This one is probably more for the hip hop lovers. Think American Idol but for rappers. That’s a new show that T.I., Rick Ross, DJ Khaled, The Game and others will be joining as official judges.
Earlier this Fall rappe Crooked I announced on Sway In the Morning that he would be delivering an all-rap competition series for 2015. The show is called One Shot and Crooked I alongside flanked by Sway Calloway, King Tech, and SMH Records CEO Mike Smith will travel to 8 cities across the country on the hunt for talent. The winner will take home a grand prize of $100,000 and a record deal with SMH Records.
The stakes have gotten higher, as each week contestants will perform for celebrity judges to show them what they’ve got. The best of the best are on the roster. T.I., The Game, DJ Khaled, are among the most recently added to the One Shot celebrity judges pool. They will join the likes of RZA, Twista, Tech N9ne, Scarface, E-40, The Breakfast Club’s Charlamagne Tha God, Joell Ortiz of Slaughterhouse, DJ Drama and more to come of the star-studded roster of Hip-Hop heavyweights who will judge the performers from week to week.
The show is set to target Charlotte, Atlanta, New York, Chicago, Miami, San Francisco, Los Angeles, and Houston with at least one celebrity judge in each city. For more information visit http://www.myoneshot.tv. The Hip Hop Lover in me is totally here for this.
