URL are bytches for this. Them crushing RBE doesn't help the culture. The more dope battles being put out, the more battlerap will grow.

Plus, its like they both may not make back the money on these events like they'd like to. Pretty sure both leagues have damn near the same audiences except SMACK URL gets a bigger draw. Maybe they'll shift around the times, I dunno. But that is suspect they'd do it at the same time.

Crab in a barrel mentality at work in New York


Who woulda guessed it :mjlol:

I think that by now, we know URL doesn't do things in the interest of battle rap. Sometimes, they don't even act in a way that seems conducive to their own advancement. I guess the 400 PGs are enough, and they don't care to continue catching contact high from unaffiliated leagues.

Unfinished Business will be sold out. I really hope both events aren't slated for the same time. Maybe the people who can't get in will head over to BST4.

To keep it a stack, there is maybe three battles on each card that I want to see.

I might go to the RBE card if I'm around that weekend :yeshrug:

Here's a thought....
If RBE can afford Bigg K, then Smack should be able to afford him too, right?
I think Bigg K will be coming back to NYC later this summer......

No doubt that Bigg K was only a matter of time. I'm surprised it's taken this long.

I just hope that when the time comes, he comes with three rounds of Bigg K and leaves the kitty cat jokes in Canada or wtf ever.

Unfinished Business 2 July 9th

Same days as RBE event
URL trying to send a message with this.. But most of all.. The Karma from that Rosenburg Raw shyt bout to come back to bite ARP.
Honestly.. Other than BiggK and Showoff.. Nobody wants to see those other matchups..
Attendance wise,URL is gonna crush RBE on that Day!!

I dont see what the Problem is,ARP always talk about "It's a Competition" Well now we will see,lol

i doubt URL did this on purpose, they had to scramble for a new venue/date. If this was the only date available would yall say naw lets wait?

I mean they blocked Hitman's whole event not that long ago. Just sayin.....it looks like a pattern. Hope they can work together tho for both events.

Yeah. No one is really taking into account how fukked up the venue situation is for hip-hop events in NYC right now.
Everyone loves to hear Smack URL related conspiracy theories though, whether they are sensible or not.
Remember when everyone swore Dot vs Young X was getting vaulted?

They kept 2 people from battling, who made their own choice. Chilla isnt under a URL contract but he also doesnt wanna burn bridges after waiting 2 years to get back on URL. Especially for a league just starting out tryna specifically go for URL talent. Hitman didnt even attempt to come up with alternative card says a lot about what he was gonna keep doing.

I'm not disagreeing with you on any of this; til this day, I still don't like the fact shyt got blocked and not rebooked but that's me. But you're right. Like I said, past actions makes it look like something else otherwise. Pretty sure Beaseley, Norbes, or SMACK will say something later on about this.

Do you really believe that bullsh*t you typed??? URL has a history of fukking over their competitors. Stop being so naive. They did this on purpose, period.

Some of you will :cape: for URL no matter what. :scust:

So fukking what though? That's BUSINESS. Any business is SUPPOSED to try to stomp out their competition. Y'all value the culture over the business, as you should as fans, but you can't expect the business to value the culture over their own interests.

SO...with the shyt that went down its not even a possibility they took the soonest date as possible?

this shyt ain't gonna hurt no fukking RBE because tickets were already sold for the event other than the ones who had to be refunded

Some of you nikkas think URL is the devil and the big bully on the block no matter what :pacspit:
