9 Acts 3 Genres #ONEMIC
Rep Dat presents a live competition that takes us into the world of undiscovered UK Urban talent. The competition will be filmed on the night and spread over a series of five shows for OH TV, Sky Channel 199.

One Mic differs from other competitions on television as it aims to boost the popularity and lyrical content of unknown artists who specialise in the following genres: Soul & RnB, Reggae, Hip Hop.
It is also being filmed exclusively for OH TV, Sky Channel 199 to be broadcast to an estimated audience of 25 million, on the 5thMarch 10pm and repeated Thursdays every week for 3 months.

The majority of talent shows use the same format making them predictable and lacking in entertainment. The UK urban scene is highly unrepresented and exposed despite there being a huge following by 14 – 27 years old.

Recent shows like the X-Factor chose the winners focus mainly on the pop scene an area that is fast becoming outdated and less fashionable with the youth of the UK. Although X-factor focuses on commercial music, the content is fast becoming out of touch with the desires and choice of young people.

One Mic aims to take a different approach by focusing on individuals and their musical ability from the urban underground. There is a huge market for urban music and this is slowly being recognised by the media. Through One Mic we believe that we will be an invaluable platform for young artists to gain access to the industry and acquire more exposure.
