With Rounds 1 and 2 officially in the bag, our inaugural Hip-Hop March Madness tournament is down to 8 artists and let me just say this: the finale will be one to remember.

The biggest surprise in our tournament thus far is the underdog, 8 seed Rick Ross, strolling through the South. After upsetting the number 1 seed Lil Wayne in Round 1, the MMG general had an interesting match up against Rihanna in Round 2, which could’ve led to his defeat. But, with the help of the MMG cult, Rozay prevailed. With the rest of the number 1 seeds in tact, the remainder of the tournament ought to be interesting. Nothing like March Madness, right?

With that being said, we have officially finalized the match ups for the Elite 8 and have officially opened up the voting polls. Re-read the rules below and proceed to the following pages to place your votes. Who will move on to the Final 4? The answer is up to you!
