What Is SBR?

Sound Battle Royale is Canada‘s only live beat battle series. We’re looking for 32 of the dopest, most hungriest producers to battle it out in 4 shows for a chance to win over $2000 in cash and prizes. Last year’s judges included Tone Mason, Rich Kidd (Ridgeway Ent), Big Pops (Northern Profit) and Jake One (Rhymesayers Ent).

What do you mean a LIVE beat battle?

Exactly what we mean. You tell us what gear you need and we set up a studio on stage for you to battle it out with 31 other producers with your dopest shit. For more details about the beat challenges, check out www.soundbattleroyale.com/battle

When is the the first battle?

May 2011. Producers must sign up by May 6th.

The first episode of Mobb Deep‘s brand new web series. I don’t know about y’all, but Prodigy talking shit in visual form might be the best thing about this. In all seriousness, this is really well put together and P Double drops more than few jewels about his prison stint, Havoc, Nas, and even Waka Flocka. For even more jewels, peep his Complex interview.
