Still fux with this show.

I like the fact they potentially set up DeeVee with an arc to go back and win the battle at the New Music Seminar :jbhmm:

Caught some Nas vibes off the first kid that rhymed for Barry. The shock 'knocking MC's out like Mike Tyson did Givens' bar, The "Rhyme after rhyme, I'm flowing without a flaw/ and keep it going andgoing without a pause" is the same flow as 'The President's Wife' line from Live At The BBQ (No Rhyme King:dame:) and the QB shoutout. :ohhh: -

I LOVE that attention to detail

@dora_da_destroyer - You saw it too, right?

I also liked the fact they brought back the militant MC from the battle in the pilot for the audition too. Little things like that give the sense that a real 'scene' exists in the show.

Ahm out here whylin :damn:

Brought a personalized :birdman:gram to Nikki's door:whoa:

That kid was definitely Nas.....i mean he had a chipped tooth and said he was from Queensbridge :russ:

Aight....gotta say it, that big fat nikka with the fro is WACK. Who's idea was it to cast him as a rapper?
Lol his name is Afro and he a real rapper. I think that's how he got the part.

With that said, I actually don't mind his character too much because he is kinda lame and a mess up but that's kind of the point. A few rappers from that time period probably were but when they rapped then you could see their true talent and why they were a star lol.

Ahm out here doing good deeds and disappearing on chicks like Batman :birdman: If he smiles for the first time when the kid says his name :mjcry:

Wee Bey might be about to go full McNulty on him though :ohhh:

David got clapped:wow: - Hip-Hop Police is about to form like Voltron all over Barry's ass because a White kid was killed :damn: The media rolling up on Juggy looking for that grief hot take, in next week's preview too :whoo:

T.I. in the cut as the loquacious and charismatic advocate, Clifford J. Cochran :tipleon: . That's some great casting :mjlol:
