Empire Media Inc (EMI) has launched its 2019 edition of “Art of War” as the competing DJs exchange words, with each declaring that he will be the “Art of War” champion.
The organisers’ spokesperson Mikhail Dasilva stated, “EMI has reignited and rejuvenated what was a dormant and dying dancehall and sound clash industry in Guyana. This was possible with the successful hosting of 7 DJs clashes from 2016 to present.”
Dasilva further stated that Empire Media Inc was excited with the rejuvenation and new energy seen in the dancehall industry.
He noted that DJs and sound systems were getting the opportunity to showcase themselves to the world, and indicated that the winner of the Armageddon Clash 2018 (Notorious Sound) would represent Guyana at the Caribbean Kung Fu Sound Clash in St Kitts in August and the winner of Destination Badda Dan Guyana 2018 (Trinity Sound) would represent Guyana in Switzerland later this year.
On board with Empire Media Inc this year for “Art of War” is the Guyana Beverages Inc as the official energy drink sponsor. According to Brand Manager Raymond Govinda, “Guyana Beverages Inc recognises the importance of supporting cultural values within Guyana and providing a platform for local talents to grow and develop. “Art of War” provides the perfect platform for this to happen and to further the growth of our brand among this audience”.
Govinda added that the Guyana Beverages Inc was proud to partner with Empire Media Inc for “Art of War 2019” and Turbo Energy Drink would be the official energy drink of the contest. He noted that the “Art of War” soundclash offers good vibes, entertainment, and energy, which are what the Turbo brand seeks to offer to consumers.
