Rhyme Calesthenics 6 – The Wheel of Hip Hop

May 7, 2009 · by Lindsay · in Music

UPDATE – This event is May 15 – NOT May 8 – my error – I was so excited for Rhyme Cal – I didn’t want to wait a week.

This event comes highly reccomended to me by a number of IheartPGH readers.

Rhyme Calisthenics is an MC competition that combines the intensity of a rap battle with the excitement and unpredictability of a game show. While rap battles only require one skill – the ability to diss one’s opponent – Rhyme Calisthenics is the true test of an MC’s versatility, creativity and swagger.

Friday, ~~May 8~~ May 15, 2009 – 9pm @ The Shadow Lounge

Here are some clips from Rhyme Cal 4

They even have a fan who drove in from Ohio to check out Rhyme Cal last fall.

OMG, I was there last night, and it was off the CHAIN, game was so tight! If you weren't there, you're a square! It was standing room only, no room for a chair! Bodies laid out, horror like that witch project called Blair! Poets spitting mad lyrics, with or without hair! I swear, I don't care, if you weren't there, you're a SQUARE!
