About BBB

Our participants have earned their spots by excelling in other prestigious DJ battles or by amassing large, dedicated fan bases. The object of the battle is to create a mix using acapellas and instrumentals in the most imaginative ways possible, showcasing unique talents and pushing the boundaries of what's possible with turntables.

Contestants will have the opportunity to utilize the latest in vocal and instrumental stem technologies as well as advanced DJ hardware and software (excluding the sync button).
Creative Performances
From TV themes to nursery rhymes, DJs will surprise and delight with their innovative mixes.
