Oh yeah I remember seeing that too ....it's still random as hell for a match up...maybe next year, rt now it's about Verb and obviously Jc for most wanted battles for Lux, unless he say the hell with JC and go straight for Nitty....the main cry is Lux ain't faced another Pen, takin' Verb still ain't good enough for these bars over everything nerds in the comments.

If he wasn't on NOME it's because he didn't want to be. URL been trying to book Shotty for years. They love him over there.

Facts. I remember Norbes was saying how he would be definitely down to book Shotty. Matter of fact, I would go as far and say, Norbes is probably the first person from URL scouting over in the UK from what I recall. And that was what...at this point maybe 4 years ago.

I feel like Black Ice Cartel is what ARP wanted RBE to be on a street level.

Y’all remember when RBE first came out, this nygga ARP was trying to act like they were a street gang?:russ: He’d have multiple nyggas with RBE shirts on looking hard at the camera.

As platforms, there’s no comparison though. Black Ice hasn’t put out an interesting card in years. John Doe is by far one of the most overrated camera guys in battle rap. He never got better, while all these other guys surpassed him.

This muthafukka John Doe has some of the worse angles I’ve ever seen. I will always give him credit for that Dot/Dubby Dub and Danja Zone/Lotta Zay event. That was fire.

They need to make it right with Quantum Physics. He’s like the small league, scum bag version of DNA who is cool with all the small league owners and provides opportunities for his battlers. He’s brought a lot of battlers to black ice.

Something was always missing with Black Ice. I think the whole Gorilla Warfare split hurt both leagues.
