The new series of The Rap Game UK will air on BBC Three and BBC iPlayer at 9pm on 11 August, hosted by Krept, Konan & DJ Target.
Meet the six unsigned UK rappers who travel to Manchester and get to compete in what’s been dubbed ‘the UK’s rap Olympics,’ performing, living together and competing to win a once-in-a-lifetime £20,000 cash prize and mentorship scheme to help the winning artist create, and launch, their own music after the contest ends.
Each week the artists are set two challenges in which they will be asked to step up and show that they have got the hardest bars, the song writing abilities, and the stage presence to cut it in the music industry, whilst trying to impress Krept, Konan & DJ Target, and each week’s guest mentors, too.
The Rap Game UK is a 6×60′ series made by Naked Television for BBC Three. It is commissioned by Fiona Campbell, Commissioning Director BBC Three; Patrick McMahon and Muslim Alim are the BBC Commissioning Editors. Steve Earley and Gregor Lauder are Executive Producers.
