Jaze Juce and Frankie Wapps freestyling on the underground railroad with jSmooth
In 2007 JAZE JUCE and FRANKIE WAPPS took on the underground hip-hop scene by storm when they pulled A SURPRISE UNDERDOG run towards the 2007 World Rap Championship rings making NY second place in THE WORLD!!!!
The World Rap Championships is a notorious global tag-team battle rap league that spans over 8 divisions and 4 countries (NY, LA, ATL, Toronto, Houston, Melbourne Australia, London, and Detroit) . This is the brainchild of jumpoff.tv a British based hip-hop online franchise. So you can only imagine how it was a long road for NY!
The journey started on JULY 21st 2007 in Washington Square Park NY in the 2007 WRC's NY division walk-on qualifiers. On this beautiful Summer day, Jaze Juce and Frankie Wapps introduced themselves to the jumpoff staff, MCs and fans when they competed in two intense battles in which they absolutely slaughtered their opponents. These two battles are available on this myspace page, youtube and jumpoff!! As you can see.. the reaction to Juce and Wapps verbal interplay was so insane that the jumpoff fans voted Juce and Wapps into the 2007 NY division, held on SEPTEMBER 3rd!!! Little did they know what they had done...
On Sept 3rd... 6 teams met in the South Bronx hailing from as far as Orlando and Los Angeles to compete in the WRC 2007 NY division. It is now known that NY was arguably the most competitive and entertaining division in the entire 2007 WRC's. jumpoff favorites and underground battle legends all met in this BX studio! Nobody ever imagined Juce and Wapps would advance! Miraculously, Juce and Wapps outclassed season battle rap veterins and obtained 7 wins, 3 ties and no losses... making them the undefeated winners of the 2007 WRC NY division!! The 5 illest battles Juce and Wapps had are on this myspace page, but you can catch all of the hysterical/historical footage on youtube and jumpoff! This win meant Juce and Wapps were bringing Yonkers and ALL OF NY TO THE WRC 2007 PLAYOFFS!!!!! You'd think people would know by now... but no sir!!
On SATURDAY DECEMBER 1ST.. Yonkers represented New York in the 2007 World Rap Championship Playoffs elimination style tournament. They faced the winners of the Melbourne division in the quarter finals as MAJOR underdogs. Polls on jumpoff.tv started by fans put Juce and Wapps as the definite losers in the battle... however after 3 heated battles.. NY advanced to the semis making them the major underdogs of the quarterfinals!
In the semis .. NY encountered the winners of the London division, and after 3 extremely intense battles, NY defeated London and continued to advance into the finals . However, controversy arose that lasted for over two hours draining the energy in the venue, and leaving NY and LA to square off in a very deflated finals. This final bout lasted three full battles, but ultimately the Italians did not bring the gold home to Yonkers. It's like.. NY didn't get the gold but we reminded the world that we're still a fuckin problem. Juce and Wapps are still a fuckin problem.
I've been a fan of rapping as long as I can remember.

One where he traveled to California to attack former Scribble Jam competitor Okwerdz and than another major tag team victory with Frankie Wapps against Dumbfounded and Sahtyre,
