Calling all aspiring rappers: Hennessy and The Star in Sydney have linked up to give you the chance to take centre stage in the industry with their Free Throw Rap Battle…
The Star’s Sports Bar will be transformed into a hip hop battleground from 10 pm every Saturday night from May 20th until June 10th. Alongside the up-and-comers, The Area Movement’s best performers, including Klasik, Talisha, and Shamaya, will be there to pump up the crowd with saucey sets.
The stakes are high, with the winner receiving a prize package worth over $2,000, including $1000 of studio time at Dream Factory Studio, limousine transfers to and from the studio session, a $1000 Star gift card, and a Hennessy prize pack. And that’s not all! The final round will feature headline performances from TikTok DJ sensation Mistah Cee and special guests, making it an explosive four weeks of entertainment.
Lionel Nogueiro, Label Manager at The Area Movement, said, “We’re thrilled to partner with Hennessy and The Star to provide a platform for amateur rappers to take the stage next to some of our favourite existing local acts. The vibes at Sports Bar on Saturday nights will be unmatched, so don’t miss out on the ultimate hip-hop experience!”
