I like what Remy is doing, but she lost me on this new one. PPV is 40 for 4 battles. The card the day before of lesser known battlers is SEPARATE, though it's only 15. The day 1 card is a lot of battles, but you know there will be a good amount of bad bars, chokes and probably a few flat out wack people, so IDK. I'll wait for the YT drops. If it was 40 for both, I might have said fukk it, but it feels like a chance to get beat. Hustle/Viixen will probably be great, but I'm not paying 40 for 4 battles, including a name or two I have zero interest in seeing.

Shotty Horroh says he retires :jbhmm:






He started out with some cool music but he pulled an MGK and tried to crossover from hip hop/rap to rock. I’ve enjoyed how he put on for the UK in terms of battle rap and even got some folks in the US to recognize him. But tbh, these white artists gotta stop doing that “hey I’m gonna rap” then the “oh hey I’m gonna be a rock artist” shyt. It’s formulaic and boring.

The first card should be free. Only card that she should charge is the one with more interest. She got to make her money back somehow.

That's what sponsors and partners are for. Not to mention the door and bar. No combo or getting both for one price looks iffy to me. This card isn't nearly as compelling as the last one. 40 is NOT a small price for this card. Early bird on a Max Out is around that. I hope Remy is willing to adjust and doesn't just bail if this one is an L. I can't see too many people throwing 40 away on a 4 battle card that isn't an all star lineup.

Knew something was wrong when he was the one to lowkey setup Midnight Madness & didn’t attend the Bowling/1st event 🤦🏾‍♂️🤢
