What will it take for a JJDD battle to be enjoyable again?
I was really rocking with him after the Money Bagz & B Magic battles. But I haven't enjoyed him nearly as much since. I felt like he was just punching back to back to back around that time, but maybe I'm bugging. I gotta go back to those battles to see if it was him that changed, or if my tastes changed.

I actually liked his battle vs. Prep. Well not liked but I didn't mind it. JJDD only issue for me really is his voice/delivery. I don't like it in battle rap. The other shyt don't really bother me.

i would say delivery and he gets easily discouraged if he doesn't get cheered for when he thinks he should. Saga has that same problem

That nikka a certified goon?

Yeah, basically a thorough, well respected Brooklyn NYC street dude who is trying to turn his life around and has now become a socialite/social media personality. Dude has pull in the streets (NYC) & online.
Tax is just going to keep shytting on Math until somebody does something. Sucks for Math because Math's whole angle has been "I need to be back in the game because the real street nyggas rock with me". But if he's not good out here anymore, then there's no real reason for Smack to take a risk on him. Math was just starting the campaign to rebuild his image too....
Hopefully someone can talk to Tax behind the scenes and it blows over.

what did tax say about math to begin with?

Nothing really. He had Tsu Surf on his Podcast yesterday and said he didn't like fighting in battle rap and said every time he turned around he saw Math punching somebody. And then said "Shoutout to Dizaster for punching Math in the face" I guess someone told Math about it, and then Math responded to Tax. Math since deleted all his Tweets to Tax, but Tax still going at him.

I don't know man. He's awful. Everything about him.

I recently watched Hitman-Todd like a few weeks ago & was amazed at how dope he was. Can't believe it was the same guy.

I think what worked for him in that battle is he imitated Hitman. His goal was to match Hitman's performance. A lot of people learn how to rap by imitating someone they admire, that's why so many people sound like someone else when they get in the game. They eventually end up finding themselves. I felt he should have did the same as a performer. Imitate Hitman's performance until he found himself.
