WIN - a copy of Def Jam Rapstar and the entire back catalogue from Aussie hip-hop legends The Herd!

Competition from Sarge - Thursday, 01 September 2011 @ 12:25am

A few months back, I wrote a news piece about The Herd's latest video clip that was filmed entirely using hacked 360 Kinects - well now The Herd have a new album coming out soon, as well as a national tour that's currently underway. So to help celebrate, I have a copy of their entire back catalogue (plus a few promo copies of their new singles!) to give away. Then, once you're full of hip-hop inspiration, you can lay down some sweet raps with your own PS3 copy of Def Jam Rapstar!

So, that is:

- Def Jam Rapstar for the PS3
- "Elefant Traks Presents The Herd" album
- "An Elefant Never Forgets" album
- "The Sun Never Sets" album
- "Summerland" album
- "The Sum Of It All" advance promo single
- "Signs Of Life" advance promo single

However, to prove your worthiness of such a prize, I wanna see what rap skills you've got, because, you know, girls like guys who have skills.

If you're not already a member of the community, it's super easy to sign up to the Forums, then hit the link below and give me your best rap verse!

To help those who need a bit more time to craft their skills, I'll run the contest for a full 2 weeks, then I'll pick my favourite rap and you're a winner! You can just type out your best raps if you want - but if you want to record yourself throwing down raps, then that'll get you even more points too.

The only rule about your verses is that it must contain the following words:

That's it! You write as much or as little as you want! I'll give bonus points for creativity.

I might even enter too! After all, I like my rhymes like my Maccas - you know I gotta make it large,
But let's not to get too personal, so just refer to me as Sarge,
So let's hear what you've got to say, your efforts couldn't be much lamer,
I'll give you lots of free shit, well it's not mine personally, I get it through Australian Gamer
I've never been a good rapper, and I struggle to make words rhyme,
So to quickly wraps things up, so I'll just say you the word "Elephant".

Bloody hell, that was bad. Surely you can do better than that? If you know where to look, there's also a few videos I've uploaded on the Rapstar website too

If you can't wait for the comp to end, and want to get your Rapstar on early, Def Jam Rapstar is available now on PS3 and 360 at all good JB Hi-Fi and Game stores. You can also read my review here
