Slaughterhouse is cooking up a battle rap competition in the form of a reality show, titled The Road To Total Slaughter. As revealed through MTV’s RapFix:
The Shady Records crew explained that the new show will pit eight battle rappers against one another, in a bracket style competition, with four rappers on each side. “The winner of each side will co-headline the main event, [with] two legends in the battle game,” Royce said. “It’s probably the biggest battle you can put on right now, on behalf of Shady Records, Shady TV and Slaughterhouse.”
To make it more captivating, viewers at home will get to know each contestant better throughout the show. “It’s a reality series as well, ‘The Road to Total Slaughter,'” Joe said. “We’re gonna put those eight guys in a house, they’re gonna live with each other for a week and you’re gonna be able to see them prepare for it as well.”
The eight rappers participating in the show will be Dizaster, Math Hoffa, Daylyt, Arsonal, Cortez, Marv Won, Big T and Aye Verb, artists that Slaughterhouse describe as “top tier battlers” and “assassins.”
“It’s giving these guys a platform that they didn’t have before,” Royce told Sway. “Everybody knows they’re great if you follow them, so the goal is to put not only them, but battle rap itself, on this platform.”
