UnHeard Radio was created by independent artists and is still run by independent artists. So they understand most Hip Hop Battles are a popularity contest- this one is not. That doesn't mean you don't have to pull a crowd to stand a chance. However, it does mean you do not have to pack the place out.

There will be a 3 judge panel which will pay attention to original sound, stage presence, and overal show. This will count for 60% of the voting process. The other 40% of the process will be based on crowd voting. There will be voting booths setup where each fan can vote for their favorite artist/group. There is a system to catch multiple voters, so do not encourage this dishonest act. So even if you do not have the biggest fan base in the place, you still have a chance at winning. Audio and video of the of battle will be streamed over the internet with online voting for artists that are not from the area.

The lineup depends on how many tickets the artist/group sells. The artist/group with the most ticket sales by 2:00 P.M. of the show date will be designated the headliner and go on last. The artist/group with the 2nd most ticket sales will be 2nd to last to play, and so on. Door sales do not count torwards lineup selection.

Participating artists will be provided with an online ticketing system where they can instruct their fans to purchase tickets. The company operating the ticket system is Ticketleap.com.
