The eighth installment of Lounge Battles. The largest annual hip-hop event in the South East. Nine 2on2 teams faced off to see who will battle the winner of the Grizzlemania 2on2 tournament. Winners will face each other for the Grind Time Now 2on2 Championship later this year. For the first time ever, the event also included the Emcee "Royal Rumble" battle, which pitted 32 emcees against eachother for the grand prize of earning a spot in the Grind Time Now championship match. The winner will go against the #1 contender, chosen by the GTN staff based on record and opponents.

First they fought for respect, now they fight to be champions.

Who will win?
