Vote for the Hip Hop Honors Score
In October, VH1 will air the Hip Hop Honors award show. Honorees include A Tribe Called Quest, Snoop Dogg, Whodini, and Missy Elliott. VH1 is currently running a contest for DJs to create the score for the Hip Hop Honors award show. Thousands of people have submitted their ideas and a panel of judges at VH1 has narrowed it down to the 3 finalists and the winner will get to work with ?estlove from The Roots to create the soundtrack for the show. Here is a little about the finalists:

“My name is Ryan Barouch and I’m a 24 year old hip hop producer from West Bloomfield, MI. I have been passionate about music my whole life. When I was 13, I taught myself to play guitar and have been playing almost everyday since then. I am also self-taught on the keyboard, drum machine and make all the beats myself with no samples or pre-made loops!!! Over the past 7 years, I’ve licensed beats to hundreds of rappers all over the world.”

“I co-founded the philly based c4 breakdance crew some of you may know. Anyway, I finally decided to get more serious with my music and purchased some serious gear. By now I was a professional DJ and holding it down at all the philly clubs Chrome, Cavanaugh’s River Deck (formally Bahama Bay where the DJ Kool song Clear my Throat was recorded), and other local spots.”
