Emilio Rojas - Hailing from Rochester, NY, Emilio Rojas has been a behind-the-scenes player in the underground hip hop scene for a minute now. His buzz has helped him gain an international following and he released the DJ Green Lantern-produced mixtape The Natural in 2009. With a steady stream of mixtapes released since then, it's safe to assume he will bring the same hunger to The Cypher.(Photo: Rebecca Smeyne / BET)
