Starring Your Favorite Midwest Battle Rapper MidWest Miles 

We all know that behind screen names,mention names and pages on our favorite Social Networks that there lies what we at the Bodega like to call 'PC Goons' but are really just losers and haters with nothing better to do with their time but to hide behind a screen and chastise. In this short film the message clearly states that, ' You are held accountable for what you say and no matter how you think  it will not catch up to you IT WILL..and Very Soon'




Miles has Clearly been getting hated on via the Popular Social Site Twitter and it has finally gotten to a point where he can no longer handle the disrespect. Starface then tells Miles that there is a way to find Out where this 'PC Goon' is Located. With This Info Miles Makes His Way to Confront his Hater.

We at the Bodega just wanted to Show Love to Midwest Miles as well as Starface Television for Blessing Us with The Real Life Social Network...that Will get You Worked even if You are behind a Screen....Big Ups and We will keep You Updated with More Starface Productions as well as Keep You Tuned for the Drop of Miles Mixtape 'Hennessy and Ice'.

Queens of the Throne:: Presents Queen of the Ring!



  The Venue is packed and two of the Most Popular Emcees are facing each other with Mics in Palm. The Dopest Punchlines and the Illest Word-Play are being put on display as 'Ouhhs and Ahhs' feel the air with every metaphor. See Battle Rap has always been apart of Hip Hop from the being, you could catch a group of 'guys' in any state,city or town battling each other to gain 'Street Fame' and as this movement begins to grow as in Hip Hop in general the ladies have shown the world that anything Men can Do! They can Do As Well. Within this Packed Venue with the most Popular Emcees swinging the hardest Punchlines and have the crowds undivided attention. The Ladies of Queen of the Ring are giving the male battlers in Other Male dominated Leagues a Run for their Money.

    If Your a New Comer to The Queen of the Ring, then you have a lot of catching up to do. Approaching The One year Anniversary on this Phenomenal Movement QOTR has put many female Emcees in the spotlight. Founded by 'The Big Homie' Debo or as we Fans of the QOTR call him Respectively 'Mr. Shut the Fuck Up' and Partnered with Bad Boys 'Making the Band' Brooklyn Babs and King Of the Rings very own Mr. Grindseason Vague they have given many ladies the chance to express themselves on the same platform as their male counterparts. The Home Base of QOTR is the Bronx New York and we Wouldn't expect anything less coming from the Birthplace of Hip Hop. The Bronx is the Home of Queen of the Ring but the Femcees represent many different boroughs as well as different states and they come to put on for their City! A lot of these ladies didn't initially step into the world of Hip Hop as Battlers but as Rappers with mixtapes and videos,but along the way decided to step in the Ring. QOTR is the first league dedicated strictly for the ladies but dont let that fool you when these ladies put on a show the crowd is mixed with females who are proud of this league, because they get the  chance to shine and with males from near and far who come to show their RESPECT to the ladies who have skills that could outshine many male competitors.
       We at the Hip Hop Bodega acknowledge that QOTR is on the raise and have gained popularity through networking on social sites such as Youtube,Facebook, Twitter and the newly launched Queen of the Ring Site...(Click to CheckOut and SignUp) this movement is reaching places that leagues which have been out for years have yet to reach strictly because the FANS fuck with this movement. And You have to give RESPECT when RESPECT is Due...
QOTR started off in US Fitted Store and with the Grind that it takes anyone to reach the Top they have packed events now at where else but 'THE RING' on Commerce Avenue in the Bronx. QOTR events are sold out packed venues with attendance of some of the HOTTEST Male Battlers that rep Leagues like the URL, Grindtime, and BlockCity who all support and show love.

