I’d think Hollow since there’s been rumor that Hollow and ARP have negotiated before. Never heard of Calicoe being on RBE

Ehhhh its a big deal just cause it Mook but when will these other leagues learn? If It's TOO MUCH for URL it's def too much for yall. RBE actually does good matchups. They gonna go broke booking Mook for a lackluster battle.


But it is what it is. I would be cool with seeing him vs T-Top. I know that's who he was supposed to be battle on URL. I know it's not surf.

Not sure if that's necessarily true. Every other league that's thrown money at these big battlers for big events (Even UW with Lux and Hollow) weren't as established as RBE is now. I don't think ARP would risk the future of his entire league for the prospects of a Mook battle, especially when they've already been on a pretty hot streak. With these other events I always felt like they weren't real leagues just guys with money that tried to cash out on the battle rap craze. I think this is a calculated risk and ARP knows he might not make the money back, but I don't think he'd do it if it would financially set them back for good.

I hope u right. Like i said RBE does really good cards. I would hate for this to set them back in any type of way.

So my bro just told me it's Mook vs. Aye Verb

RBE is big on relationships, therefore, when I was thinking about the circle of guys they fukk with, this battle actually crossed my mind.

Vegan Verb can beat Mook. I just think Mooks battle rap bars are elementary. I tried to rewatch that Mook/lux 2 and his bars were just so elementary.

nikkas hating hard smh



Roc also battled on QOTR.

But we know nikkas charge off brand leagues much less then they charge SMACK. Hell Shine/Dna out right admitted this when they were doing there 2v2 tour. Also DF booked Hitman/Verb for a 2v2. You know that was way under what they charged SMACK for Double Impact 2.


With that said i don't think it's wrong to charge URL more especially if you gonna bring in the views. The problem is charging a "off brand" league 2k and trying to get 7-8 from URL. The jump is just too ridiculous.
