Jimz made the point that battle rap should have paid attention to. No repercussions for no shows and all this shyt isn't a good look. I'm not for the violence but another reason why shyt like a battle rap union, commission, or whatever should be formed. Because now, we have a situation where a battler could fukk up an event over this shyt with Qleen no showing.

Cortez didn't even elaborate much to give me a reason that Diz had him blackballed from the movie. He literally said he was in LA to battle Bigg K and he didn't get a call while they were filming. Why is he entitled to a call? Then he said he got a call towards the end and the money wasn't there.

I'm curious how much influence Dizaster actually had with this movie for guys to feel Diz shut them out.

Forgot to respond to this. Its a fair point but I think overall, if you look at it, Diz and Cor kinda, not completely, came up in the whole KOTD/GT phase. And they have known each other for years so, given they may have had some problems in the forefront of their battles, there might have been some low key comrade between them. That's just my speculation. I am wondering the reason as well myself because it seems like almost everyone was in that movie thats at the forefront of battle rap and Cor is one of those folks (no matter how much the fans and leagues try to play him).

Man I know ya'll don't like him but battle truth has been talking that shyt lately. URL's reluctance to be diverse bit them in the ass. KOTD is always expanding but URL can't book dudes outside of Bronx and Brooklyn unless they are in Cave Gang/NWX or under a Beasley contract.

How the fukk do you sign Dizaster to a three battle deal and don't get the Solomon or Oxxy battles?

Street battlers/leagues are just letting this guy become the face of battle rap and no one else is working to push forward into those markets.

Nygga please

It's just an angle for Battle Truth to attack the URL like he always does. The guy is talking about diversity, but he only watches street battles. What type of sense does that even make?

We (as black people) don't NEED to accommodate anybody. All it would do is fukk up the product when you starting catering to white people and everyone else. Yall need to get off that way of thinking that you need to please the massa.

Oxxxymiron on the URL makes NO sense.

You have no idea if the URL and Solomon have had any discussions at all. I think Solomon is simply a better fit at KOTD and I believe he's self aware enough to realize that as well.

He dogged Charron when he had that U DUBB battle with Tay Roc and went on a rant about battlers who have a non street-style present their material.

They’re watching Lux and Hollow with JayBlac


My girl and I made it a tradition to watch these together when we can so she can learn about battle rap. With Blac on we currently FaceTiming watching it especially since this is her first time watching the battle.

They got Ness and Minnesota Luke on later, these things are really dope. K/Iron/Marv was a classic

He ain't check into his hotel. I knew as soon as Jimz and everybody was talking about how it'd be street shyt if he noshowed, Qleen was gonna do something like this. He's too hardheaded for his own good, he heard dudes say "Oh it'll be beef if he noshows" and only heard "Oh itll be beef".

Im not excusing Qleen no showing, but why would you do that? They provoked that shyt. Qleen probably had intentions to make it to the battle smh.

Hitman's views on the URL are no joke. These views with K-Shine are great. K-Shine on the URL is definitely a respectable draw, as it takes two, but if this Hitman/K-Shine passes this Hollow/Roc the way I think it will, despite being the inferior battle, Hitman be should making equal, or even more than Hollow.

He presents himself as an anti URL guy, which I suspect he does for views, but maybe he really believes what he says.

URL has tried some different things, like Charron on URL, giving Uno Lavoz a shot, Pass a shot, URL PG's in London, etc, but some things just don't work.

Jimz need to Calm Down..

All these dudes claim they're from the Streets..
But how many times do you front a nikka some work before you realize you not getting a return on your investment?

I learned that at an Early Age.
Qleen somewhere laughing and that deposit is gone.

I've seen it in real life happen 10000 times.. And We have seen it happen with Qleen 1 too many times..

Jimz should have had a backup opponent and at least had a 1 rounder ready just in case.

It comes to a point where im not mad at Qleen..

I hope ARP got a backup plan but if not.. Oh well..
He gone make a Blog in a Tight Shirt with 20 TV's in The back addressing Qleen,sounding like a weirdo probably lol..

Jimz not fukking up a URL Event.. He might do it outside but as soon as they see him at the door,he not getting in.

I hate this run to Social Media and make threats talk... It makes me not believe none of this street shyt they talk about.

I guess im just Old School...

And if Jimz really wanted to fight Qleen.. Go to Detriot or Chicago.. But that wont happen...

So handle it when you seem him and relax..

Yeah, and I can admit I slept on that because they have seen the bigger picture on how they can expand. But shyt doesn't work for them, it just doesn't work.
