![VS Mini @ Riot Room [Recap]](http://demencha.com/wp-content/themes/widezine/thumb.php?src=http://demencha.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/lou-rip-at-vs-1024x599.gif&w=200&h=200&zc=1&q=80&bid=1)
As usual, the VS battle on Saturday night prompted a lot of "ooohs" and "aaahs". DRplus2, Barbaric Merits, Info Gates and Ghost competed in a beat battle royal with Ghost playing drums over his own pre-recorded tracks. Barbaric Merits left with the prize, while former Demencha...
![VS Mini Battles @ Riot Room [01.28.12]](http://demencha.com/wp-content/themes/widezine/thumb.php?src=http://demencha.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Microphone.jpg&w=200&h=200&zc=1&q=80&bid=1)
Since the Pitch went ahead and dropped a previous VS battle line from Abnorm directed at Dutch Newman, I'll go ahead and drop my favorite battle line aimed at Dutchie. Though I can't remember if it was a VS or Sudden Death battle (it was the one at Czar Bar a year or two ago),...
Though I loved Drake's latest album, Take Care, I thought Drake's verse on Rozay's recent "Stay Schemin" went a little too hard. Common does his best to expose Drake in this latest diss track that just came out today. The heads know that Common's never been one to cower in...

[pictured: Young Fierce] I've bolded the two names on this list of about 20 local names, marked as the spoken word artists I'm most looking forward to seeing at this. Young Fierce is still making music, I've come to realize after linking up with him on facebook recently. I...
"This is from an open mic night at Club Mardi Gras, Kansas City, MO in January 2000. Grant Rice and Mac Lethal are there to battle each other on the mic. Tech blesses the crowd with a few bars of rawness at the end," reads the youtube description uploaded by scottykcmo. I...
After embarrassing a few MCs nearly twice his age at rap battles around the city over the years, the young KC-based Abnorm seems to be on a distinguished road. I can't help but shake the similarity between this new record from him (available at a Bandcamp link below) and...
I used to think that a cool idea for a contest would be something to the effect of "pop the cap off a lucky bottle of Sprite and win a trip to go record digging at ?uestlove's house." ?uestlove has a reported 40,000 records. I highly doubt that KC's own producer/rapper...
Local freestyle/battle rap czar (no pun intended), Toon, who is promoting this show pretty heavy, says that the MC battle portion of this event will not unfold how a traditional battle would. He says it will be a "Call Out" style battle, with no brackets. It will be "last...
