:whoa: hold on...i know i know, it seems like who cares BUT i wanna know something...
will this be the first time that a league has actually sued a battle rapper? i know ARP said he was gonna sue Qleen but i heard they cleaned that up behind the scenes. plus ARP, as stand as a dude he appears to be, he is not explaining really why Daylyt is off the card. these blogs are weird but doesn't that seem odd to you? even for Daylyt's trolling ass, because he always shows up on the RBE platform.

I hope Daylyt gets sue, and I hope ARP wins and Daylyt as to pay out the ass for his fukkery. If that's what it takes to ensure that this type of fukkery doesn't happen again then so be it

I don't think he's going to sue Day, I think it's deeper than that. Streets are saying Quill is about to get a passport stamp here pretty soon.

Understandable :ehh:



Who did Diz take with him when he said fukk KOTD? Outside of of the grapes

I just said it.

The "freshcoast." Illmac, Thesaurus, etc. It's no coincidence these guys stopped battling on KOTD. You really have to respect how they have each other's backs. Let's not forget Diz is cool with all of the "street" battlers as well.

Facts. I think if anything, KOTD needs to mend whatever ties they got with the Fresh Coast. Because right now, URL West is truly on the come up and I have been rooting for that shyt for years. But KOTD was smart to link with them early on. However, if they get shyt straight with Diz, then its a good look overall. I honestly don't want to see Diz on URL at this point; after the Tay Roc battle, I was like nah fam...even with that 1st round being decent, I don't think its gonna work.

And it might be more than just with Diz. I dunno about Lush but I think with Avo doing his RYD shyt, KOTD wasn't too happy about it and top of it off, Avo is taping SMACK URL events and handling their PPV streams. I hope Avo says fukk it goes all out with RYD since he has the skills and the know how to edit these battles and give a good product.

Diz brought Avocado to the URL. He insisted Avo do that Traffic event, because he understands how important presentation is. The URL liked him, and keeps hiring him.

Avocado doesn't need KOTD. The bunker was all his. I'm sure if he really wanted to, he could do his own events. However, I think between the URL, RYD, and his day job, he has no desire to put together events. His main motivation for creating the bunker was to have a small room environment. With URL doing that now, he doesn't really need to. In fact, he was hoping the URL would go down this path. The interview is out there, before he even started doing their events.

We may see the occasional event here & there on RYD. He has diverse taste, so you may see an occasional battle that would not air on the URL anyway.

Ah I didn't know that Diz was cool with Illmac and Thesaurus, I thought that they didn't like each other

Illmac is part of that Left Side Connection. Diz felt KOTD was mistreating Thesaurus last year and voiced his opinion about it. It's not just those two though, I'm talking about the whole Fresh Coast. You just don't see those guys with KOTD this year.

Nah, they're all cool with each other. Matter of fact, Thesaurus and Illmac recapped their own classic and broke it down like they always were the homies they have been on RYD.

Yep. And tbh, KOTD is missing out on getting more of the Fresh Coast more battles. They got Madeflex (even though he just battled Xcel on MASS4 but still), Reverse Live, Carter Deems (lol), Rahney, and a few others. Hell, youngin who battled Geechi Gotti...Saynt...how the fukk they didn't get him some more looks? Im glad Gully gave him a look in Detroit in the GZs but still.

Yep. Remember, I always said Avo was one of the reason I rocked with KOTD. But yeah, the Bunker was a perfect idea. I feel like he may have needed more help with it aside from him and J-Pro (where the fukk is that guy) putting it together.

And yeah, I do recall Diz being like Avo may have gotten jerked by KOTD when it came time for them to cut the check as well. However, that interview you speak of, maybe its an AFM interview from a loooong time ago, he was definitely breaking down a lot of what he knew about battle rap and what he was looking forward to. For SMACK URL to link with him like that surprised me because I thought Twizz had some quality for them but who knows, Twizz might have wanted more.

Thesaurus just battled E Ness at Massacre 4 tho, so he's still on their platform

in retrospect verbs rounds vs x factor were nothing but truth "you say the most creative gay shyt" but yeah he still lost but x factor wasnt really saying anything crazy to verb he just pointed out the obvious and verb did the blindfold bullshyt

math and rex, to me i cant really decide the first two rounds, toss ups either way, i normally find math funny but i didnt think he was funny the shyt about rex being a thief and shyt was eh but the 3rd bodied rex so bad so either way math won
always barely edged math vs verb but its close, classic battle imo

dont care too much about day off rbe card but i think day/los was prob a better matchup than head ice but surf not being on sm vs iron, that card just dropped off so much by it being jc even if it ends up being a better battle, i wouldnt have even minded if surf was ill prepared and got bodied cause i think iron wouldve done it in such a way it wouldve actually hurt surf like when mickey bodied daylyt
