:troll:aiight..aiight...something did just hit me...the reason why these "retired" rappers/battlers don't fit in this ratchet setting is because the battle community is like a big ass family who has dirt on each other....Em really has no material to match with this Full House....it's like you and your clique crackin' jokes and one of em has a new friend that just showed up in the circle the day before and he tries to say somethin' funny and everyone is like :comeon:
i dont see the lack of personals bein a big issue tho, people wouldn't front on em if he just spat some fire bars :manny: i think the old nikkas just see other battlers using personals and feel pressured to try to "talk" to their first opponent,when in reality they dont have to

Em in the ring.. He's already got plenty of bars that are worthy of Charlies reach files.

The concept that those removed from battle rap cant just jump back in continues to be proven though.

That's why nikkas gotta respect B Magic, son always comes with BARS

He doesn't clique up or duck anyone either

If EM raps like he did on Rap God, he could hang IMO
He literally said nothing in Rap God that would work in a rap battle. His flow was crazy and he had nice multis but none of that would be effective in a modern day rap battle format outside of KOTD and Don't Flop. Those weren't good bars.

If he said them bars on URL, UW he'd get murdered.

With Eminem, people are basing this off what he USED to be and over the years people have just been accustomed to saying Eminem is a great lyricist, they don't actually back it up with dope lines. I'm not saying Eminem isn't talented enough because if he went back to his old style he could definitely do damage. But Eminem, in 2014, if he raps how he's been rapping over the last decade, he'd get demolished.

Eminem's current style kills is cyphers not battles

Interesting how battle rappers are ass on beats, and mainstream artist are ass without the beat...

Either these niqqas are gonna have to stay in their lanes or we are gonna have to start cutting some slack one way or the other.

Thats not a good thing. The fact that you HAVE to change the way you rap on URL is terrible, which is why we got that garbage between Rex and Dizaster because Diz felt he HAD to change his style.
