So wait Teddy Riley was trying to charge $10 for this?

That's a bytch moves, especially when everyone else was doing it for free since fans across the country can't go out for entertainment

Can’t believe i paid for this

Damn... Teddy scammed nikkas out of they money too.

All this nikka had to do was sit his ass down... get on a computer and play his songs... that's all he had to do... but no... he got to be extra with the shyt... he got to hire a band... he had to have some old ass nikka dancing in the background like it's 1988 and he's in the hottest club in the city...




A yo Teddy... why don't you go ahead and hold this "L" for me real quick. Ol' extra ass nikka... what the fukk are you doing bruh? nikka... just play your damn songs... you don't have to perform the muthafukkas... DAMN!

and this nikka ... why Teddy... why?

I think Teddy and older artist don't understand the more gorilla style of media most people are making.

But, I understand him wanting to have a production and monetizing it.

People are really upset he doesn't want to do this for nothing.

Swizz played his songs in his fukking car

Leave it to the old heads to fukk it up. I actually didn’t know this was going down and it doesn’t look like I missed nothing. All these nikkas got to do is Connect there computer to some speakers pull up tidal and play there songs. And make sure the WiFi bill is paid.

Does Swizz and Timbaland have some kind of deal with Instagram for these to be on their platform?



I said it during the T-Pain and Lil Jon battle, but it's clear that IG from a technical standpoint is the worst platform that they are doing these on.

IG has to be giving them some bread, because outside of the social aspect of IG, these really would be way better on Youtube, Twitch or even Facebook. IG has the most "cool" clout in the Social Media category, but everybody has and knows how to use Youtube and Facebook, so why aren't they using those platforms for these instead? I'm positive that the people participating in these would appreciate being able to hook up mics, and their audio systems directly to the stream. And I'm positive that viewers would rather stream the competitions and listen to high quality audio on their TVs and home entertainment systems.

this is the first thing I said. IG is a terrible platform for media. And they even suck at uploading pictures, they force you to crop the pictures you take on your phone, like why can’t I have my full size pic? Why don’t they have a iPad app? Why does the desktop app so limited? They have all the “cool factor” now but I am sure people like Swiss is looking into other platforms after all the audio issues. This really should have been done on YouTube I would say Facebook but Facebook isn’t “ cool” anymore. IG is made for highlights and clips not live events.

I just pray the sound quality is good/great tonight.

That's the only reason.

The thing is, IG can still be used to funnel people to where ever they put these on. I typically see all of the updates for these battles on my Facebook timeline, people talk about who's battling and the time it starts etc. If they put these up on Youtube or Facebook, people would go there. Twitch would be the hardest to get general people to convert to, because a lot of the people who are checking for these aren't privy to Twitch.

IG and Facebook is going to fukk around and open the door for someone else to come in and really make this into an A1 production and really elevate this experience. The platforms already exist too, so we'll see.

Will they really be elevating the experience, or basically watering it down and sucking the fun out of it?
