DNA and K-Shine don't have the power to rock the boat on ESPN. Hell, Stephen A. Smith couldn't rock the boat on ESPN. ESPN is the power, they just let the people you see on television use it.

Well what I mean by rock the boat is more like, not tow the line, like Jemelle Hill did when she criticized Trump.
Oh, nah, I feel where you're coming from...
I'm just saying they'd get that same treatment Jemele just got.
I haven't even really followed the shyt though, are Shine and DNA supposed to be on there regularly or something? I just assumed it was some one-off type shyt.
We should of ran that clown out of battle rap years ago.

Unpopular Opinions About Battle Rap
I feel like across the board,, even just beyond our community, people will excuse so much shyt for money. You go against it, our people talk like its a broke nikka mentality. And that's fukked up because when nikkas say that, I'm like aight so you'd snitch for the bread, backstab for the bread, and all that. fukk is wrong with them? I'm all for providing for your family but having some morals over money isn't necessarily a bad thing. Can't let shyt with materialism get a hold on you all the time because it can divide you from that. How the fukk did they think the term for sell out amongst us came about? The flipside: nikkas starve trying to fight the good fight and can't fight when they need to eat. So therefore, capitalism like other forms of societal living, gives us the resources to live when we work for it. Anyways, that's a different story.
I would love to see it, too. But see, I bet like Hill, possibly, they signed some shyt that prevents them from trying to rock the boat. In their battles, well at least DNA, they'll speak on that shyt somehow I guess. I dunno.
I dont think anything to do with this situation has dropped the ratings, its the internet in general dropping ratings. they said the same shyt when Kap first started kneeling that the cac would stop watching, people arent gonna stop watching football on a big scale ever
Let me tell TBZ a story. When I was 19 years old, I was chilling with a couple dudes I went to high school with. We were posted outside at the gas station just chilling. An "OG" came by. He was talking. Spit 15 minutes of nonsense. After this guy spit some nonsense, these two nyggas were like "man he was spitting some knowledge." That was the day I realized that a lot of these Og's arent shyt. See, when you become an actual adult, and able to study how they moved, you realize you can't take these guys seriously.
Let's talk about Mysonne. He claims to be a "General," but he was robbing cab drivers. He proceeded to run to Vladtv and do a "I didn't do it" interview. How can anyone respect this nygga?

Am I the only one that thinks that JC vs T-Top is what Ave vs T-Top SHOULDVE been?
What are you trying to say?
If ttop is a real top tier, he should be able to beat a mid tier pen guy.
Jc is a punching bag to these kind of guys because he can't do more.

What I mean is that around the time the T-Top vs Ave battle was being talked about, Ave was the new punchline battler with a ton of hype behind him, esp after that classic with Nitty. Ave didn't have the same aura by the time he battled Top at SM.
T-Top vs JC is kinda the same thing, but without the history. A top tier vs the hottest puncher out.
You keep saying if. There is no if, because he's not. Period. Hes the must popular out of the class he came up with. But he's not a top teir period.
I’m technically in the boycott. Like all other parts of society the NFL is extremely racist. What I been doing is watching the games through streaming to avoid giving them ratings. But you are right. I doubt the boycott is making a big dent in ratings. The NFL have a lot of problems. I think it is a combination of things. The discussion on CTE is not helping, and like you said the internet.
