It's FreshURL my dude... what do you expect? K-Shine isn't popular like that, neither is Clips. Anybody can headline a url event if you pack the card with names the way they do. If you aren't Hollow, Mook or Lux, you aren't selling a card by yourself. I've seen Clips battle Yung Ill with less than 50 people in attendance. If URL headlines with K Shine, with an undercard full of no names, the event would go double wood.

Clips is one of the most popular battle rappers today point blank and period. In terms of overall popularity and name recognition I would place him fourth after Lux, Mook, and Hollow. Even the most casual fan knows who he is

You can't use the sneakerbeast event to gauge anything, that was 2 years ago. His stock rose A LOT in those two years

I don't think clips always does a good job booking himself (less is more) or building his brand but to say he's not popular is just nonsense

He battled Hollow & Rex and CLEARLY had the crowd both times. It's crazy to suggest he isn't really popular.
Cheddahouse events look like they are literally in the middle of nowhere. The owner (dude looks like a monstrous troll), the crowd & a lot of the battlers are super strange. Like AHAT weird. I can't hold that turnout against Clips.

He had the crowd against conceited too. Even those YouTube trolls comment "Clips 3-0" when he's not even battling. I don't find it particularly funny but it does show he's a well known name in battle rap. Every casual fan knows who he is

I never said Clips isnt popular, I said him and K Shine arent that popular... Do not mention Mook, Lux and Hollow in the same sentence as Clips. He's clearly not on their level of popularity. The chedderhouse battle was released late 2014. It was headlined by Clips vs Heartless.. Like 30 people showed up. :skip:

Its really mindblowing to me how you guys entertain the idea that NWX can compete with WB in any shape or form. :mindblown:
That was a 4 battle URL card for $30 bucks.. the turnout was horrendous. You think people wouldn't come out to see Mook or Lux for $30? Quit the bullsh*t.



Explain a Clips headliner drawing nobody for the chedderhouse event?

Why these nikka look like they battling in front of a short order burger window?

lol im laughing that url dropped that quiet room battle. at the time since clips only clearly lost to magic people was trying to give him the win even though he stumbled throughout a one round battle. of course he did the martin shyt, spit a bunch of trash and then "buckshots like pams brother" his dikkriders go crazy and he "won" but after the hollow battle people prob gonna be like clips lost to jjdd too now and was unprepared? and a lot of new fans dont even know the battle is old, it only dropped on quietroom almost 2 years ago ,

k shine is def popular or he wouldnt be on every card, but until this verb battle he had been bullshyting for a while though his bars were at least good vs wavy

even though clips is popular and hes seen as more of a legit contender i guess for goat than con and hitman, in terms of straight popularity there is really no way hes close to them, theyre both on wild n out that alone puts them ahead of clips. hollows 2nd was really ether, clips shoild be way more popular than he already is and hes not out of laziness
