Mecha goes all out at Red Bull International Final: “I want to rap the way I like to”

The MC from Cordoba Mecha is one of the favorites for this International Final of the Red Bull Batalla, a place he earned after finishing third in the 2022 edition. Will he be able to get the coveted belt this Saturday? The native of Carlos Paz has already visited Colombia, the host country of the event, on two occasions so far in 2023: in March for the FMS International – in which he came in second place after giving a tough battle to the Spaniard Chuty – and in July for Hip Hop al Parque. Now, the mother of battles is the excuse.” I think this was the year I was least focused on improving competitively. It’s a year in which I came across life as it is: I moved alone, I left my city to go to the capital of my country 11 hours from my house where I don’t know almost anyone and suddenly my life became a castle building and trying not to let it fall down.” opened up to Filo.news.” This year I’m learning to live and I think that’s going to be reflected in my future raps,” he adds. On one of his rivals, the Mexican Aczino, and the possibility of crossing paths with him again in the framework of the Red Bull, he said: “Since I became a professional, I think I competed against him at least once a year. It’s a lot of fun, there are always very nice battles. I think we both get really good versions of each other.” Looking ahead to the International Final, Mecha says: “I want to rap the way I like, it’s something I haven’t had for several events. I’ve been developing new things in my house, other flows, techniques and a calmer style of rapping, and suddenly on the day of the event I get nervous, I start screaming and it’s not what I’m looking for.” Red Bull brings out the best version of each one, and it’s the event where you overthink a lot and at the same time compete neatly. I want to see how this energy as important as a Red Bull is mixed with the new style that I’m wanting to incorporate to see if I can bring it to the stage.” This Saturday from 6 p.m. the International Final of the Red Bull Batalla will take place. You can follow it via the official accounts of YouTube, Twitch, Facebook.
