Interests
Favorite Artists/Bands: Even though we all like hip-hip, the staff has diverse interests in music. If you walk through our office during any given day you will witness an eclectic collection of music spewing from our speakers. If complex kung fu programming is required that day, Mozart may emerge, as his music is conducive to thinking prowess. When one of us threatens to throw a person out the window we conjure up Bob Marley to defuse the bad vibes. If a banning spree is involved, we put on Rage Against The Machine and build a bon fire, into which we cast all scooped up Goldmic felons.

History: Goldmic was founded on August 2nd, 2001 originally as Openmic. We operated under that moniker for 2 years, during which time we quickly became the #1 battle site on the web due to our innovative approach to battling. Our member base grew rapidly from 22 members on our first day to several thousand. To maintain the integrity of the site during such growth, our staff has had to continuously come up with problem-solving site features. That creative process continues to this day, and after reaching the far corners of the world with a historical 200,000+ battle count we come to present day Goldmic. Behold, a new era is beginning. :)
Interesting Fact: Many of Goldmic's first members are still with us today. So who was the first member to sign up on August 2nd, 2001? His MC name is Chope, and still today, he remains the member with the largest collection of posted verses in his rhymes folder. We have given him free lifetime Premium membership for being member #1. :)
Style: Goldmic represents all styles of hip-hop talents.
