Rawza vs Gen

Having already made waves across social media, this clash is set to be one of the most talked about from LOTM8.

Both Armz and Logan have projects dropping in 2019, but which one will be able to release theirs with a LOTM win under their belt?

T Roadz vs SBK

Both T Roadz and SBK are determined to leave Jammer's basement with an LOTM win by their name, but only one can take the crown home.

Yizzy vs MicOfCourse

Opening up about his clash, Lewisham MC Yizzy said, “It’s more than a clash - it's not just about what I say but also how I say it. When I diss the other guy I’m dissing him with lyrics, with body language, with everything I possibly can."

With American studio sessions in the bag already, as well as an upcoming Eskimo Dance appearance, MicOfCourse is an MC who's certainly making waves. Bringing an unfiltered approach to the clash, he's guaranteed to take this one all the way to the wire.
