Remy Ma has announced the first ever all-female battle rap tournament.
Set to take place in New York City on October 30, The Tournament will be streamed on her Chrome 23 platform and feature a total of 16 rappers with a grand prize of $25,000 USD. She revealed in the promotional video that there will be three rounds, each one clocking in at 90 seconds for a total of one minute and a half or a maximum of two minutes. “All bitches can rap,” Ma said.
Earlier this year, Ma launched Chrome 23’s first rap battle Queens Get the Money which saw the likes of Fabulous, Fat Joe, Joe Budden, Lil Kim, Jadakiss and more in attendance. “I see a lot of the girls out there doing their thing, spitting about their real experiences. I’m a big fan of that and supporting other women in this industry,” she shared. “Being a female rapper in this industry is tough, but we have made lots of effort to level the playing field.”
Elsewhere in music, Kendrick Lamar once considered not dropping Mr. Morale & the Big Steppers.
