The rules of the competition are simple: download Chip Tha Ripper’s song from the contest homepage; you, your squad or your crew create the video for it; upload the video to YouTube; and fill out the form letting Hoop Connection know your video’s link.

The song’s creator, our man Chip Tha Ripper (legal name Charles Worth) is an up-and-coming 22 year-old rapper who hails from St. Clair—Superior, on the east side of Cleveland, Ohio.
