About Ultimate Rap League
The league first emerged from the popular street DVD series that was referred to as S.M.A.C.K. DVD (an acronym that stands for Street Music, Arts, Culture & Knowledge) ran from 2002 to the year 2008. The rap DVDs typically include detailed interviews and information about the lives of rappers who are emerging. Most DVDs include the rap battle, which was usually filmed on the street, in a singing competition, without judges. The battles had a huge impact on future competitions and rap battles like MTV’s Monday Night Fight Klub, GrindTimeNow.net Sho-time Battle Rap League, and King of the Dot, setting the bar for modern-day battle rap.
