Recycling in battles most people will never watch :yeshrug:
Who cares as long as it's fiya when I hear it idc
Recycling is one of those things that’s bad to do, and I can’t condone it but I can’t say I really care. Usually these guys recycle in battles that I never saw or ever will see like you said. So it’s wrong because the league is paying you for fresh material, but I can’t say I care as a fan because more than likely I only heard it once.

I don't know how many battles Twork has done this year but he should be getting enough from URL to cut that number in half at least. Better for his brand.

How is it a problem
Them small room joints don't matter and people not watching them
The reason he recycling cuz those are good bars going to waste people will never hear

There are plenty of battle rappers in the past that we’ve discredited for taking these small league battles and none of them were recycling like this. NJT is getting a lot of grace in this situation.

You're encouraging bad business. Leagues pay these nikkas racks for 9 minutes of NEW material. If you're a league owner and you give this guy 3k (no deposit I hope :mjpls:), and he doesn't get you the anticipated views because the bars are on something else, maybe a bigger league with more eyes on it, do you feel the same?

Yeah okay. If it was your bread, you would feel different.
no i wouldnt
the battles i've seen the recycling aint affecting the smaller leagues
its not effecting their views or their event
people exposing the recycling probably giving the league more light
