Louisville vs Kentucky Basketball Anthem
An original Louisville vs Kentucky Basketball Rap Anthem… Listen to it loud, Louisville and Kentucky fans!
One of the fans The Rivalry: Red V. Blue wrote “Tell Em,” an original rap anthem inspired by the documentary.
Versityle, a local hip hop artist based out of Louisville, saw the film during its theatrical release and created a song for us, which we love by the way. Thanks, Versityle! Over the weekend we created a video for “Tell Em” using some of our favorite photos from Red V. Blue.

Versityle “Tell E” (aka VTE), or simply Verse, is originally from Louisville, KY, and has been all over the world, with his music reflecting that international flair as well as his Southern roots. Versityle began in music as a producer in 2004, and then debuted as a lyricist with Awaken Records in 2007 on the “Big Dreams” compilation. Since then, he has performed at many venues in the Louisville metro area with Awaken Records label mates Wyde Awake, Militant, and Kid Cos.
Versityle has also worked with other Kentucky artists, such as the Derby City Boys, Bona-Fide, Macaroni, Too Tall, and DJ KGee. Versityle’s style is self-descriptive, combining repetitive phraseology (e.g., Kool G Rap, AZ, Lupe Fiasco) with rhythmic delivery and singing. He animates stories with realistic and comical punchlines and at times delivers wise lessons to his audience. Versityle’s production is laced with bass-heavy, soulful and jazzy instrumentation.
