I think his point is people have spit all types of Trouble lines.

I don't think a single person had that one go over their heads, family :heh:

It's not about going over heads, it's about getting the reference. The game is kind of old. Who knows how old "ooh ooh ohh" is, or if they even mess with "Trouble" like that in the UK.

It's harder having battle rap discussions nowadays, because there has become a pretty clear separation between the principles that hardcore fans want to uphold, and what actually keeps the culture going.

Rome & James Posey are both "what's keeping the culture going" guys, but the difference in the way they present their arguments is night and day. Rome is just insufferable at this point, but I guess his dry delivery, and lack of social etiquette make him stick out.
Facts. This whole argument between the older fans and newer fans has so many different dynamics to it.

The reality is, wins and loses don't matter and haven't once the cam vs. live era became a thing and battle rap became a revenue stream for people. Back in the day people lost live and that was it. There was no "let's watch this 10 times and break down each bar and see who won" element to battle rap. It was who left that block that very day with the consensus saying they won. I don't care what battle it is, unless it's a Rex/Charlie Clips situation or a JC/Time Bomb, you're gonna have enough people say the other guy won, and you'll never convince these battlers they lost now. Unless there's a judging system put in place that everyone can agree on, it's pointless really trying to argue wins and loses.

And even when we do that, that's still not gonna make people want to see you just because you win. If you're not actually entertaining, people aren't buying tickets to see you so leagues aren't gonna book you. Young Kannon can go on a 10-0 run, in all judged battles, Surf can go 0-8 and Surf is still gonna headline 10 or of 10 times over Young Kannon.

lmao this fool Daylyt called Ave a "42 year old thief"
"Him and Beasley went to school together.... YALL didn't know that?"

He said Ave has been watching battle rap over 20 years, so he's definitely stealing hahahahaha

I always have to remember to listen to Daylyt interviews and fast forward past the garbage portion where he proclaims himself some type of forward thinking genius that is making moves outside the culture. The parts where he talks about battles & other battlers are always hilarious.

Not really, and that's the point. Situation was janky. Needed to be run back years ago. Ars has been ducking
This is basically why people want to see the battle over again. Hollow stans can't accept that he could ever lose and since this was a non debatable loss for him they need to run it back so it'll be like the first one never existed. :yeshrug:

SON!!! This is me when it comes to Daylyt. I skip all the "I got a deal with Nike" nonsense (The fact that Angryfan even entertains these conversations with Daylyt is mind boggling considering how often he lies) and go straight to him breaking down battles and things happening in battle rap. That nikka is hilarious when he gets to that.

Why are we still making excuses for Hollow's embarrassing loss to Arsonal in Fight Klub? It was a tournament, they knew they were going to battle each other at some point.
And it's not like Hollow didn't do what Hollow normally does, he got personal with Ars and everything. Arsonal was just better.
And even though Ars clearly won the first two rounds and might have edged the third, they still did an overtime and gave Hollow another shot. AND HE STILL LOST.

No one ever makes these excuses for Cortez losing to Rex in Total Slaughter.

Hollow doesn't even want a rematch anymore, so how is Arsonal ducking?

Last nights AFR was a classic brehs :wow:

Danny started off dropping a lotta jewels
Danny started BARKING at Ryda as soon as he called in. Son was digging in that nikka soul
Jakkboy Mayne had to call in on some "I'mma get my big brother :sadcam:" type shyt :russ:
Posey was tagging in with the lethal angles talking bout "you lost to Jerry Wess tho:sas2:"
Jakkboy got HEATED n started talkin reckless talking bout "I'll wash all you nikkas, including Geechi"
Only for Danny to hang up and call Geechi on some ":ufdup:that's how you feel?"
Them nikkas got quiet as SHYT when Geechi called right in :dead:
Danny was talkin real filthy to them nikkas :whoo:
If he learns to channel that energy into his battles that nikka would be a whole nother monster
Mannn, Danny & Posey tag teaming on them nikkas was a family moment :blessed:

The energy slowed down when they had A Ward on the show like goin to church after a shootout on Saturday.

But it picked back up when Rome called in and Posey, CAPS and Tony Bro bodied him

Shyt was LIT

Yeah Danny is dropping some jewels, man. For all the shyt he's gotten the situations he's been in, he has the best solution to helping out battle rap. I'm all for seeing the vaulted battles on different channels. I wonder if nikkas is paying for shyt to not be released on the low tho.

If only Danny Myers had the best solution for his career :mjlol:

A broken clock is right twice a day. A dont forget Danny was the same nikka that stuck his nose in the Surf ghostwriting situation and came out looking stupid.

12 racks...losing to Steams...

Danny needs to sort himself out first.
