Did anyone peep the Angryfan Hitman show? I'm wondering whether it's worth listening to or should I just wait for Cliff notes (if it's even worth that).

Yup I'm listening now. Basically Hitman is mad at how some nikkaz are saying that he's shytting on Smack. But he's only saying that smack didn't make him famous. He's got love for smack but he's tired of nikkaz sayin that he owes nick cannon for his success.

It's a good listen. Plus he's lowkey shyttin on mooks shaky resume and lowkey took shots at Lux.

@wizworld

Did you hear any nwx (dna, kshine)in Big T in the Suge battle?

From my first couple of watches, I didn't see anything that Big T has never done before. He still did drawn out schemes, he still performed the same way, he still did sound effects. Imo how they help him is figuring out what to keep, and what to cut. He does a bunch of different segments in each round, it wouldn't be hard to go through his weaker rounds in battles and just delete whole sections that didn't hit. That's the best thing they can do for him. Make sure he keeps the material where the punchline lands, make sure he keeps the energy & performance up.
I'm curious as to whether the rest of NWX heard all 3 rounds, or if they just heard the first 2 :russ:.

Did anything in particular stick out to you?

I'm talking about style & influence.

I'm asking wiz specifically, because he has the ear as well to spot that kind of shyt
I know you ain't ask me, but I generally pick up on rappers in general having influences from peers. Big T sounded like Big T. Not even necessarily a better version, just energized. He always had a way of sticking to a topic just long enough that you can feel it getting corny, but managed to round those edges with a little more performance/crowd help. He switched up the flow a lot though.. might have gotten general feedback on that, though he always had a tendency to switch it up.

The thing that stands out about all of them (big t, k shine, & dna) is the clarity in their voices. Vocally, all 3 sound so much cleaner.

I immediately noticed in his dont flop battle actually. Shine against dose, dna vs city towers, etc

Thats about it though. A concious effort to sound as clear as possible.

Now shine & dna are a different case. You can clearly hear their influence on each other.
