9. How are the episodes judged/rated

There are different criteria that we rate the performances to determine who the top emcees are.

Delivery: This criteria is based on an emcee’s ability to deliver their bars. We can hear what your spittin but can we feel it?
Content : This criteria is based on the content that the emcee is talking about. Is it deep? Is it imaginative? Is it conscious? Is it creative? All of those factors and more go into how we rate Content. If your not talking about much in your rhyme or your not creative with your content, you won’t be getting a high rating in this criteria.
Lyrical Skill : This criteria is based on how the emcee’s put their words together, their flow, the complexity of the flow,
Stamina: Based on the emcee’s ability to rock the whole beat. The beats are about 4mins so there’s plenty of time for emcee’s to spit as many bars as they want. But if you have to stop and think about what rhyme to say next or take too long to start your vers, you won’t be getting many Stamina points.
Freestyle : This criteria is based on an emcee’s freestyle. The length and quality of the freestyle are also factors to the rating. Remember all the other criteria’s apply to the freestyle so make sure you bring your best bars. Don’t try to be a hero and spit some garbage freestyle and think your gonna rank hi because you did a free, ALWAYS BRING YOUR A++ GAME!
What do we consider a “Freestyle”? A freestyle is not pre-written or memorized……it spontaneous, fresh bars off the top of your head.

10. Who rates the episodes?

The episodes get their official contest rating by the Spittin In Da Wip Judges. They follow the guidelines of the set criteria when they rate each episode

But viewers can also let their voices be heard via a comment section on each episode. They also can rate the emcee’s performance via the sliders in the comment box. Each V-visitor’s rating will have an impact on the emcee’s chart position on the “People’s Choice Chart”

11. Can I do a vers from a song I already did?

NO! We strongly recommend you come with new bars

12. Do I have to spit a freestyle?

NO. You don’t have to spit a freestyle, your allowed to spit a “Written”, “Freestyle” or a combo of the two(“Fritten”). Most importantly spit your best bars!

13. Can I bring my own beats?

Nope! You have to spit over a random beat created by Sugar Cayne

14. Do I get to hear the beat before I pick it?

Absolutely Not! You’ll be selecting a beat from a random list, all the beats have names, once you pick the beat name we’ll start the music and then you start spittin.

15.What If I don’t like the beat I picked?

After you pick a beat you have to spit to it no matter if you love it or hate it. FYI not every beat is going to be good, some are gonna be terrible, it’s part of the game.
