2010 Red Bull Emsee Event (ATL) Footage

An article by Senor Kaos

I’ve been meaning to make this post for a min. I found some footage online from the 2010 Red Bull Emsee event that took place in Atlanta, around the end of August 2010.

As I walked in the venue, 4-Ize and Stahhr were matched up for round one. Before the emcees could start though, everyone in the venue (including the emcees) would get to see a large projection screen which consisted of images that the emcees had to incorporate into their verse. There were 5 images to mention within a minutes time. All emcees were judged on their flow, delivery, etc. DJ/Producer Don Cannon, Manchild (2009 Red Bull Emsee Champ), and Bun B served as the guest judges for the evening.

The homie 4-Ize was the first to rhyme and set the bar for the night. Check out his first round footage below… The crazy part is the judges said he lost, cause he failed to mention 2 additional images. Even if your weren’t in the building you can see from the footage he got busy.

Also in round 1 was Stahhr who got BUSY as well, and mentioned all the necessary images. “The inside is all pink” had the crowd going stoopid! HA.

In the end it was Stahhr who advanced to round 2. 4-Ize was very displeased stating he felt he has robbed by Bun B (Guest Judge) who had control over the deciding vote. As it turns out 4-Ize wasn’t the only one that felt he got robbed! The evenings judge Dres The Beatnik voices his personal opinion.

But moving on.. after the first round, things cooled down a taste. Carter Deems, DT, KP, and others came out and did their best, but it wasn’t good enough to make the cut. In the end it all came down to two emcees. Headkrack and Fat Boy who made his way thru rounds wearing no shirt and entertaining the crowd.

Here’s some footage from the round one of the finals. As you can see from the get go this battle belonged to Headkrack.
