The variation of the MC Challenge will have 5 contestants from each crew going against each other in the patented five rounds:
There are plenty of talent competitions, MC battles and other outlets for up-and-coming solo MCs, but no other event offers a chance for crews to compete together.
Sure the event is meant to encourage teamwork and all that good stuff, but don't get it twisted, the stakes are high. Past winners include T. Weaponz and Make A Move Records.
TEAM 1 - FYL
TEAM 2 - B.U.R.N. U
TEAM 3 - 5TH COLUMN
TEAM 4 - REBEL STARR
TEAM 5 - DREAM TEAM
The Team Challenge is scheduled for Sunday, April 5th 2009 at Pyramid Club, 101 Avenue A between E. 6th & E. 7thStreets.
So far we only have two songs from the crews: "The Downrock - 5th Column, featuring Hasan Salaam, Bad Sport, Rugged N Raw" and "Look What I Can Do - Rebel Starr"
The 9th season will begin two weeks later with the 41st MC Challenge. Registration is available online, just create a profile and add "MC Challenge Entrant" to your Bio area. Make sure to include a myspace link!
