Essential The Official Battle Rap Random Thoughts Thread (URL, KOTD, UW etc...)

[wizworld]

Maybe they to do a card with all these overpriced mofos and livestream that. See if they can get these guys to agree to taking a percentage of the stream, as opposed to negotiating a big check beforehand. That way they can really prove their worth....
I don't believe Millz can generate 100k for battle rap, but I have no idea what those livestream profits look like.

But at the same time, it's probably a bad idea to open the books to all these performers, they already count the leagues pockets enough.
I had no interest in Millz, but since Tay Rock said he wants to kill him, I've kinda warmed up to that Tay Rock v Jae Millz matchup

Not enough to suggest Millz should get an astronomical payday, but now I kinda want to see Rock try to earth that nygga if they can work out something reasonable.

Agreed.

The majority of all these guys paychecks should be back end money.

Otherwise the league won't recoup, it's that simple.

There's a reason why all these promoters with deep pockets; Total Slaughter, FilmOn, Teddy Grizzle, etc. fold after one or two events. They agree to give some unproven draw boatloads of money and can't make it back.

The whole system needs to change or battle rap is fukked

Pay all battlers a flat rate for performance, then back end on the views.

1k views = $1
5k views = $5
500k views = $500
1 million views = $1,000
10 million views = $10,000

Shyt is tough though. Even though battling is at an all time high, its such a reality check to see that battles take years to even get a couple million views. I see Lux vs Cal sitting at 4 million. Hollow vs Lux not even at 400k.

Hollow and Lux views got squashed by UW taking forever to put the footage up though. If you count the live stream and bootleg uploads that battle is well over 1.5 million views I'm sure

iM NICE WIT DA GRAMMAR SEE





that's why they booked me for the venue


nikka prepped rounds then gave prep rounds AND whoever prep round he was supposed to expose chess/chest like Justin and Janet

Clips vs Hollow was on ppv and bootlegged but still sitting on almost 900k in 3 months time. Thats the difference between URL and the rest.

Edit: they had 2.5 good rounds together so its not even close to a classic.
