:scust:This nygga Rain does not give a fukk.

He should have been exposing his personality along time ago because he's good on these interviews too.

I will officially give his mixtape/album a listen now.
I did 3-4 tracks. You'll be surprised how good it is. He's polished, production is correct, bars crisp. @Spud34

That actually makes for a good topic to go into. For a form of entertainment where nyggas generally become numb, what are some recent battles where nyggas where getting visibly upset by what was being said to them?
Anyone who beats Official. That's her weakness.

As someone who's been a Rain fan for about 2 years now, I'm glad he's slowly shaking off the "Who is this nikka?" stigma he had attached to him. He's honestly one of the better rappers in the industry, he just doesn't benefit from being connected to battle rap.

Also, imagine if Smack finally set up Rain vs Daylyt in a one-off. shyt would get Shabba Ranks :banderas:

Being affiliated with battle rap does him almost no good. Battle rap fans can be extreme haters. And because he doesn't battle, a lot of battle fans have already made up their minds that he is wack. Especially because he talk a lot of that pro Black shyt.

If he wasn't affiliated with battle rap, we wouldn't be talking about him or know who he is, bet that

There are thousands of Rain's out there on soundcloud or w/e that we'll never find out about

The battle rap connection is an extremely good look for rain. It's just a gift and a curse because it definitely it comes with stigma attached and fans make judgments. though it seems like he's finally shaking that and standing out on his own

I have to agree. Rain got damn near 8 mixtapes and wouldve gotten lost in the shuffle. Getting affiliated with SMACK URL like has, helped him out a whole lot.

It's not that he's just vulgar, he's clever,witty, & vulgar. This type of combination right there is just ugly.

Just listening to this nygga in interviews & diss tracks, if he where to somehow make that translate to a stage (which we all know is an entirely different environment), he would have nyggas visibly upset. These nyggas for the most part become numb to the shyt said to them on stage (except Math).'

That actually makes for a good topic to go into. For a form of entertainment where nyggas generally become numb, what are some recent battles where nyggas where getting visibly upset by what was being said to them?

obviously Math and Bigg K
Brizz saying Cave Gang has registered sex offenders
whatever Quest McCody/Marv Won said to K Shine for him to start pushing
Anyone mentioning Clips pops gets Clips upset

this is all i can think of as far as recently

Oh my, what a nice coincidence that the league he's affiliated with has him involved in a feud where he releases a song the day before the event that's named after his album

Could be a watershed moment for battle rap if they're able to promote him to a higher level off this :ehh:

He was writing for Dr. Dre, he didn't need battle rap.

Guys like Rain are never gonna be big industry stars. He's gonna make music that will have a small core fan base and make most of his money writing for big artists. That's how guys like Rain eat.

K-Shine wasn't shaken by what they said he pushed them because they was getting close and thought they were about to do something.
