XPO's Epsilon Chapter hosted its first annual Battle Against Cancer event last week. It was a freestyle battle among local emcees to raise money for Relay For Life. Dom and I drove up for the event and it was awesome to see such a great turnout, both with audience members and brothers.

There were 8 rounds where emcees battled to move on. The guys were far from Eminem in 8 Mile but there were a few good laughs. I remember some line about never winning a ring like Karl Malone that I found pretty funny. What I thought was crazy though was that one of the competitors, named Satellite, looked very similar to my favorite rapper, Kid Cudi.
Satellite? Or Kid Cudi?
Halftime Performers:
The final battle went to an overtime with J Slick being the winner. It was close but the judges had the final decision. Overall the entire event went really well and I think everyone had a great time. Most importantly they were able to raise money for a very good cause. I know it will be even better next year and I'm definitely looking forward to it.

***On a side not, I'm not going to say who but there was a particular contestant that totally ripped material off these two real freestylers. Check out the clip for some good laughs. Enjoy!
