I don't understand this obsession with wanting these "mainstream" rappers to battle
I can understand why the battle rapper & leagues would want to do it. Exposure
I don't understand why an educated battle rap fan would though. This is a craft. Like any craft, you need experience. Taking a "mainstream" rapper & putting him in one battle against a top tier guy is not only a predictable outcome, but could just make for a non entertaining battle. It's bullshyt. You have to build yourself up, but the "mainstream" guy would make too much money & no promoter is gonna pay him to take a bum.
It's just stupid listening to people say "I think blah blah blah" could battle. Sure, after about 5 battles he may be able to do it.
