Why don't you dudes understand that Smack just wants free battles/footage? He has no intention of letting 90% of these new nikkas eat on a big stage. The ultimate con man. :heh:
Smack doesn't do business with Bigg K, Rosenberg, Danny Myers, QP, or Ty Law but feeds TODD :snoop:

That's definitely understandable because they are cheap.

It's getting to the point where the URL HAS to get new talent at their big events though.

Who the hell can they really book for Nome/SM 5? An all rematch card?

I do feel it's a confidence issue though. Ill Will is the only they had the confidence in to really push him. The reality of it is, out of class of 15 pg nyggas, only a couple of them each year a really ready for the main stage.

This is what a lot of us have been preaching for the longest. We've been making jokes about the same names on every card since nome3. I've come to the realization that Smack will always book old names and use the new names for free footage. :yeshrug:

He probably does business with TODD because TODD is cool with Bow, and top tier battlers don't fear TODD in a battle.

Man if I ran URL, half of Smack favorites wouldn't even be allowed in the building. :banderas:

Regardless of how anybody feels about the Cassidy/Dizaster match up, I'm so glad that you have people in battle rap involved in this event. I'm sure the presentation & the footage is gonna be on point.

For season 2, Total Slaughter really needs to get some nyggas in battle rap that have been grinding & doing this for years to be involved. The whole event was shyt. The stage was stupid. None of the battles have any replay value. It's as if the event never happened. A complete joke.

hmm it was Jaz vs Couture

I know Deebo was hating on Jaz Vs Couture because I'm sure he wanted that on his brand.

More proof Jaz is the most protected rapper in battle rap.

Norbes was like :whoa:

"Just battle once a year, the less you battle, the less you expose your flaws. Let's just focus on one great performance a year & keep up your appearances at these battles Jaz"

"We saw what happened to Hollow when he battle for a second time this year"

"Let's just keep it once a year, & act like we're busy going to the studio & working on this music, although the music never comes out"

with industry dudes it always feels like they want attention more than an actual fukkin battle

you aint see Ab-Soul be all extra in interviews n shyt talkin about battling for months before his shyt with daylyt, nikka just did it and put it out

what's stoppin any of these dudes from walkin up to smack like "aye im tryna be on the card for the next event vs. ___" we know damn well URL is gonna set that shyt up no questions asked, the infrastructure is already there, all they gotta do is show up

i dont even watch these nikkas talk about battle rap culture anymore at this point, just shut up and do it fam :camby:

So either someone cant make it or URL just added another match to SM4 because Head ice said he got a call from Beasley and said he's headed to Summer Madness.

He didnt say he was battling but its pretty much implied
