DESCRIPT

Freestyle. Improvisation. Unscripted. Unlimited. Whose Rhyme is it Anyway is all of the above. It’s what happens when a few top-flight rap artists have a little too much time on their hands and the desire to do something new. Joining forces to create Whose Rhyme is it Anyway are three highly respected voices in Hip-Hop: Playdough, Manchild and Heath McNease. Each of these artists is an expert freestyle rhyme technician, skilled entertainer, and has a real heart for people. From their shared expertise, the three wanted to create a new format to reach more people. Whose Rhyme is it Anyway does just that. Basing its format on the hit show, “Whose Line is it Anyway,” Whose Rhyme… is an evening of sketches, songs, comedy, and multi-level crowd interaction that a simple music concert could never achieve.

QUOTES

"Simply put, the 'Whose Rhyme is it Anyway?' guys were a blast to have on campus. Despite the fact that none of the artists had ever played NC State before - either solo or as a part of other groups/collaborations - the show generated huge buzz prior to trio's arrival, and Playdough, Manchild and Heath McNease definitely lived up to their reputation. For an hour and a half, the trio bounced back and forth between full-scale musical performance, skits, rap battles and a number opportunities to draw showgoers into the act in a loose, informal freestyle environment suitable for fans of all ages and musical genres. They're three of the most professional artists I've ever worked with, and we look forward to future shows in the spring and beyond."