The Upcoming Event: The First 48 Battle Card reads the who's who of Femcee Battle Rap. This Event Marks the Return of The Female Vet E-Hart who is reppin the Bronx versus Brooklyn's Hard-Hitter Ms.Fit this battle alone shall bring viewers from near and far. The Lineup also features the Highly Anticipated Battle Between Brooklyn's Queen of Word-Play Jaz the Rapper 1z against the Punchline BronxBomber Chayna Ashley. The First 48 is October 15, and with Battles such Kay Prophet against Phara Funeral ... The Vet and QOTR Unique Spitter Norma Bayts verses Newly Crowned Queen The Finisher!! Matrimony ..

                           X-Factor - versus - D.N.A
                           This is My Summer Madness Recap in Word...Not Video

When we think of Two Heavy Weights Stepping into the Ring and giving the audience a Show worth Waiting for Detroit's X- Factor and New York's DNA should come to mind when dealing in the Battle Rap World. After Hours of Waiting in Line the Anxious Crowds of Battle Rap Fanatics were Blessed with what could easily be considered the Best Battle of the Night. From a Fans point of View..The Excitement of watching these two facing each other was the Perfect Kick-Off to Summer Madness. A Night Filled with Punchlines, Metaphors and lets not forget the Card Girls was on its way with one Coin Flip and a Famous Slogan 'Your Swags Off Fag Sauce'



Round 1:
     Round 1 could be thought of The Most Evenly Matched Round of the Three to Many Viewers.For the Simple fact that Both Battlers came prepared to earn 'Body Bags'.  X came out with Impressive Punchlines against the Younger DNA, which was evident with the line 'Finally Danielson is in the Ring with Mr. Miyagi' that line alone let us know that X was secure in his position of the Older Vet ready to School his Pupil turned Competitor. X then went in to explain how DNA was his Clone and somewhat Predictable with his Bars handing Pre-Rebuttals to everything DNA could possibly say..The Highlight of this Verse by X was the Flipping of Crowd Participation that DNA did in a Previous Battle against @YungIll314 which done by DNA didnt win the crowd Over but was the perfect way for X to win this Round. 
        DNA's first Round was full of Punchlines and wordplay in which the Crowd enjoyed very Much, but with the Pre-Rebutalls that X handed him left his Round pretty much read before we got a chance to open his Battle Book. Nonetheless DNA had the Crowd when he Pointed Out that X-Factor was so Old that 'He Knew Smack when He was Slap'. With Many Good Moments in his Round1 DNA still was Outshined by the one and Only X-Factor which is the Reason I gave this Round to The Vet.

Round 2:
      I Have Heard from many people with different views that said that Round Two was kind of Boring, but I Beg to Differ on the behalf of X-Factor. Factor was more entertaining than the younger DNA in this Round, the Round gave more Cheers to The Vet with lines such as 'You Think they LIONS, they Cow-wards so my Tin Man come with Ten Cans to shoot the Brains out You Scarecrows' this Wizard of Oz reference was one of My Favorite Highlights of this Round.  DNA continuing the wordplay and punchlines like in the first round but not being able to land them with the crowd and again X-Factor Forshadowed DNAz Rhymes therefore making them a bit Corny. Being More Entertaining once Again I gave the Second Round to The Vet.

Round 3:
    All I have to say on this Third Round is 'its Priorities Nigga' Even though we have seen countless of Tooth Jokes aimed at DNA the 'its Priorities Nigga' segment has to be the most entertaining and clever way of pointing out the missing part of DNA (lol) 'I dont want to see you in a Polo Shirt or Shit if that Hole in Your Mouth still Exist..its Priorities Nigga' was Hands Down the Highlight of this WHOLE BATTLE..DNA round again was mostly on wordplay-punchlines and at this point they were  not hitting as hard as they did in the first round. But X-Factor zipped that Body Bag with lines like 'You could be in a Helicoptor with a Chopper and You still couldnt Land on X' as well as 'I Blew a Hun Your Chewing Gum..Only in the Winter-Fresh' sheeeshh!!

Both Of these Battlers came out to Catch a Body but My Verdict is X-Factor 3-0, First Round could have went to DNA but with the Pre-Rebuttals done by Factor it is Clear we will see him On the Next  Episode of the First 48...
