Join us on Friday, September 20th for the 4th Annual Hip-Hop Karaoke Competition Edition! This year we’re welcoming special guests BLACK MOON! Buckshot and Evil Dee will be in the building to help judge the lyrical fury on stage, as well as give a performance to close out the evening.

We’re running the competition the same way as in past years: doors and sign-up at 9:30pm. We have 20 spaces available, on a first-come, first-serve basis, so arriving early is obviously encouraged if you wish to compete — spots are going to go very fast! This is the only fair way we can think of running the performance process — the competition is open to everyone! Song selection is also first-come, first-serve, so prepare at least one back-up tune just in case! Songs performed MUST be on our existing song list, found on our website (http://hhktoronto.com/ ). We ask for no group/posse cuts (solo performances only) to keep things fair. Example: you can do “Scenario” by A Tribe Called Quest, but you have to perform it alone (no duo/group efforts).

Performances will be judged based on crowd reaction/participation, use of stage/animated performance, familiarity with material (i.e. memorization & delivery of lyrics), breath control, as well as bonus points for incorporation of creative dance moves. Lots of prizes to be won!
