MTBD X – The Final Chapter

10 years ago I created this event to bridge the hyper-segregated Milwaukee music community.  With the current landscape we find ourselves in Milwaukee, I feel the mission has been accomplished.  Granted we have a long way to go, but artist like Mike Regal, Klassik, and Webster X ( to name only a few of the many great acts in our city ) are releasing music in a collaborative and encouraging environment.  The concepts of east-side or north-side Hip Hop are, in essence, gone.  The line between electronic and rap music have blurred so much, no one even care how you label a “genre” of music in this day and age.

So with that, I am announcing the END of the MILTOWN BEAT DOWN.

To celebrate the amazing artists who have participated in this event, we are hosting a final Battle Royale, featuring all past champions of the event.  We’ve lined up Mike Regal, Reason, Bubba, CameOne, Da Ricanstrukta, Jihad Baracus, J Todd, Lex Luther, Magic Fingaz, Major On Da Beatz Ad Lib, and the people’s champion 40 Mil.

WOW!
What a great year of battles. Without a doubt this was one of our best year’s of competition.  Our top 8 were some of the strongest producers we’ve seen at the finals over the past several years.  Any of these producers could’ve won this competition, but the honor of 2014 champion goes to Mike Regal.

Battle Recap: October 23 2014

In our last night of the 2014 Miltown Beat Down Preliminary Rounds, we reached our closest score of the entire competition.

Here’s how the points added up…

Battle One : Sumthin Gunny [326]  VS Lex Luther [383]

10520577_10152844915471913_1095910473401063091_n

New comer Sumthin Gunny stepped to the stage with some freshman jitters, but still wowed the judges with his slumpy and gritty sounds.  Former MTBD champions and seasoned battle veteran Lex Luther was ready to show the audience some his his new styles.  With a close battle of 326 to 383, Lex Luther won the first round.

Battle Two : Fooki [401]  VS Martie McFly [299]

1380497_10152844919881913_584812123109937235_n

Rookies Fooki and Martie McFly each took a very different approach to the battle format.  Martie was confident and braggadocious, while Fooki was clam, cool and collected.    These two had very differnt styles, which made for a very fun battle.  While Martie brought a lot of energy and huge sounds, Fooki’s “Speak Softly and Carry a Big Beat” mentality won over the crowd and the judges in this round.

Battle Three:  Sumthin Gunny [404]  VS Fooki [398]

10155146_10152844923686913_5745000531177064599_n

After a few trip ups in his first round, Sumthin Gunny came back to the stage with guns blazing.  His #bizzonface inducing, stanky funk was tough even for Fooki.  This battle was like Jupiter vs. Mars.  While Fooki’s spcey trap-inspired sounds were out there, Gunny was light years away with his future funk.  Gunny won this battle with a score of 404, while using his SP404.  HA!

Battle Four:  Lex Luther [412] VS Martie McFly [390]

10350506_10152844926436913_8518339427178564148_n

Battle vet Lex, wasn’t afraid to try some new approaches to his battle technique in this round.  Martie was on point with great samples, and HUGE drums.  Lex decided to flip his usual boom-bap style, and surprised everyone with some slow tempo bangers.  A close battle but Lex pulled out another win with a score of 412.

Battle Five:  Sumthin Gunny [416]  VS Martie McFly [426]

10439007_10152844933006913_3450786180650914808_n

Martie McFly stepped it up in his last round on stage, and racked the highest single round score of the night in this battle.  Gunny seemed a little out if it in his last appearance of the night, and his space daze worked against him.  Martie however was floating like a butterfly and stinging like a bee.  With only a ten point differential, Martie McFly won with a high score of 426!

Battle Six:  Lex Luther [425] VS Fooki [417]

In the last battle of the 2014 prelims, front runners Fooki and Lex Luther brought the heat!  Lex proved his mastery of the MPC, and knocked the speakers to the max, while Fooki surprised the crowd with big electronic sounds from the future.  This battle was WAY to close to call, and we went to a tie breaker #beatoff.  After 8 beats, Lex only won this battle by 8 points!

Lex Luther gets another shot at the crown, but only by a margin of 4 points.  Honorable mention goes to Fooki, who would’ve won the whole thing if he’s scored a mere 1.5 more points per round.  That’s a close one y’all.  Lex Luther tries to win another Miltown Beat Down championship on November 8th at the Miramar Theater.
