UPDATE #3: Troy Ave. tops Asher Roth in last night's event that featured Lord Jamar, A.G., Tek from Smif-n-Wessun, Freeway, Ace Hood, Action Bronson, Maffew Ragazino, Sr., Double O and plenty more.
EA Sports' NFL flagship game Madden NFL 12 released this week. To commemorate the release, HipHopDX and three select sites within the Complex Media Network - each joined by a team of Hip Hop artists (revealed next week) will be going head-to-head in a Madden 12 tournament this month.
DX will be squaring off against Nahright.com, FreeOnSmash.com, and Complex.com on September 12 here at Complex's Midtown Manhattan headquarters.
DX's Editor-in-Chief Jake Paine will compete against the highly-respected founders and staff from other sites:
Complex: Justin Monroe
Nahright: eskay
FreeOnSmash: Hof
Our Twitter followers (@HipHopDX) can participate: using the hash-tag #MaddenBattle, readers can weigh in on the event and competition. Footage will be captured of the September 12 event.
The champion will take home a Gabe Urist designed "Superbowl"-esque ring and, of course, the priceless gamer bragging rights. Let's go!
(September 1)
UPDATE: The teams have been announced, including the likes of Asher Roth, Freeway and others. HipHopDX's own team includes veteran D.I.T.C./Showbiz & A.G. emcee A.G., Smif-n-Wessun/Boot Camp Clik's Tek and Brand Nubian's Lord Jamar.
