Debonair
I was already done with this review when I saw he was now in it. He's got talent, but there are guys with over 200 votes already. Can he catch up 1 week late?
http://mycolumbuspower.upickem.net/engine/Details.aspx?p=V&c=25762&s=7229306&i=1#SD

Wallabe
Another late entry. The hardest working rapper in Columbus is going to have to work really hard to catch up.
http://mycolumbuspower.upickem.net/engine/Details.aspx?p=V&c=25762&s=7226017&i=1&m=X#SD

D-Rob
Waiting for his real video. I've seen it, and heard people talking about it.
http://mycolumbuspower.upickem.net/engine/Details.aspx?p=V&c=25762&s=7182384&i=1#SD

Blank & Age
Possibly my favorite song in the competition. If this entire song, including the jazz beat were performed live, you would make real fan out of me.
http://mycolumbuspower.upickem.net/engine/Details.aspx?p=V&c=25762&s=7182372&i=1#SD

J Osceola
J shows his diversity with an actual real video featuring a slow song.
http://mycolumbuspower.upickem.net/engine/Details.aspx?p=V&c=25762&s=7180634&i=1#SD

SauTa
Is it going to be SauTa rolling solo, or RNS Ent in the competition? Either way I think he should upload the track Daz and Kurupt gave big props on.
http://mycolumbuspower.upickem.net/engine/Details.aspx?p=V&c=25762&s=7179596&i=1#SD

Flam Feeva
We've been hearing a lot about this guy. Now we'll see if this guy can make waves in this competition and earn him enough votes to make it to the next round.
http://mycolumbuspower.upickem.net/engine/Details.aspx?p=V&c=25762&s=7176851&i=1#SD

99 Problems
Ok I'm intrigued. They say they will upload a real video here soon. Definitely looking forward to that.
http://mycolumbuspower.upickem.net/engine/Details.aspx?p=V&c=25762&s=7176245&i=1#SD

Harlem
I see an old friend Ray Deuce is on the track with him. Harlem seems to be getting plenty of votes and comments. He's looking like an easy top 16 lock so far.
http://mycolumbuspower.upickem.net/engine/Details.aspx?p=V&c=25762&s=7175487&i=1#SD

Nstynx and Poitier Pockets
A long time Royal Columbus favorite, really like the uploaded track. The video is worth a watch as well.
http://mycolumbuspower.upickem.net/engine/Details.aspx?p=V&c=25762&s=7174012&i=1&m=X#SD

Searius Add
Searius delivers another sultry track to the competition. Will his spoken word fans show up to vote? If so he is an easy top 16.
http://mycolumbuspower.upickem.net/engine/Details.aspx?p=V&c=25762&s=7173921&i=1#SD

Yaves
You might recognize him as the voice from the original Radio Ready commercial. This guy has some serious talent and great production behind him. Not to mention a real video.
http://mycolumbuspower.upickem.net/engine/Details.aspx?p=V&c=25762&s=7173686&i=1&m=X#SD

LMNTL Camp
Cleveland already has radio respect, so it will be hard for them to generate votes here. However this group may be able to pull that off.
http://mycolumbuspower.upickem.net/engine/Details.aspx?p=V&c=25762&s=7164317&i=1#SD

ReneeDion
Another artist with a real video. We've seen her sing live too, and she is the real deal. Really hope to see her make the top 16.
http://mycolumbuspower.upickem.net/engine/Details.aspx?p=V&c=25762&s=7164306&i=1&m=X#SD

Sharif Hakim
This was the first track that made me realize I needed to hear these songs on bigger speakers than my laptop. That being said, this track seems to be missing something in the bass department to be a true club track.
http://mycolumbuspower.upickem.net/engine/Details.aspx?p=V&c=25762&s=7164155&i=1#SD

KamBINO
If I haven't seen you live yet at Scarlet and Grey, that's my fault. If you haven't been there yet, that's on you.
http://mycolumbuspower.upickem.net/engine/Details.aspx?p=V&c=25762&s=7164018&i=1&m=X#SD

