The Rap Battle is a revolutionary concept born at the foundation of Hip Hop culture as a way to settle disputes through healthy competition, not violence. Over decades of development, battling has become both an incredible skill and a platform that requires you to rip down your opponent with insults to win. In the MC Challenge, EODub's founders have created an alternative to battling founded on empowering community, pushing each challenger to advance their skills while building up everyone involved, all while maintaining the competitive edge.
Over 20 years, EODub has become a destination and a rite of passage to anyone who wants to be considered a true emcee. Some of the world's most incredible lyricists have entered and become part of a truly global Hip Hop family. Each active chapter holds a national MC Challenge annually, with the national champions entering the EOW World Final, held in a different country each year and crown an EOW World Champion.
In 2021, Lupe Fiasco co-signed the movement, stating that whoever wins the EOW World Championship is objectively the best Rapper in the world, due to the EODub's accurate criteria and thorough process. In Lupe's words, "If you want to be the best, you can go to EODub...To say 'I'm better than the best of the best', it's EODub".
