AND THE WINNER IS......................

Ms. Dee-lite, of the dynamic husband and wife duo – INNER CITY SOUTH! She took home the $100 cash prize, trophy, and BRAGGING RIGHTS!

This month’s slam featured fierce competition from: AZ Truly, Seven, T-Remedi, Mister, Poetic Prince, and of course, Hardface. Ms. Dee-lite, along with Mister, Hardface and T-Remedi scored perfect 10's from all 5 judges, but in the end it was only Ms. Dee-lite and Hardface in a lyrical battle for the title!

Opening up our slam and bringing energy to the crowd was 18 year old rapper Tim, aka ROYAL‘T performing “Good Timez”.
