KarriereKanonen is an online community and an annual competition for unsigned Danish singers and bands.

To enter the competition musicians have to upload music to dr.dk/karrierekanonen. From the pool of entered music, 12 acts are selected by a jury to play at music festival SPOT. Following eight bands are selected to continue in the process. All eight play at Smukfest, where three winners are announced. The winners get tailored coaching and training through Bandakademiet, a gig at Smukfest, and airplay on DR P3 and P6 BEAT when they're ready for it.

KarriereKanonen has resulted in a good number of successful acts through the years like The Minds of 99, Vild $mith, Magtens Korridorer, Tue West, and Rasmus Nøhr.
