MCs, sign up for Versus 4, KC’s annual hip-hop battle

Versus: A Hip-Hop Battle has its fourth incarnation at the RecordBar on January 22, where DJs and MCs face off against each other in a bloodthirsty battle of the beats. (Check out a slideshow from last year’s battle here. That’s Swayzorblades on the left — 2010’s victor of verse.) Insults ping like bullets around the RecordBar’s stage. Count on a rabid, vocal crowd, ooh-ing and aah-ing along with the ferocious lyrical showdown.
