What is "the big stage" in 2023?

Is standing on a stage with Smack without a guaranteed YT drop a bigger deal than battling Mook on PPV in a room with a subsequent YT drop?

The big stage is essentially the spotlight, whether it’s in a big building or on a big card.

The phrase of your question is funny and kind of implies a shot at the URL, but Ill Will was just recently on PSA podcast talking about how much he missed the URL and the atmosphere. Just a bunch of crying. If he was truly satisfied with the RBE YouTube drops he wouldn’t have done all that whining.

You are right, if he can show consistency, professionalism, and remain exclusive to RBE for at least 3 battles, I believe RBE would evaluate working him in the rotation and providing bigger opportunities. Right now, he’s just a stepping stone for RBE talent that typically goes nowhere.

And why is that an issue? Nitty needs to have every infinity stone to be considered great?
Yeah if we're judging him by categories. If he only good at one skill, he can't be great. A great battle rapper is someone like Lux who is good at 3, maybe 4 categories.

Nitty is a great battle rapper, but he is by no means a great rapper. There's a big difference between the two.

That's exactly my point, there is nothing wrong with Nitty being great even if he is one dimensional. The post on reddit is ridiculous in my opinion but I understand why the fan needed to post it.
