King of the Dot Entertainment, also known as KOTD, is a rap battle league founded in Toronto, Canada in 2008. The company’s HQ is based in Toronto, Ontario, from which it gets its name. Successful music artists such as 360 and Madchild have battled in King of the Dot.

The league began in August 2008 in an alleyway near Toronto Eaton Centre, and now features over 150 emcees, battling in Toronto, California, Calgary and Vancouver. In 2015, King Of The Dot expanded its reach to Massachusetts, USA.
Primarily featuring Canadians and Americans, emcees from countries such as England, Scotland, Australia, Sweden, Norway, Philippines and South Africa have all battled in KOTD’s annual World Domination event.
