Emcee Battles
The Essence of Rap started with THE BATTLE. Where 2 emcees went toe to toe to determine who had supremacy with the words. Who had the more clever bars. Who could outwit who. Who could turn the crowd on their side. At RVA Rap Elite and our partners Southpaw Battle Coalition. We aim to preserve that energy at all costs! Check out our battles below!
