I just want to formally thank everyone that was able to make it out to the Battle last night @ Club Orpheus. Thank you so much for your patience. The microphone set up was wack, but you all held it down like professionals.
Everyone involved felt that the night was a huge success. For the first night of taping we had 14 spitters to participate and it was perfect. I was originally hoping for more, but the number worked out great. Everyone was given the opportunity to thoroughly impress the judges as well a the crowd. AND YES, THIS IS NOT A GAME....WE DID GIVE THE WINNER $200.
In particular, I want to thank some of the surprise guests that came through and blessed the stage with their lyrical presence. Some of the best spitters in the area came down and did their their thing. Big Ups, Tyree Colion, Third Rail.... Thank you DC and PG county for showing B-More some Love.....All my peeps from Annapolis (Crooked Streets and Flawless Ent, Illah) came through toooo...thank you!!!! BIG UPS!! also goes out to the spectators. We had a really nice crowd (there was perfume in the air).....the energy felt so hip hop.
This lil dude from Crimzon Eyes Production, Doc Holiday, won the top prize. We need to watch out for him. I'd never heard of him before, but he definitly left me with an impresson. He was on fire that night. Told 4 MCs at one point, "Im gonna battle all yall"!!!....It was great
OMG!!!!
Proton...you is the MAN!!!! Yo, Pro really did his thing last night. Through all the white boy jokes........he held that ish down. He told some dude he was gonna make him his hype man after the battle or that's all dude was gonna be good enough to be after the battle...the sh*t was crazy. The crowd loved it. Although he did not win, he was one of the final four. He has definitly established himself as a real contender. Watchout NOW!!!!!
Thank you Ogun and Tha Plague for getting us hella pumped up before the battle and before the last round. I appreciate you all comimg out. Also, there was press in the building and I want you both to know that yall shined!!!!!
OK to the rest of you Johnny Come Latelys (lol....i lke that),
This was just the beginning. When you all see this show on you television screens at least 20 times a day, your gonna wish you had been there to participate. Its all good, ce la vie!!!
As I stated before, this show will be taped on a consistent basis and will spotlight some of the areas talent. Once we are up and running, I want to give different artists the opportunity to perform at every show. The camera men are legit. This was not your run of the mill equipment. I've seen some of Mr. Deloatch's work, you all are in for a pleasant surprise.
Holla at cha gurl!!!!!
