This shyt is trash. How long before Ars have to become a full time battler again? IMO Ars make some of the worse music out of all the battle rappers. Verb, Math, Ice, and B Dot make the best music. I also like some of Cortez, Daylyt and Lux music
His beat selection flames tho. I can honestly say every snippet before his battles be bangers...at least the beat

Gun Titles’ bars and schemes for NWX in the rematch are actually really well written. The crowd wasn’t catching it in the building. If Surf wasn’t stumbling, they practiced more AND they didn’t say Area 59, I would edge them the battle. NWX’s formula was to just copy Gun Titles in part 1.

I dunno, bro. I feel like he finally got better at doing music and picking the right beats. I just think this whole name dropping and going viral from whatever is going commercially thing he does, ain't working. I like it when he just does shyt like this for real...


"Vibes" might be his best project so far.

I’m curious why Jayblac doesn’t put Champion out as a podcast. It’s obvious it takes hours to create that content with a guest. He can continue putting out episodes, and release a long podcast episode without chopping it up.
Then he can charge tickets to live podcast/episode recordings in venues :wow:

I think his endgame is to sell out to Complex though.

How do you rap for so long, have "The Rapper" as part of your name, and still not have a single body of work together?

For battle rap?

Nah.

Now imagine if he did a "Champion" style show on mainstream hiphop? He would definitely get major attention from a platform like Complex. However, I don't think he's interested enough in today's music to ever really do that.

Nyggas turn to battle rap to get that "feel" thats not in music nowadays.

Facts. Ars is better off just doing his own original shyt. Him trying to cash in on this Drake/Pusha beef feels very Daylyt-ish :scust:

Nyggas will not pay to see this nygga talk about battle rap.

Now mainstream rap? Possibly but like I said I don’t think he has the interest. Obviously there some artist he likes but as a whole?
