I woke up today and stumbled upon this.

Big Tune went down last night at the War Room, and Marcus D and KDCutz are going to Atlanta for the finals.

Check KD Cutz’ blog, where he’s already vlogged about being runner-up. I don’t know anything about him, but think he’s related to Kuddie Fresh, who I’m told won the first Big Tune back in the day. It’s a legacy.

Marcus D is 19, and the first beat he played last night was positively monstrous. Any great rapper would love to have rapped on it. Any mediocre rapper would have been dead scared. I could tell right away he would win.
