We’re back at it with another Youtube rap contest, this time we linked up with Vudu Kat. We caught wind of him when he entered one of our other contests, and noticed he had been hosting some successful contests of his own, so it was only right we did one together! This contest is different from our others, because you have 3 beats to choose from, each from a different era of hip hop. The contest ends Feb. 23rd, and the first place winner will get a $100 Karmaloop Gift Certificate, and a collab with Vudu Kat!

BOLA 4 Quick Re-Cap: The event was great, another successful Grind Time West Coast event.

Can’t wait till the next one!
