Let’s get ready to rumble. Eminem’s Shady Records in collaboration with hip hop site WatchLOUD will host the first “Total Slaughter” rap battle event in New York July 12.

“What we look at this opportunity as, is a way to do for battle rapping what UFC did for MMA,” Eminem’s manager, Paul Rosenberg, tells Rolling Stone.

Eminem adds, “I’m a passionate battle fan, so this is something I’ve always thought about doing.”

The inaugural show will feature an appearance of Joe Budden and other rap troupe favorites to grace the mic. Pre-sale tickets will be available May 2 and general tickets will be available May 16.
