Lol watching Sire Castro on queenzflip.

Why are new nyggas not capable of talking shyt like the old school nyggas? Cassidy, Jae Millz, Sire Castro, etc talk like they are the best nyggas in the world. You don’t hear new nyggas talk this shyt. I can’t even listen to an interview from a new nygga.

These guys were all aspiring rappers who were battling on Harlem & Bronx street corners + at the Fight Klub. The rival crews, the side bets, the cosigns from people in the industry, etc. It's a different type of environment entirely. They had to impress strangers.

Now these guys are sending in footage to battle leagues, hoping to get a look.

Anybody have the video that Math was talking about? the one with hollow selling t shirts and cheezsing with Diz's boys.

I been a fan hollow fan but

Math stories seems more believable

I remember hollow saying that he would not battle math, until the diz situation was resolved. I think it was on angryfan.

Also he soinds like he read one too many self help books or something. Talking about moving up and elevating, perception.. etc
Hollow just watches a lot of YouTube videos. A lot of Eric Thomas and shyt.

If we wanna break it down all the way, Hollow is essentially a dude who was an addict who cleaned up their habit and believes that means they elevated a level above the folks they hung out with when they were using. :yeshrug:

Thats a round/battle winning angle if executed right.

This is why Cortez dissed Jr Writer


Caps is weak man. He really can't name any good Cortez battles off the top of his head?

I probably would have agreed with JR's perspective about 6 years ago, but you can't really front on Cortez nowadays. I can understand if he isn't your cup of tea, but he ain't trash.

JR has repeatedly said he would never battle, but maybe he would lowkey do it & figures Cortez would be the perfect opponent. This had a promo type of feel. I mean over 30 mins of bashing Cortez?

EDIT

This nygga CAPS asked who would win, Arsonal or Twork? They are talking about a hypothetical battle, as if they didn't even battle last year.:mjlol:

They didn’t spend the whole time shytting on Cortez, did they? :dead:

I listened to the start and stopped after he initially dissed Tez because I figured that was all of the time they spent on him.

Damn near

90% of it was bashing Cortez.

Is Angryfan a drug addict? This nygga can't remember anything. He can't recall any good Cortez battles or lines off the top of his head. When this nygga CAPS asked JR who would win between Ars/NJT if they were to battle, it just shows me CAPS is on something. I think 3 Letterman would have done a better job standing up for battle rap then CAPS did.

even on social media he comes across as one of those motivational dudes, lol one too many self help books,definitely get that vibe, but i also sometimes feel like well he was an addict, so if thats what made you become sober :yeshrug:
