URL is more popular here than Don’t Flop. The casual battle rap fan knows who Loaded Lux, Hollow and Arsonal are and can’t name one person from Don’t Flop’s roster.

I’m sure the Geechi/Nitty battle isn’t actually in the building. If I heard correctly in the trailer, they’re going to be live-streamed from elsewhere doing the battle in a Banned type setting. Which makes sense because there’s no way Geechi’s getting into the country :russ:

I’m sure this battle was made to soften the blow for when they announce that TODD “couldn’t make it”

I don't know any brehs that fukk with battle rap like that ya know . The Hollow/Pat Stay crowd was hype but I think most of the man dem came out there because a guy like Bonkaz was on the card...

but let's see though innit.

Robin's average as a battle rapper, but she's thick asf. Love to see her and casey jay vs looney and phara battle... In a ring Naked Oil Wrestling.... myverse be the ref.

Correction :mjlol:

Also lol not surprised she average as a battler but damn she a baddie.

Damn, we just forgetting about JC...


I guess:yeshrug:

I think JC has a couple debatables, while Shine is killing everyone he faces. They both cemented themselves as legends this year, but I think what Shine is doing is more remarkable.

Geechi
Shine
JC
Iron Solomon
Aye Verb

I think that's my COTY ranking for now, feel free to shyt on it

I definitely would have hollered at Robin Rhymes when I was fresh out of college, happy to have money in pocket & proudly taking chicks to Applebee's.

JC had better competition than Shine and Geechi. If JC beat Geechi clear, there would be zero question IMO. I still feel like he won, especially the more I watch it. Material was way better. Geechi got dealt with by A Ward of all people. Worst loss of the three if you say Geechi beat JC. Shine had a great year, but who did he beat that mattered besides YK?

I respect that, if it's not clear cut then we should get everyone's opinions on this. We don't have to wait for Champion to do it.

Rank your top 5 for Champion of the Year.

I'm looking at it and I'm starting to feel as if I slighted JC too, but I'll roll with it, I gave JC plenty of love this year lol

There is no Top 5, with 30'd Millz Shine clearly got it. 12-0 this year in rounds and beat almost all of them in their hometowns.

Who did he beat that was good? I can't remember him battling anyone that wasn't a scrub besides YK. I feel like he had worse comp than JC, Geechi and Iron. Please correct me if I'm wrong, going OFF memory.

Geechi got a COTN for battling Tech 9.
