Roc shouldnt have to be reduced to favor battles for Smack.

I know Smack personally said he's gonna get JJDD more battles, but if someone isnt tryna battle him at SM, Then just wait for the next card

Smack's fetish with TODD, DNA, Verb etc.. is disturbing

TODD is not summer madness material. He just isn't. and that's coming from somebody who actually likes him

He should headline the warm up card, throw Ill Will a bone or something and let them battle each other

Todd vs Tay Roc on SM5 makes no sense to the point it's almost insulting to the fans

Bruh. At the end of his second round, that nikka Day was snappin, too bad the host cut him off and stopped his time :snoop:
I understand being fair to the other battler, but if I'm hosting one of these events, unless the other rapper DEMANDS the time limit be enforced I'm letting them go. No point in paying that money and having the fans spend that money to cut dudes off when they're going in.

I said whats up to dude at NOME, he seemed like a chill breh

:manny:




Yea, it's something stupid like that. Considering Hollow got paid 30 or 40 racks, and UW literally went out of business after the battle, I think it's petty on Hollow's part to chase after Arsonal for another grand or whatever it is

Also Arsonal said after the Hollow/TODD scuffle at the press conference they had to pay the building a few bucks in damages. I definitely remember there was a broken mirror in the video. And they never asked Hollow to cover it, so it's basically a wash

As much as I like Hollow, I side with Arsonal on this one. It's bad business all around, but to squeeze a league that's obviously broke for more money when you already got paid a fat check is bytch sh1t to me
Especially considering Hollow is always running around talking about how he doesn't care about money and the money doesn't matter and it's bigger than that, blah, blah, blah. If Lux or Mook were complaining over the rest of their change I'd feel it more because they make it clear they're about that paper first. At the same time, being reasonable, I can't begrudge somebody trying to get every dime they can for their work. :yeshrug:

Would you say the same if your employer pays you less because you seem to be passionate about your job?

Did you not read the last line of my post?

But if I told everybody at my job that I don't care about getting paid, I'm doing it for the love, the money is just on the side, and then I got shorted essentially, what, 2.5% of my check or something I'm not sure how seriously people would take me. :yeshrug:

I did but I dont see the point in what came before that. They came to an agreement. I dont care what Hollow said before that. They agreed to a certain amount. Pay that man his money after he battled. No if's or buts about it imo.

edit: I see your point btw but I dont see how Hollow is the bad guy for wanting his money.

Hitman don't deserve twenty at this point....what was his last win? He switched places with Roc in my eyes he's a mid-proving ground-tier n*gga. 3K is what he should get
Wins don't mean shyt though when it comes to what someone "deserves" (wrong word anyway) to get paid. Your worth is in the amount of people who are going to come out to pay to see you or the views you can produce. Win or lose people fukk with Hitman... outside of Conceited he's probably the most popular battle rapper there is all things considered.
