It's not just two battles with Ron, he always had a lot of racist material. Smack style rappers don't have interest in battling rappers like that. None of the people you named do race based angles. Caddy didn't need to go that route, but hey that was his choice.

But you're acting like that was his only way of even winning battles when he actually could do all that shyt tho. And you're right, he didn't need to that route; in some of the battles and his rep, shyt backfired. But at t he same time, I don't think that would exclude him from hanging with some of the Smack comp. I disagree with you on that.

I knew Cadalack Ron.

I think we have a song together... :jbhmm: I can't remember.
Anyway, I just want to say that although it is unfortunate that he is gone, it is unsurprising to me.

He lived a very (self)destructive life, and I argued with him and others many times over it. Everyone doing drugs is one of the reasons I stopped doing music altogether.

Everytime I see one of these R.I.P. threads my heart drops cause I feel like one day its gonna be Dumnfoundead or Saht or somebody I came up with and that scares me to death.

:mjcry:

Some might say that its better to simply remember Cadalack Ron and not focus on the negative... but the problem with that is when you are in the public eye and kids are watching your battles and listening to your music them they see you shooting up and sniffing and drinking lean and stuff... you are making those same youth think that shyt is okay for them to emulate.

One of the worst things I have ever seen in hip hop is when he shot up on cam during that battle and some people in the crowd were actually receptive to it.
:sadcam:

I had words with alot of people after that.
Like I said... I didn't agree with alot of his choices, but even so... :rip:

See, I almost didn't post about this because alot of newer (and maybe older) fans are like fukk him he was a confirmed supremacist but alot of people who knew him in person (black, white, latino, etc) has offered up a different story about the dude consistently. So, with that said, with Ron doing what he did in battles, I wanna ask this: is there truly a limit of what the fukk you can say in a battle? I'm not talking contractual agreements per battle, I mean overall. All day, most of the popular battle rappers have bars about brothas killin one another or their families, robbin them, bustin nuts on they baby momma forehead, and etc. fukkin personal info gets put out there and all that. So we get a white dude who learns how to rap, has a drug habit, clearly dealt with some issues in his life, homeless, joins gangs, went to prison, coined as a racist, and takes on that role battle rap. I'm asking this because, we all enjoy this gun/drug/street/pimp shyt but, when someone of a different race is crazy disrespectful, in a sport (technically it is) where there's no commission to regulate what can be said and not (I'm taking the league out of this for now), is there a limit?

yeah there a line

it's called knowing where you stand. you're white apparently so I ask why is it white dudes always wanna push it? why push boundaries you don't have to? why can't y'all understand hip hop is BLACC CULTURE? you're disrespecting something YOU wanted to be in. YOU were intrigued by but did not create. your parents fought against it. y'all rocc n rolling hip hop right in front of our faces and he's the battle rap face of it. shouldn't be around hip hop with his views. nobody gives a fucc what them other dudes say about um. if he said what he said in the Midwest he would have died.

and we talk to each other how we want because we are bound by a CULTURE. friend or foe it's how we talk. you can't relate it don't resonate kinda like calicoe drug bars. I'm of the impression most of these kotd dudes grew up outside of hip hop and now wanna make rules.

Damn, LOL. Seems like everytime you pose a question around that's different from someone's view on something, you get accused of being....what's that....a CAUC? Let me state this again....

See, I bring this question up because, battle rap thrives off disrespect. Always has; with no limits even unspoken rules. I just think him dying and all these fans going off about it is why I'm asking this (let me guess, you saying that KOTD is trying to make the rules means you don't know that KOTD been around for a while; and mind you, I was around when the SMACK DVDs were out, the Blaze battles, Fight Klub, and Scribble Jam was big). And you threw insults at me when and all I did was ask a question. My point is, in battle rap, it has gotten to the point where anything goes and there is no point where people thought, maybe some of the content should be regulated. Cause now we have an interesting situation here. Just a question.

If I had to guess, you were in the Unbias and AFM forums doing this same thing. Ah well......

never

IM a real fan. kotd not the first of its kind and neither are URL. elements league was the first written league. and like now felt disenfranchised from the culture. not of the culture fans of pieces of it. bigg k is one of my favorites. its a feel, again, you can't relate it won't resonate. I grew up in the freestyle era literally. I respect it. supernatural would've broke his jaw. juice rhyme fest, Marv, quest, swann, c rayz man I can go on and on. eyedea didn't use shocc bars why not be like that. why not respect what you're trying to take part in.

I'm grown I don't do social media or forums other than here. I'm of the culture, from the bottom, and blacc in the inner city. what about your history says hip hop? what about his? his family acted... he grew up in hollywood. what makes 95% of y'all worthy of stepping into hip hop and disrespect the foundation of its existence?

I don't call cacs n shyt get offline and get use to normal conversation.
