:aicmon: Not surprised. Around this time we usually have a good idea of who's gonna be on the card but this year we got nothing.

Can't even blame Smack seems like these battle rap nikkas are acting funny.

Damn, I was hopin' that one of these days Smack was gonna put out a fantastic trailer with some ill matchups...

But at the same time, he kinda fukked it up himself by organizing NOME3 that close to Summer Madness.

Told y'all mook opened a door that was going to be hard to close with that "how much they pay you solomon?" Its all his fault.

Who the fukk backs out of summer madness? To do what? Gotta be one of the diva ass old "legends"

Thats why I said put the hungry young dudes up and if these "legends" really want to come back then they shouldn't have a problem with doing it at a non peak event.

Some of these guys need a reality check

In this small world of battle rap they stars but in the big picture they struggling artist making a name for themselves through battle rap hanging they hats on a couple of million views when it's dancing cats that get 20 million views

A lot of them need to get over themselves

Not mad at anybody trying to get there's but in the end all this going over board with money is going to do to URL what it did to smack DVD and sadly the same guys who ruined Smack DVD are back ruining URL

If nikkas are backing out/asking for more money I better see a flawless performance from every single person at summer madness 3. Every battle better be a classic or debatable. Enough is enough now...fukk the bullshyt, you nikkas aren't celebs outside of this battle shyt.

Battle rappers are dumb as shyt for the most part and don't look at the big picture. They are not business men. Summer Madness is great exposure. It's the wrestlemania of battle rap. It's a time where the casual fan will tune in to hear what you have to say. The whole point is to use that moment to branch into other things.

Why not show off your writing skills to potentially be a ghost writer?
Why not show off your charisma to get a shot at television? (Conceited)

It's like Lux. That niigga didn't do shyt after that Calicoe battle but sale a few t-shirts. These guys are just content making a lil money & fukking battle rap groupies.

These niiggas are hilarious. They act like they're too good to battle, but yet be working low level retail jobs.

Californ-i-a by way of BK
Being a battle rapper has to be weird. Cause they get the same treatment that big mainstream rappers get from fans, shyt a lot of mainstream rappers ARE their fans. So I can see how that builds an ego, but at the same time, they don't make the money to match the fame. So they're in a weird place.

You also have to wonder - at SM2 you saw Diddy, Q-Tip, Busta and others talkin' about how much they love this shyt...why can't they sponsor Lux and others, that shyt is like pocket change for them anyway.

Or Smack should cancel everything for a while and just let these idiots starve. GT is dead, KOTD won't pay that much, UW is practically dead - where they gonna go? Make a new league with the same quality as Hitman vs Math?
