ROSEMEAD, CA, July 11, 2013 /24-7PressRelease/ -- King Ice, an online hip hop jewelry retailer, is hosting their sixth rap contest. The contest runs from July 1 to July 31. The company will be giving away $2,000 in prizes to the top three rappers. Winners will also receive sponsorship from King Ice which includes merchandise, jewelry, music promotions, and much more.
King Ice held their first rap contest in 2011. Since then the company has developed the rap contest to include greater prizes and benefits for aspiring hip hop artists. For their sixth rap contest the first place winner will be awarded a custom-made pendant valued at $1,500. Second and third place winners will receive $400 and $100 gift cards, respectively. All three winners will also gain sponsorship from King Ice, an honor awarded to a select few.
Winners will be chosen by a panel of judges selected by King Ice. Entries will be evaluated by song lyrics, delivery, music production, and video production. Each category will be scored with a maximum of five for a total score out of twenty. The entry with the highest overall score will be crowned the winner. The winners will be announced through the King Ice Facebook page on August 31. For King Ice, choosing a winner will be difficult this time around.
"We received several outstanding entries in our last rap contest in 2012," said Tom Diep of King Ice. "We're expecting more quality entries for the sixth rap contest. Rappers need to be on point in all four judging categories for a chance to win. We're looking forward to see what they produce."
