*Final Judge TBA

Top 8 will be chosen for each of the 4 categories.

NOTE: All competitors will be gathered together and prepped with rules and regulations before battles start.

We will NOT be calling competitors out by name. You know that you signed up for the competition so competitors will be notified in advanced and must be READY on deck for battle to begin and when the “RED Light” turns on, the Battle officially starts.

Someone MUST SET IT OFF –So when the “light” goes on DO NOT HESITATE to hit the floor.

Someone MUST RESPOND –It’s up to YOU the competitor to decide whether you want to engage the person before you in battle.

If NO ONE RESPONDS within the first 10 SECONDS after a person “Sets it off”…the person who “Sets it” automatically advances to the next round.

YOU better “Straight Die 4’Dat Shyt!!!” -Because if you hesitate, you may not make it to the next round.

THE JUDGES WILL MAKE ALL CALLS IN REAL TIME.

This will continue until the Finals where we follow the “Braggin’ Rites” tradition of “Last Man Standing” where competitors must “Straight Die 4’Dat Shyt!” in a Skilled, Stamina & Strategy Battle.

*NOTE: Judges reserve the right to make you battle it out or they can “Cast you out”

–If a judge feels that you are “Getting Smoked” then they can cast their vote and step down from their duty.

If you get 2 judges’ flags, then YOU WIN! If the person that you are competing against gives up, then YOU WIN! Be a Winner…Please ”Straight Die 4’Dat Shyt!”

Rest In Peace MCA, Sleep Well.

"Perhaps we can go through Lessons..."

"Yo, mind arson, my squadren, surround the Sound-Garden
Guns for hire plus you under fire and a target
Sniper in the cypher, I, Pied Piper
Move the housing by the thousand, I watched out the Chrysler
Bombs strike ya like the mighty Thor, blast the door
Recite a page like a tidal wave, past the shore
Two pulls, I'm wild like mechanical bulls
Pack a full house, it's girls night out, pull a hairful
Heavenly laced, stimulation make you feel slow paced
I motivate and await my sober state."

Remembering Our Legends: Harold Hunter Day V

The Harold Hunter Foundation (HHF), in association with primary sponsors Zoo York, Vans, HBO andCamp Woodward, is proud to announce the 5th Annual Harold Hunter Day will take place Saturday,November 12, 2011, at the L.E.S. Skatepark in New York City.

Established in 2006 after Harold’s untimely passing, and managed by the non-profit Harold Hunter Foundation, Harold Hunter Day V will once again unite NYC’s tight-knit skate community for a positive day of skateboarding, camaraderie and remembrance.

Harold Hunter was a legendary New Yorker with a larger-than-life personality and altruistic nature that enabled him to touch the lives of countless people around the world. Each year HH Day commemorates a life well lived by celebrating the things Harold loved most – skateboarding, music, friends, family, and of course, New York City.

“I look forward to celebrating five years of remembering Harold’s life at this year’s HH Day,” says Steve Rodriguez, 5boro Skateboards Founder and Harold Hunter Foundation Board Member. “Ever since I participated in my first HHF project years ago, I knew it was an organization I wanted to continue working with.  The impact that the HHF has on the kids involved is simply too great to not be a part of it.”

On Saturday afternoon, November 12th, Harold Hunter Day V will kick off at the L.E.S Skatepark on the corner of Pike and Monroe Streets under the Manhattan Bridge in Chinatown. An all-ages skate jam will run from 1:00–5:00pm and feature product giveaways, appearances by pro skateboarders, live music from DJ Smoke L.E.S., and pop-up “Best Trick” contests with prizes including a one-year supply of *Zoo York apparel and other gear from event sponsors.

Immediately following the skate jam, an after-party will be held at Max Fish located at 178 Ludlow Street on Manhattan’s Lower East Side. The gathering will be open to the public (21+ only) with live beats provided by DJ Smoke L.E.S. and friends.

As a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, the Harold Hunter Foundation relies on support from the skate community and related affiliates to achieve its mission of using skateboarding as a vehicle to provide inner-city youth with valuable life experiences that nurture individual creativity, resourcefulness and the development of life skills.

With this principal goal in mind, a limited edition Harold Hunter Day V t-shirt designed by Mark Nardelli from 5boro, and a skateboard deck crafted by Sam Wilson from With A Mouse Design, will be sold at the event with proceeds benefiting the Harold Hunter Foundation. Both items will also be available post-event at select New York skateshops.

Harold Hunter Day V is made possible through generous support from event sponsors Zoo York, Vans,HBO, Camp Woodward, Supreme, Cottonmouth, ProSport Wellness, SHUT, Paradox, BONES Wheels,Bones Bearings, With A Mouse Design, Prographix, The Professionals: NYC Sound Company, and the collective New York City skateboard community.

Let us know if you plan to attend on Facebook.

*One-year supply of Zoo York apparel includes 20 t-shirts, 10 button downs, 5 hoodies, and assorted shorts & denim.

Playlist: WaAaK's fav. Underground MC's Sept.2011

I hear allot of excuses from people as to why they listen & support lame ass music these days. I've heard everything from "Nah, I only listen to the radio in the car.." or "I just like it for the beat." and of course "That's that shyt that's bump'n in the clubs right now yo!" STOP SUPPORTING WACK ASS SHYT!!! -Straight up...There's nothing Hip Hop about that.

Without further ado here's a play list -in no particular order, of some of my personal favorite Underground and/or up and coming, Un-signed and under rated MC's that I gladly support. -Enjoy....
