Why wouldn't he if he heard something from a credible dude? This shyt is backed by a label that Budden is a part of it's not some far fetched shyt. I could def see this shyt being swung in his favor that's just my opinion though. :yeshrug:

like I said, because (battle rap) fans are not idiots... if he clearly wins & judges say Joe was better, ppl can figure it out themselves.

now, he's putting himself in a "safe" situation. because if it's debatable/close battle and judges say Joe won, Hollow & ppl who wanna see him win/Joe lose can always use this as argument. almost makes me feel like he doesn't trust his own skills enough (I'm probably wrong but :manny:)


I'm not saying it's not possible, I'm just saying that him saying this before the battle is just dumb.

Bruh this isn't about battle rap fans right now because they aren't the one's judging the battle. The three judges ultimately decide their fate. I'm not saying I'll agree with them but since it's judged if it's rigged Hollow will have to live with recorded L on his record.

Hollow is full of show. It's not rigged. He's just making excuses for when he loses.

Rappers get ready for 'Total Slaughter' rap battle

NEW YORK (MYFOXNY) -


"Eminem Presents Total Slaughter" is one of the most anticipated hip hop events of the year. It is a rap battle between Joe Budden and Hollow Da Don.

We caught up with Budden in a midtown recording studio. He said it will be big. How big? Try millions of fans. The street art form known as battle rap is now going mainstream on pay per view. Think of it as a match up of the best that combines the fierce competition of a Floyd Mayweather boxing match with the musical challenge of American Idol and lots of audience involvement.

Competitors duked it out in the Total Slaughter rap battle league launched by Eminem's Shady Films.

The Total Slaughter main event pits hip hop and reality TV star Budden against battle rap powerhouse Hollow Da Don.

We tried to reach Hollow but sources say he's in seclusion at his mother's house in Florida prepping for battle. Some say it's risky for a major star like Budden to go up against someone who does nothing but battle rap. But Budden isn't worried and says he's more than ready.

Personal jabs are part of the game plan and no sensitive spots are off limits in the verbal sparring, except maybe one: the artists' children.

Fan fever was so high it spawned a reality TV show called "Road to Total Slaughter." One of the stars who will battle it out is Detroit's own Marv 1, who famously battled Eminem in the movie "8 Mile."

Women are getting into battle rap too, but aren't in this event -- yet.

Promoters are being tight lipped about the prize money. Rappers can make from $3,000 to $10,000 per battle. Hollow Da Don has won prizes of up to $40,000. This event is expected to pay rappers record-setting amounts of cash.

Order it breh. To avoid sounding cliche, support the culture

The more PPVs they sell, the more likely they are to continue producing good cards
