking for a fun and uplifting television experience. It's a show that showcases the passion and talent of collegiate a cappella groups while providing a peek into their personal stories and journeys. It's a must-watch for anyone who appreciates the power and beauty of music, and the dedication and hard work it takes to become exceptional.
