We have quite a few prestigious competitions, battles and tournaments worldwide for Hip Hop. For B-Boys we have the grandest tournament, Battle of the Year. For DJ turntablism there is the hard earned DMC World DJ Championships, and for MCs there were many that have come and gone like the historic New Music Seminar. It is great we have these international battling forums for B-Boys, DJs, and MCs, but how about the Graffiti Writers? Well guess what? There is one, and it has been rocking in Europe with great participation since 2003. Have you ever heard of Write4Gold?
