We will be kicking off a new feature on Def Sounds to give aspiring rappers some shine, as we will showcase a new artist once or twice a week. The featured artist for every week will be a rapper that hasn’t previously seen any time on the site.
Each showcase post will have a poll where the Def Sounds members will able able to vote either “Play it” or “Skip it” to determine if you think the artist has was it takes to make it in the Rap game.
The final details haven’t been completely determined as of this time, but most likely after 16 artists get showcased, the 8 with the most “Play It” votes will go head to head with each other to win a week long feature on Def Sounds.
