Rosenberg is the only person I know that can balance old school Philly battle rapper with the new school aspects (Personalization and just enough wordplay, even if it's nothing special)

Always been a big fan

One of the few battlers to ever beat Bigg K clearly
Even though DNA technically had a good round,. the way Raw did DNA was dirty, perfect angle and smthg everyone wanted to say to DNA at the time but nobody articulated it yet in that way

With Blac and Tech both being from Philly you would think they would be reviewing Raw's battles. He dropped about 2-3 since "Champion" started. They could get alot of buzz thrown to Raw's way.

I know Raw vs Glueazy was being talked about a few months back. Raw would kill that dude on a URL stage. No reason Raw can't be at the level of a Steams on URL. His style is tailor fit for that stage. Especially since they cool with BC again.

nikka WHAT?!?! :picard::gladbron::whoo::damn::banderas::wow:

I'm not even worried about the believably factor of those lines, once you start to visualize that sequence it's just vulgar

The might have to put Frozenberg in one of the Leprechaun flicks or something

Rosenberg isn't out here trying to make connections like a lot of these other battlers are. He comes across pretty standoffish on screen, and I don't see or hear of him doing promo for his upcoming battles either. I'm guessing he's happier staying away from all of the politics. He still needs to promote himself better though.

Steams is in a terrible position at URL, not sure what you mean. He went from Danny Myers to Diesel 9-10 months later. And he hasn't been battling on other leagues like that either. He's just stuck.

I don't think the world needs 10-12 minutes of Rosenberg Raw at a time. 2:30 rounds at the max, and for URL 2:30 is like the minimum.

Steams had a nice lil run last year. And unlike Prez and Chess his stock didn't fall. I agree the Diesel MU is lame but he's still in a nice position to where he can ask for mu's. He's the one that called out Danny Myers and they gave it to him. I can see him go a BL run next year. Especially since Chess has completely dropped out of demand to the fans.

So smack already cut the check for Hitman/Roc?

Black and tech wouldn't dedicate a whole clip hyping it up like this for no reason



Might be the first time Roc clearly loses on the big stage. Hitman not gonna play with him :wow:

Then again were more then a year out and were already 1-1 going into the 3rd :wow:
