Can we be honest about Clips for a minute? I'm catching up on AngryFan and everyone pretty much agrees his half hearted delivery was ass vs. Top and enough to edge Top if you don't like schemes. (For the records I had Clips 3-0)

I'm tired of everyone saying "Clips is the GOAT if he...." blah blah blah etc.

Don't you get it by now? Lazy Clips is Clips. He has 5-7 losses on his jacket in the year of 2014 alone. He doesn't give a fukk, so why are you defending him for having one good battle per year? We keep defending this guy behind this "100 Clips" thing anymore.

You don't get to be in Mook/Lux/Hollow category and willingly lose 80% of the time. If that's the case then I guess T Mac is better than Kobe.


Wait hold up.....i agree with everything you said about Clips, but you gave Clips the 2nd vs Top after watching the footage??

The way Surf and Hitman talk about "views" like its album sales is funny to me...

It's is funny... but at this point they're famous enough to get recognized walking down any random street now. Life has to be much different for them now. Not so much the battle rap money, but the connections, hotter broads, getting love everywhere you go, being recognized by "A list" hip-hop related celebs, etc etc.
That's why these guys still look at Mook as the top guy. They don't want to battle him because they think he's the best battler, they want to take him down because they know he's the most famous battler. Rich nyggas bring Mook into their VIP section at the club and let him drink for free. They want to rub elbows with stars.
I'm not disputing that it sounds cheesy, but this is the world we live in now, views pretty much are akin to album sales (of course not anything close to a 1 to 1 basis, but still).
 

Mook

We should all strive to be like Mr. Rogers.

People keep saying Top won that 2nd... I'm going to have to re-watch the rounds backwards to see if it changes how I feel.

That's too much posturing for me bro. To me, it's like alright atleast save some money. When I see people living the high life, I know that it's because they're living beyond their means. That's not something I aspire to do, that's actually some chump shyt.

Like you said "not so much the battle rap money"... ok, conversation should stop there.

If the money's not there, then the lifestyle shouldn't be. These dudes aren't gonna be able to keep up. But that's on them.

"getting love everywhere you go" don't pay the bills. That's some here today gone tomorrow shyt. Some child actor "oh what I was supposed to be saving" type shyt. I have no respect for that. That being said, these dudes will continue to make youtubes and you'll continue to watch em, cuz you got nothing better to do.
