The Lyricist Lounge is a hip hop showcase of rappers, emcees, DJs, and Graffiti artists. Eyedea first stepped into the hip-hop scene battling against other emcees at notable freestyle competitions. The album has no guest emcees or producers except DJ K La Boss. But with emcees ranging from Jadakiss to B.o. In 2014, Eyedea ranked #2 on Abbey Magazine's Top 25 'greatest freestyle emcees of all-time'. Women such as emcees Missy Elliot and Queen Latifah continued this movement. The vocal delivery on the track resembles the flow of most emcees at the time. Christ regularly guest emcees the show, substituting for hostess Heklina. The emcees also began to make and produce their own music. When not acting, Michelle often emcees events in Las Vegas and Los Angeles. This coalition of emcees eventually became the fathers of the Screwed Up Click. The emcees for the segment are Mr. Fu and Shivaker. The emcees appearances on the matches depends on their availability. Some emcees from this league gained commercial success. Long Island emcees the Lab Ratz(Dave Z and Lantz).
