Comcast and Vibe Magazine celebrate the World Famous Mic Club
Supernova Production entity Battery 5 pays homage to producer's beat battle showcase
Atlanta, GA - Apr 30, 2007 Comcast and Vibe Magazine will join The World Famous Mic Club to celebrate over 6 years of hip hop advocacy on Tuesday, May 1st at Apache Café located at in Atlanta, GA. The freestyle emcee and producer battle has been a consistent showcase for artistry driven artists and producers for nearly six years. Supernova production group Battery 5, are scheduled to compete in the celebratory event.
"The World Famous Mic Club is different from everything else an emcee or producer could experience here in Atlanta," says Andre aka DRES Da Beatnik, coordinator. "Through my travels I come across a wide variety of people that don't believe that there is real hip hop in Atlanta. I'm not talking about crunk or snap or R&B with a hip hop break beat, but real straight up, in your face rugged and raw hip hop. That's what we've been doing for the past almost six years.
Battery 5 is one of the biggest success stories stemming from the event which is housed in one of the oldest open mic venues in Atlanta , Apache Café. "Battery5 owes everything to the World Famous Mic Club," says Beatbroker/mgr Gregory "Bigg Tyme" Smith, "almost a year ago to the date, five producers came to the World Famous Mic Club to compete in the producer's battle. That night Battery 5 was born." Bigg Tyme, HeadRoc, Skape, Looke and Mello were each participating in the beat battle portion of the event. After that chance meeting the five agreed to combine their individual niche sounds to form the monster entity that is Battery5.
A year later and the group is one of the most sought after production entities in the business. With projects in the works with MTV, several independent films and a host of A-list talent placements, Battery 5 is well on their way to becoming the go to production team in Atlanta. ""This night is a celebration for us as well, as we celebrate ReddKlay/Columbia Records newest artist Yelawolf and our new single 'Kickin'," confirms Smith. "Having the opportunity to be a part of developing an new artists sound and identity is especially rewarding."
Aspiring emcees and producers are encouraged to come and showcase their artistry for an audience full of true hip hop conisseurs. "This event is one of those stops you make when paying dues," says Smith.
The World Famous Mic Club is Tuesday, May 1, 2007 at the Apache café l ocated at 64 3rd St. NW Atlanta, GA, 30308. Door open at 10 pm. For more information visit http://www.myspace.com/mic_club or http://www.myspace.com/themightymightybeatdown.
