Loud.com, the recently relaunched online competition giving aspiring artists the chance to win a record deal with SRC, has announced that G-Unit's Sha Money XL, Midi Mafia and Al Kapone have joined its production team, allowing their tracks to be available to contestants.

The competition is open to all of Loud.com's registered users, giving them the ability to download professional beats from hip-hop's biggest names for just $0.99, use an online recording tool to overlay raps over these tracks have the songs judged by celebrity producers and compete for $100,000, in addition to the record deal with SRC Records, home of artists such as Akon and David Banner.

"We haven't even started yet," said SRC Records founder, Steve Rifkind. "LOUD.COM will be the biggest online hip-hop community and incubator for both MCs and producers; we don't look at LOUD.COM as a music site, we look at it as an online community for a culture and lifestyle."

The newly added aforementioned producers join an already impressive list of hitmakers on board, including Cool & Dre, Green Lantern, DJ Khaled, David Banner and others. It's not stopping there though, Rifkind reveals that more will be announced soon.

"The support from the industry has been amazing," the music mogul said. "We will be announcing a lot more producers as the site progresses. These producers charge up to $250,000 for a beat and users can download a track for .99 cents and use our recording tool, so all they need is a microphone."

That sounds like a great side venture for Steve Rifkind. Although it’s nothing new, this guy has a genuine eye for ambition and talent, he was the guy who found the Wu-Tang Clan as well as Mobb Deep, as he was the founder of their previous record home Loud Records. And as we all know, he found the worldwide superstar that is Akon not to long ago. The producer line-up looks sick also; the group and person mentioned in the title, Midi Mafia and Sha Money XL respectively, are incredible on the boards, their two of my personal influences anyway. All the best with this project, it sounds like a real healthy way to get people to do constructive things with their time.
