I mean, I like the overall scope of battle rap and different styles. But hey, I guess my opinion on that got overlooked. It is what it is. fukk it. I just think it's dumb to take shots at the leagues but not give them credit when they are successful. And the battles on URL people have trashed, I've been fans of. But you can't say that because most people like to flow with a majority opinion. I don't and if that's how I feel, thats how I feel. All this false narrative shyt all because wiz, MJ, and a few others disagree with me is corny.
Self evaluation is the worst evaluation breh. This isn't because people disagree with you. Calm down.

There's no self evaluation and I've been calm. I'm just not going to let you all throw shyt out there and not give me a chance to respond. I'm clearing the air because apparently when you disagree with people on here, nikkas like wiz and you like to paint a picture isn't true. Like you probably did Lyt and someone else on here. My shyt outside of battle rap, don't speculate on it and spread lies because you disagree with me. That's the other thing I was saying to you.

I love how fukk sh!t in battle rap always crosses over into TBZ. Sh!t is consistent like hat slam from Rex

This week I noticed that whenever a post compliments kotd it's usually.an ardamus post. TBZ is pretty bias.

KOTD puts on good battles, no one is saying they don't. The only problem is when they don't use their own talent and/or have fukkkery involved that for some reason gets overlooked by the masses.

Diz keeping that same energy for two days in a row.

Smack touched down got immediately plugged in and gave opportunities to the homies KOTD won't :wow:

Saying TBZ is biased towards URL is pretty inaccurate tbh. We all give KOTD for their props for the quality of their PPVs and the fact that they release battles in a timely fashion. The issue is that their quality control is shaky and they indulge in just as much fukkery as URL but don't get anywhere near the same amount of criticism for it.

I've always said that I want URL and KOTD to join forces. URL handle the battles and promo, KOTD handle the infrastructure.

I'm a few mins in and Diz is talking crazy. Talkin hella shyt about KOTD and how moving forward he's gonna just battle on smack. :francis: says he signed a multiple battle deal with Smack

Saying all this shyt that Smack had to check in with "Diz's homies from the hood" and all kinds of goofy shyt. Diz sounds like a complete clown

We not doing that

It amazes me how people on this forum misinterpret what is being said. He didn't say Smack HAD to check in. He clearly said that when Smack came down, he came straight to the hood and CHOSE to network, something that KOTD won't do. In all fairness to KOTD, they are not a street league, therefore Diz shouldn't have any expectations from them to put street battlers on.

However, although Diz is an emotional guy, I'm not quite sure you can dismiss what is being said. He said it was an accumulation of things with KOTD, but Aktive not being able to battle was the breaking point. Diz played a huge part in getting Oxxxy to battle. He said Diz vs Oxxxy was locked in, and he GAVE it to KOTD. If there was an agreement for Aktive to battle and KOTD didn't fulfill their end, doesn't Diz have a valid argument?

I think the whole Diz/Cortez thing is corny from both guys.

A lot of these battle rappers are corny though. I'm surprised no one has called out Cortez for what he does. I really feel when he does go at Diz on social media, its to illustrate to Math/Nyb some sort of loyalty when in reality, him and Diz seem to have no issues in person.:russ:

At least Hollow never tried to create tension with Diz that isn't there.

I will even admit that I haven't criticized everything KOTD hadn't done right. Like Arcane should never get another shot on that stage and Caustic, at the very least, should have been suspended. They should have handled that Pat Stay vs Charron battle way better and they never ever should have Daylyt a title shot after the stunts he has pulled (matter of fact, him wiping ball sweat on Loe Pesci you could argue was assault). And they haven't really taken care of the guys who have held down KOTD in the past.

KOTD puts on good battles, no one is saying they don't. The only problem is when they don't use their own talent and/or have fukkkery involved that for some reason gets overlooked by the masses.

Diz keeping that same energy for two days in a row.

Smack touched down got immediately plugged in and gave opportunities to the homies KOTD won't :wow:

Now, the talent is part is interesting. They used to with alot of the guys coming up. But it's either they didn't transcend overtime well or talent from other leagues, particularly URL, overshadowed them. However, they did help out GT when they fell off so that gave a platform to those who didn't get shine on that platform. And I give you that with Smack touching down and doing that. That was solid.

The other end of this is that Gully with the GZs is being smart and going to Detroit for talent. Tapping into other markets that have battle rappers that are talented and hungry. So point taken about the talent. I can give agree with it being shaky.

Saying TBZ is biased towards URL is pretty inaccurate tbh. We all give KOTD for their props for the quality of their PPVs and the fact that they release battles in a timely fashion. The issue is that their quality control is shaky and they indulge in just as much fukkery as URL but don't get anywhere near the same amount of criticism for it.

I've always said that I want URL and KOTD to join forces. URL handle the battles and promo, KOTD handle the infrastructure.

That last part, yes. That would be dope and I'd love to see them combine forces to see what they come up with.

Again, I can give you all that the talent can be shaky. You gotta pick and choose thru the talent and see who you wanna fukk with. And it depends on what you rock with. Street style battle rap I will like but for me, I came up hearing that but also that off the top/backpacker shyt too. So maybe KOTD caters to my taste in that more than SMACK URL does. I dunno. Good comments everyone. I can respect your views.
