That's funny, I guess Yakman is giving $500 to anybody that 2-1's somebody in an Al Capone shirt, and $1000 if they 3-0 them.

I like that guys can make additional money. But cmon, it's battle rap, how do you really determine that something's a 2-1 or a 3-0? It's not a real sport lol. So all you can go off is fan voting? I'm not mad at it, it just doesn't really make sense.

I was with you til you said this shyt. Don't insult them nikkas bro. They put in work. I get what you mean but nah don't do that.

Relax man, not like I was on some Surf shyt and called these dudes "Survivor Supreme ass nikkas" lmao

It wasn't a random shot at those guys, it's more of a continuation of the case I'm making for JC being a legend. Those guys were in a group with him, and are dope battlers in their own right. But Big Kannon is a regional legend at best.

Unless things turn around for Danny quick, he will be remembered as a regional guy. B Dot, Geechi & Rum will make it hard for him to keep the attention on himself. Geechi's success says a lot about how West Coast battle fans feel about Danny Myers. Geechi started back to back punching like Danny Myers and now he's on Summer Madness. Tsu Surf pulled out, we didn't hear anyone say "Hey, let's get Danny on there, since it's a Vegas card". They went and got JC.

So Danny & Big Kannon have never been there, JC has been there, left, and then came back.

JC is above Bigg K, Chilla & my beloved O-Red as well. Out of the active bar heavy big name male battlers, right now I only see Verb, Solomon, JC, Surf & Illmac as legends. Am I missing anyone?
Despite the foolishness, Daylyt & B Magic will be remembered as legends too, but they aren't really active.

Bro, I follow this shyt a lot and I always want more of just judging for all these battles to be honest.

And don't do that either because you know what happened with Danny's situation at Summer Madness. NJT canceled the Invitation battle because he was drunk bascially and was still booked for SM7. They offered him Trez and a while ago Danny said he would never battled him because of their good friends and he felt it wouldn't be as authentic which I understand if it might be underwhelming. And they knew Danny should have been on that car since he got his start in AHAT out there.

Geechi, I understand. Don't throw him in the mix. This is what I'm trying to tell you. You threw random names in there as stepping stones to make it point. You sound like you just like dismissed Kannon and Danny for working their way up in comparison.

That's fine with them getting JC because he did work his way back up. But you did throw in a backhanded comment for no reason and I figured I'd call it out. shyt, you'd do the same with me and YOU HAVE. LOL. Like I said, you made your points but that line wasn't necessary.

That Mook vs Verb battle is like 8 years to Kate and a waste of time. I'd rather Mook take on a real challenge and battle a younging, then just come out and throw weak punches against old men so he gets to look strong.

If Mook not gonna battle Hollow or Roc or somebody like that he might as well go the fux away.
Hollow and Roc are the youngins you talking about? :dwillhuh:

Surf got to be smarter. Certain things shouldn’t be said on social media :snoop:
He reminds me way too much of someone who I knew that was in the life. Ya'll better enjoy Surf while you have him.
It sucks no one else I know IRL is into battle rap (episode #22334) :mjcry:

So I was teaching my mother how to use the tablet I got her for her bday, basically showing her how to navigate around and find the apps she likes to use (chrome, youtube etc) and I felt like channeling Surf for some reason:

Me: "Alright ma, you just click this icon here and it'll bring up the list of apps and you'll be able to find youtube in there" :myman:

Mom: "Alright so..this icon here right? the little house?" :patrice:

Me: "Oh no, not the little house, the icon with the six little square there....what, I gotta put it in subtitles or something?" :troll:

Mom: "Who do you think you're talking to like that? You calling me stupid?" :usure:

Me: "Oh no no no:whoa: I was just asking if you needed further clarification that's all :mjcry:

Mom: "Alright then" :mjpls:

I think I'll just keep the battlerap stuff to myself :to:
:russ: I made my people understand battle rap, even if I got to put it in basic terms. I call Surf "the guy I told you that was sleeping on Joe Budden couch," Lux is "the preacher," Mike P is "the Italian guy the black guy said Do The Right Thing to," Math is "the black guy that got punched by the Arab" Roc is "the guy from Baltimore" etc. etc. :dead:

I mean I'm not trying to give him no choking ass Chess or Shotgun or Surf. or anybody like that. Consistent dudes that come with 3 rounds and always prepared. And have not been struggling of late.

Those guys were mentioned because of Writers Bloque, a battle rap clique notorious for not being able to promote themselves & staying close to the exits at events. JC was part of that crew, and I think being associated with that hurts JC's stock a little.

Writers Bloque was the "Slaughterhouse" of battle rap.

You skippin over a LOT of people :heh: damn near the entirety of mid-tier rappers could body mook

:mjlol: @ chess even being a name that popped up, he's an outlier amongst the newer dudes, the only other "youngin" who chokes consistently is Twork, everyone else typically brings 3 consistent rounds
