$1 MILLION RAP BATTLE COMING THIS SUMMER: World Series of Hip Hop to be judged by pioneers of the movement.
*New York, NY - The World Series of Hip Hop has released some of the names of judges who will oversee the championship matches of this year's multi-million dollar tournament, scheduled for August 5-9, 2008 at the Georgia World Congress Center in Atlanta, GA.
Rappers and dancers from all corners of the world are expected to converge on Atlanta this summer for the opportunity to be judged by some of hip hop's pioneers.
The tournament's championship matches will be aired live on pay-per-view Saturday August 9, 2008 at 7 p.m. EDT and will be hosted by radio personality and legendary female rapper Monie Love, New York City DJ and MTV host Cipha Sounds and nationally syndicated radio talk show host Wendy Williams.
The judges who will decide who wins the Million Dollar Grand Prizes include: DMC of Run DMC, Rakim, Big Daddy Kane, Yo-Yo, Dougie Fresh, Roxanne Shante, Slick Rick and Keith Murry.
"We want to make sure the judges are so official, that their decision as to who is the better rapper is beyond reproach. And the list is still not done," said Furqaan Clover the events organizer.
A detailed list of celebrity judges and registration information can be found on the event's website: www.wsohh.com.
