The Golden Mic Challenge

What is the Golden Mic Challenge?

We have been promoting events in and around Leeds for a while now and we know that there is a multitude of talent in and around this great city. We wanted to do something that would make us stand out from everyone else, be a part of something new and exciting. There are dozens of open mic sessions all over the UK every week and we wanted to do something that put a new spin on it. We decided to name the event after the prize on offer, a gold plated Shure SM58!

We wanted to do something that would test even the most prolific emcee, so we decided to have an artist compete in varying disciplines including - Freestyle, Pre-written, Battle and Cypher, with points awarded by the panel of judges and crowd.

There are 3 heats with each heat winner going through to the final and the best scoring runner up over all the heats. The final will be judged by some of the finest UK hip hop legends.

So What can I Win?
