King Ice Creates Hip Hop Commonwealth for Youth

Online bling jeweler utilizes social media to host a mix-tape rap contest.



    ROSEMEAD, CA, June 10, 2012 /24-7PressRelease/ -- King Ice, an online retailer of hip hop jewelry, often referred to as "bling," is hosting another rap contest. The contest will focus on producing the best rap track to fight to be the only one in the winner's circle. This is competitive where the winner takes all the spoils. The victor's song will be featured in the upcoming King Ice Mixtape Vol.1, be given a spot on Team King Ice, and receive $200 gift certificate to spend on KingIce.com.

This is the fifth rap contest held by King Ice. The company utilizes social media websites to promote this musical melee. Entries must mention King Ice by showcasing rap skills with the provided beat and upload on YouTube. King Ice will select tracks with the best sound quality and upload them onto the King Ice SoundCloud profile. Although the contest just started on June 1st, it will end on 15th , so there is not much time left. Currently, there are over 160 tracks uploaded and more are being added daily.

Like the previous rap contest[/url], competition will be fierce. Although there were 3 prized winners, Yung Lokee, Drama B and Young-N-Fabulous, it was difficult to choose the top winner. Not only did the winners get iced jewelry swag, they were accepted to Team KingIce and given an outlet to promote their music through rich social media connections. King Ice contests promote a positive environment for creative, young minds to step up their game.

Rob Sheffield, author of Love is a Mix Tape, kindly imparts his wisdom that "There are all kinds of mix tapes. There is always a reason to make one." The main philosophy behind producing a mix tape is to share personal stories with others in the most entertaining and stylistically original way. Rappers and hip hop artists love wearing glistening jewels because it's indicative of their success to overcome poverty and can live beyond modest means. By flossing their bling, they teach youth that anything is possible and you can literally go from rags to riches through music and creativity. King Ice accommodates millions of individuals with such lofty dreams of making it big by providing high quality hip hop jewelry at affordable prices.

KingIce.com periodically holds contests and giveaways. In addition to rap contests, King Ice is very active on their Facebook page and rewards loyal ice lovers with first dibs on news about discounts, new arrivals, contests, and giveaways. This is all done with the goal in mind of providing a way for youth to connect with the fame, style, and success that has been achieved by many hip hop artists of today.
