So you're assuming based off of the fact that they make mainstream records, that they do not follow the culture, and could not have a valid opinion/assessment?:sas1:
no dipshyt, im going off of that fact that they barely even talk about battle rap nor take part in it themselves, i'd listen to other battle rappers(who've been on stage and notice all of the little shyt) opinions before commercial artist every single time

you're the one assuming, tryna tell me why i wouldn't want those dudes judging :rudy: foh

i was asking actually... hence the "?"...

...but I wouldn't want battlers to judge, cause there would be too much bias, and potential fukkery.
I think there are a few bloggers that would make great judges.
Take 4 of them and throw in a celeb for the look, establish a ladder with not only clear winners and losers, but a visible top tier line.
:blessed:

I think worrying that there may be bad judgement is focusing on the small picture and not the
*lux voice*large picture behind it.

Judging isnt gonna be perfect, but the good will outweigh the bad.

It won't. You will lose bar quality and performance will start dominating. You one of the few level headed people in here. I'm not just saying this shyt just to say breh. I used to battle, I lived through this.Complicated bars getting overlooked in favor of light crowd exciting ones. The room will be all that matters. Trust me on this.

I tell you what, all you dudes that need someone to tell you who won a rap battles where we all know who the winner is 90% of the time how about this?

Me, @FreshAIG @MicIsGod @DEAD7 @Brooklynzson will tell you who won so you guys feel better and can sleep at night.

@cornercommission2k12 can take my spot in battles involving TODD cause I hate him so much I'm going to say Reed 3-0'd him when the footage drops.

I agree with you, and i'm not saying that wont happen, I'm saying judging would increase the visibility of the sport, and result in a net gain.


:salute:You for focusing on the craft first.
I might be sellin out the culture and not even realizin it:lupe:. Ima rethink this.