Distinguished Gentlemen
The first time I saw these guys was on the Promowest stage. Where is the footage of that? That would make a great video.
http://mycolumbuspower.upickem.net/engine/Details.aspx?p=V&c=25762&s=7163884&i=1&m=X#SD

NiQ
Rocker was my favorite track from 2010 in Columbus. He's getting votes but needs more to make it.
http://mycolumbuspower.upickem.net/engine/Details.aspx?p=V&c=25762&s=7158455&i=1&m=X#SD

T. Mattox
I'm not much into R&B but I could see this has some serious potential. Take notes, he's utilizing this competition to the fullest. Even ways for promoters and club owners like myself to get in contact with him by supplying his email on his profile page.
http://mycolumbuspower.upickem.net/engine/Details.aspx?p=V&c=25762&s=7147930&i=1#SD

52 Keyz
They make the list more to show that you can make a cheap clever video easily with a little thought and creativity.
http://mycolumbuspower.upickem.net/engine/Details.aspx?p=V&c=25762&s=7147926&i=1#SD

Mars
Love the hook. It's already stuck in my head.
http://mycolumbuspower.upickem.net/engine/Details.aspx?p=V&c=25762&s=7147142&i=1&m=X#SD

Lil Roc
Old friend, glad to see he's in the competition.
http://mycolumbuspower.upickem.net/engine/Details.aspx?p=V&c=25762&s=7144440&i=1#SD

Cali Kid Dubz
Sounds very current. Radio style track. It even has some autotune.
http://mycolumbuspower.upickem.net/engine/Details.aspx?p=V&c=25762&s=7143240&i=1#SD

TrekManifest
Need to hear some more tracks from him. I know he has a lot of talent, and I wasn't really feeling this one.
http://mycolumbuspower.upickem.net/engine/Details.aspx?p=V&c=25762&s=7142973&i=1&m=X#SD

P. Blakk
Very happy to see that he entered the competition. This 18 yr old is on everyone's radar and deservingly so.
http://mycolumbuspower.upickem.net/engine/Details.aspx?p=V&c=25762&s=7138870&i=1#SD

Merwan?
Would really like to hear this guy get in a studio and record some of his tracks.
http://mycolumbuspower.upickem.net/engine/Details.aspx?p=V&c=25762&s=7131660&i=1&m=X#SD

Kampain
This is guy definitely has the most interesting video.
http://mycolumbuspower.upickem.net/engine/Details.aspx?p=V&c=25762&s=7127679&i=1&m=X#SD

Unruly Recs.
You can't fully appreciate these guys without seeing them live. Unruly has been carrying the torch for local hip hop so show them some respect in the form of votes.
http://mycolumbuspower.upickem.net/engine/Details.aspx?p=V&c=25762&s=7125881&i=1&m=X#SD

Empireal
We go back, and he brings a crowd. Also +1 for having a real video.
http://mycolumbuspower.upickem.net/engine/Details.aspx?p=V&c=25762&s=7108619&i=1&m=X#SD

Ella
This isn't just a hip hop competition anymore after seeing Ella on the piano in her video.
http://mycolumbuspower.upickem.net/engine/Details.aspx?p=V&c=25762&s=7105216&i=1&m=X#SD

TGP
Their main vocalist has a real set of pipes. Saw some clips from last time Talib Kweli was here in their video.
http://mycolumbuspower.upickem.net/engine/Details.aspx?p=V&c=25762&s=7099332&i=1&m=X#SD

Jean P
Jean P is worthy of a listen for those that appreciate R&B.
http://mycolumbuspower.upickem.net/engine/Details.aspx?p=V&c=25762&s=7087584&i=1&m=X#SD

Kim Joyce
This isn't my favorite Joyce track, but I still like it. She has a ton of material she'll be uploading in the month to come.
http://mycolumbuspower.upickem.net/engine/Details.aspx?p=V&c=25762&s=7079094&i=1&m=X#SD

JL
JL is going to get my vote for the best size10 artist.
http://mycolumbuspower.upickem.net/engine/Details.aspx?p=V&c=25762&s=7077453&i=1&m=X#SD

