Essential The Official Battle Rap Random Thoughts Thread (URL, KOTD, UW etc...)

[theflyest]

The two Nome trailers so far, are shot the same & the faceoffs are in the same room....I highly doubt that it'd be one room for faceoffs for 2 separate events altogether.

Lol your conclusion doesn’t make any sense. They did the face offs on the same day out of convenience. These battles were announced early to generate excitement for 2019. The URL used their time in Orlando to get as much content as possible (smack volume 3, banned battles, faceoffs for future battles).

Goodz/Cass was not announced as a Nome battle, nor would it make sense to have it on the same card as Verb/Lux.

Cass/Goodz is a SM headliner type of battle, URL aint bouta make some supercard and have their other cards be extra normal


Both of these big name battles should land around 3rd-4th on the night so the crowd doesnt end up being an issue, no gas and no exhaustion....this is the only thing URL might fukk up on

To your point, they did the faceoffs for NOME 5 and Rookies vs Vets at the same time.

AYE VERB CONTINUES TO FIGHT FOR A PLACE OF MT. RUSHMORE; BATTLES ICON LUX IN 2019

Harlem battle rap legend Loaded Lux is set to make his long-awaited return to SMACK / URL next year, with a NOME 9 appearance battling against St Louis’ Aye Verb in Houston, Texas.

Without a doubt, one of the greatest battle rappers of all-time, news of the return of Loaded Lux to the world’s biggest battle rap stage in URL has sent battle rap fans in a frenzy and looks to set up 2019 as the biggest year for battle rap yet. Facing a formidable opponent in Aye Verb (who most recently took it all the way and then some with Murda Mook on RBE earlier this year), this is the battle that fans have been requesting ever since then. The announcement yesterday on Christmas Day was the greatest present that owner Beasley could have gifted fans.

This is just one more battle that URL has lined up, that has fans trembling with joy. The other announced battle that is on deck is Goodz vs. Cassidy. Goodz is one of the most formidable emcees in the culture and Cassidy… well everyone knows about the Philly vet.

Coming up battling for years off-camera throughout New York before making his on-camera debut, Loaded Lux has previously battled in the SMACK/URL DVD era against Midwest Miles (aka Young Miles in 2006), and most famously against Murda Mook over eight rounds back in November 2003 in the Bronx. Lux then went on to battle half a dozen times on the now defunct 106 & Park on BET in 2009. In the most modern era post-SMACK DVD on URLTV, Lux headlined Summer Madness 2 vs. a young Calicoe in a classic and battled a very tough Charlie Clips on a heated Summer Madness 5 three years later in 2015. Lux has also had a classic vs. Hollow Da Don on UW (2014), rematched with Murda Mook on Eminem’s Total Slaughter in 2014 before most recently battling Arsonal Da Rebel on UW mid last year for Arsonal’s then supposed retirement battle.

Verb will be no easy opponent by any stretch of the imagination for Lux. The experienced Verb has had near 50 battles on camera over the last decade since the Grind Time era on multiple platforms. He has stood on that stage and like Lux also faced off against Charlie Clips, Hollow Da Don, Arsonal, T-Rex, Midwest Miles (twice) and of course most recently with Murda Mook in a performance which really made its own case for him to now face Lux. Aye Verb’s complete battle resume is one of the most impressive overall, having also battled the likes of K-Shine, Math Hoffa, O-Red, Pat Stay, Hitman Holla, Dizaster, Tsu Surf, Cortez, Goodz amongst dozens of others.

This battle has been long in the making for seven-plus years already, and Verb’s recent strong showing vs. Mook coupled with strong fan support for this battle to go down now means the time is now finally right for Lux to greenlight it. The battle means a lot to both, a Lux win will really see him cement his place at the top end of battle rap table while a win for Aye Verb would really rattle the battle rap Mount Rushmore. Stay tuned to The Source for news as the lead-up to this monumental battle.

I think it might be time for Saga vs B Dot

Saga is on a killing spree

B Dot might be the king of content, but he's still struggling to find his delivery

B Dot has earned a NOME right?

Why not put him on the same card as beloved?

Would he be scared of taking that battle in such a churchy azz place?

So we gonna pretend like Verb hasnt been ass the last couple years. Choking left and right, taking L's from Jimz and Pat Stay, getting bodied bad on a main stage by K shine?

 

[MJ Truth]

He probably had it before, but this year plus this Lux battle essentially solidifies Verb has the GOAT resume, right?

This year he battled the white GOAT Pat Stay, the biggest legend Mook, and the young lion Twork. Add in the GOAT next year and is there anyone else in the conversation? Is Tay Roc the only top flight battler Verb hasn't battled (that would be reasonable for him, taking Ill out of it)?

I'm with you on this, I'm not sure where the Verb love is coming from. Yeah, he beat Mook (and it does mean something, I didn't even think he'd get through all of his rounds), but let's be real here... he had a lightweight debatable 2-1 win against a Mook who didn't spit one. hot. bar.

Let’s put it all on the table

Last time JC pissed Lux off we got Hot97 #Freestyle075

Verb hasn’t spit ANYTHING close to that on or off wax over the last 5 years..

They’re having 3min rounds, that tells us how scared Verb is behind all the wolftickets he been selling.
Lux would never do 3min rounds with Verb given their history.

At their peak they were my #1 and #2, but it’s about to get VERY DARK for Verb, let’s REAL here
I’m saving files on everybody picking Verb to win this battle

All First Verse

 

[Momentum]

Verb never tries vs. white rappers. I don't understand why ya'll haven't figured this out yet. He doesn't respect them more than getting the check.

Verb is the GOAT right now, he's ahead of Rex unless Rex has a random comeback year.
