By now you should know that the official tournament field has been announced and the first round match-ups are set:

J Gunn vs. Young E

Ty Fly vs. Cueue Ayun

Jones Andrews vs. Donte Antonio

Self vs. Blak Godi

Sir Plus vs. Rock L Spivey

Jim D vs. Wilson Phisk

Chizzy Chaynes vs. Young Stacks

Los Vegas vs. Swayze Jones

Note: All emcees who previously submitted a video for the Sweet 16 contest but were not selected for this tournament will be considered alternates and may still have a chance to participate if one or more of the inital 16 contestants are unable to compete.

How The Tournament Will Work

Each selected emcee will now have until Monday, January 17 at 3 PM to submit their new16-bar video to ncsweet16s@gmail.com. If a video is not received by NCHipHopConnect.com before the deadline, that emcee will be disqualified and their opponent will automatically advance to the next round. All first round videos will be posted to the online gallery on 6 PM on January 17 for everyone to view. The first round winners will be announced on Friday, January 21.

Contestants will ultimately be competing against the person they are matched up against, so it is recommended that each emcee study their opponent’s preliminary videos and do whatever it takes to give yourself an advantage. Good natured jokes and trash talk is allowed. Your 16 bar video will be judged for lyrical content, flow, and overall creativity. May the best emcee win!

The Judging Process

NcHipHopConnect.com is committed to having a fair and unbiased tournament where the very best emcee emerges as the grand prize winner. Therefore, we have assembled a panel of (4) impartial judges to determine the winner of each matchup.

They are DJ Ike G Da, respected hip-hop artist Magnedo, renowned hip-hop journalist ShaLinda Jeanine and NCHipHopConnect.com writer god Meta.

In addition, the fans on this site will also have a chance to vote online for each match-up to help determine the winner. Whichever emcee earns the majority of votes from the panel of judges and fans will advance to the next round.

This competition sounds like its gonna be interesting

The folks in bold is who I got winning the first round, based on their previous videos:

J Gunn vs. Young E

Ty Fly vs. Cueue Ayun

Jones Andrews vs. Donte Antonio (toss up)

Self vs. Blak Godi

Sir Plus vs. Rock L Spivey

Jim D vs. Wilson Phisk

Chizzy Chaynes vs. Young Stacks

Los Vegas vs. Swayze Jones

I can't call the donte v. jones andrews battle right now because they both seem evenly matched. I need to think about that one some more.

They should have replace the girl rapper and that Cueuo Ayuy dude or whatever his name is.
