I mean. Tbz can set up a podcast a week real easy. One hour planning and prep and one hour for the show.
Just need 3 people consistently on. I could set it up, but nikkas be flaking.

Queenzflip got a Cam interview before Noreaga
It was on IG live but still
Nyggas fukk with QF. He has the type of personality to get interviews that no one else can, that’s why I hope he gets better at his craft. He has a way of being up front without being as political as someone like a Nore.
His interview with AB was good.
Nyggas are comfortable around QF.

Then skip over it nikka
Vaulting the battle is rewarding Chesshow do yall not realize this yet
Those of us that saw the PPV know he shyt the bed. Just release Trez’s rounds ‘cause Chess is fukking up the quality control. The leagues should stop booking him.
I’d be down to join in from time to time but the time zones are a killer. That’s the only reason I never participated when @DEAD7 was doing one.

How important is "winning" when rating battlers to you personally?

I rate battlers primarily off of attributes & ability. Winning is like the third part of my criteria. Performance against elite competition is second. That’s why I don’t really care when a nikka like Posey says “Serius Jones don’t really be losin”

Winning is important after all, so I can't rule it out. But it's not #1 on my list either. Overall i guess when I rate battlers its how entertaining they are to me personally, and how well do they make the best of their strongest attributes to win. BMagic isn't know for performance but in his prime his flow and punches were next level. Roc isn't bar heavy but his aggression and delivery is great to watch and made for great battles.
So overall it comes down to how well they can entertain me.

Winning and your performance in a battle is kinda neck and neck imo
For example, I had Nitty 3-0’d Ave in a FIRE battle
But if I’m comparing Mook beating Lux in pt2 to that
Ave’s loss against Nitty > Mook’s win against Lux because Mook’s performance was just that weak
That’s actually how Surf came up
He took wild L’s out the gate against Yung Ill, DNA & Big T
But his performances during those L’s kept nikkas intrigued.
That’s the problem with these new nikkas.
They think winning alone is just it. Naah..
When Chess lost to DNA he still had that Surf-effect of still bein intriguing.
Since then he just been on a wild decline while losing, except for that win against Saga
At some stage I just gave up on that nikka.
His performances just been too cringeworthy for too long
Brizz overcame his L against Verb and progressed.
T Top had his L against Clips and kept progressing.
Chess just fell off..
Can't listen to Black Compass anymore.
Tony Bro said the face of NY battle rap was Mike P. He also said that he loved white people on another show. Can't listen to this Buffalo Oreo Bamma talk about street battling anymore.[/QUOTE
I’m from Buffalo. That nikka do not represent us. We have a lot of pro Black and street people in Buffalo. Besides,
He’s from Rochester, not Buffalo.
But seriously, Tony always had a c00n vibe. He seem like the type of dude that only dates white women. But all of AFR was c00ning at times. Caps and Wing use OD c00n at times.
Wavy really got Twork up outta there :

Damn Wavy was really dancing on NJT
fukk it. I'm saying it:
WAVY GOTTA SEE GERALD.
@A.R.$ my bad, Rochester not Buffalo.
I know this isn’t a Mount Rushmore discussion.
My mount rush is Mook, Lux, & Hollow. These guys are winners. The fourth spot is vacant. When they choose to battle, it’s a big event and they don’t really go around losing like that.
All these other guys go around losing battles which is why i can’t give anyone that fourth spot.
In the grand scheme of things I just want to be entertained. I don’t care too much of the outcome like others on here. But when looking at a Mount Rushmore, I just can’t put a guy that goes around losing battles. Verb would be a great candidate if he wasn’t a loser.
For what I look for in a Mount Rushmore, I would have to consider someone like a Conceited. High status, if he battled again it would be huge, selective how he chooses battles, etc. The only thing that holds him back is that I don’t think he’s good enough. If I thought he was a better battler, he’d have my 4th spot. As I type that though, I realize I don’t think much of Mook either. If Mook and Con battled head to head right now it’s a toss up imo.

I have Conceited on my Mt. Rushmore higher than Hollow just off of his influence, because Con's definitely not better than Hollow. As one of the first guys building his name off of only creative punches, Con paved the way for a lot of these punchers. He became one of the staple names associated with battle rap and is like top 3 in average views for any battler.
Con, Mook, Hollow, and Lux is my Mt. Rushmore as well. Not my top 4 though