Yizzo
He sounds too much like Drake for me, so waiting for another track or two for him to upload and show a little diversity. Seems like he's doing very well with votes so far, and deservingly so.
http://mycolumbuspower.upickem.net/engine/Details.aspx?p=V&c=25762&s=7064591&i=1&m=X#SD

Legendary
This track was probably the most surprising for me.
http://mycolumbuspower.upickem.net/engine/Details.aspx?p=V&c=25762&s=7064405&i=1&m=X#SD

Isis Yasmeen
Its definitely going to help that they have an actual video for her, and she seems to be the top vote getter for Size10.
http://mycolumbuspower.upickem.net/engine/Details.aspx?p=V&c=25762&s=7048125&i=1&m=X#SD

Mi$taRogers
I really like this track, and want to hear more from this guy. With or without the added star power.
http://mycolumbuspower.upickem.net/engine/Details.aspx?p=V&c=25762&s=7044934&i=1&m=X#SD

B-Con
B-Con is another artist I'm hoping to hear more from. His profile says it's just one of his new tracks, so he should have more to upload.
http://mycolumbuspower.upickem.net/engine/Details.aspx?p=V&c=25762&s=6993986&i=1&m=X#SD

JamieLee
He has arguably the best studio in Columbus at his disposal, so it's not surprising that he can put together a quality track.
http://mycolumbuspower.upickem.net/engine/Details.aspx?p=V&c=25762&s=6971426&i=1&m=X#SD

Joe Dawg Brother
He's a veteran in the city. One of the only guys I know that has worked with as many or more venues than myself.
http://mycolumbuspower.upickem.net/engine/Details.aspx?p=V&c=25762&s=6968644&i=1&m=X#SD

C10 of Omnibreed
C10 is getting the word out about the competition, and it's paying off. His fans are rewarding him with a strong vote count. You've got to watch his Dedicated video.
http://mycolumbuspower.upickem.net/engine/Details.aspx?p=V&c=25762&s=6935240&i=1&m=X#SD

D.O.B.
They have a lot of fans, and their latest album has features including Freeway, Project Pat, and M1 of Dead Prez.
http://mycolumbuspower.upickem.net/engine/Details.aspx?p=V&c=25762&s=6918579&i=1&m=X#SD

Adjust
He won the Royal Columbus - So You Think You Can Rap last year. This year he goes for a larger title in winning Royal Columbus - Are You Radio Ready.
http://mycolumbuspower.upickem.net/engine/Details.aspx?p=V&c=25762&s=6907774&i=1&m=X#SD

Speak Williams
I'm a sucker for jazz, so its no surprise that Speak's track has made my list.
http://mycolumbuspower.upickem.net/engine/Details.aspx?p=V&c=25762&s=6903647&i=1&m=X#SD

Submuloc
This guy is crushing the votes. He's not exactly my style, but he's locking himself into the top 16 already.
http://mycolumbuspower.upickem.net/engine/Details.aspx?p=V&c=25762&s=6892438&i=1&m=X#SD

Meechie Nelson
Definitely the best video song in this competition. Check it out for yourself.
http://mycolumbuspower.upickem.net/engine/Details.aspx?p=V&c=25762&s=6881501&i=1&m=X#SD

ItzBez
Normally I ignore most songs about being VIP or having swag, but I also really enjoy party tracks with guitar riffs.
http://mycolumbuspower.upickem.net/engine/Details.aspx?p=V&c=25762&s=6858814&i=1&m=X#SD

D1
Cool dude that brings a nice fun crowd every time he performs. This isn't really something I've heard from him before, but it's good for a slow song.
http://mycolumbuspower.upickem.net/engine/Details.aspx?p=V&c=25762&s=6831830&i=1&m=X#SD

Mojoflo
I didn't see them entering this competition, but for anyone who appreciates good music... you need to check them out live sometime.
http://mycolumbuspower.upickem.net/engine/Details.aspx?p=V&c=25762&s=6777810&i=1&m=X#SD

Kaeos
Call me old school, but when I think of paper planes, or anything about swagger I credit M.I.A. Not all of these fools have came after her stealing her punchlines, beats, and hooks. If this song is original, its definitely right up the radio's alley. If it isn't, redo it because it has potential.
