Californ-i-a by way of BK
I think the crowd shyt is 2 fold.
1. Your battlers arent putting in any effort for the most part. They dont sound energetic. They lack performance. I bet you someone like Surf/Ez wouldve livened up the crowd. It's also a 2v2, and most hardcore fans that wouldve made a good crowd probably dont care for 2v2s like that. So that leaves the more casual ppl coming, that's probably there for the main event only. I think the main event was the most active the crowd was that night. Battlers also need to stop bytching at the crowd when they dont get a response.

2. Like with wrestling going to a venue too many times in a short period, they wearing out their crowd with all the ATL events. So if you not bringing some heavy hitters, you not gonna get a good crowd at this point.

Also taking 20 minutes between each battle aint helping the crowds mood either. That's an extra hour+ you putting them through. This is on top of another surprise battle that no one wants to see, so just wasting time. I guess Sheed is who they pushing as the next star? Surprise battle on Nome Impact and Summer Madness or w/e that big card was last year?
While it's true performance plays a role, it has just happened way too many times for it to be the performers at this point. Atlanta crowds are just terrible. I don't know why they are so lackluster in terms of cheering. The crazy part is, they seem to pack the venue but always just come and stare at nikkas. I'm wondering if them showing up is just a social thing and they're not battle rap fans like that. That does happen.

Any time Smack/URL has a bad year it feels like battle rap is at its lowest.

URL needs two crazy events in the next 6 months to salvage this year.

Only way is to reconcile with ez. Have ez vs roc at summer madness. Then set up Christmas for geechi vs ez. Let chrome have ez vs mook… ez is the face of battle rap… they gotta mend that and swallow their pride…. Or remy gonna be on that ass and team up with rbe and start taking smack down along with their artist abandoning smack..

Smack is the wwf of this battle rap shyt. I need smack to hold it up. Watching his artist start moving over to rbe or chrome is like trying to watch wcw. It just ain’t got the same feel no matter what. Hope he makes these adjustments and realize he in trouble.

Looks like I didn’t miss anything by skipping this URL event. Full 2 on 2 event cards should be banned.

:unimpressed:
no bullshyt the only thing i'd for sure say you missed was Rum/Twork's first round had the showmanship and electricity of a Hitman first round

event was buns but Twork/Rum exceeded expectations. Honorable mention to Castro/Wess, DNA/JJDD, and T-Top/Swamp. bunch of asskickings was dealt out

Watching the Chris Unbias BattleRap documentary. So B Magic doesnt/didnt fukk with URL like that because Beasley bald headed ass was talking extra greasy online about him? Calling him a bum and saying he was scared to battle? :ohhh:

Not only would it be stupid, but Lux actually cared to. He'd probably ether Tay Roc even harder than that Mook 3rd round.
Just Another Lost nikka 2023:wow:

The bombs he would drop on him:picard:

EDIT: Watched 3 NOME Impact battles so far. It's more the crowd than the teams. These performaces aren't terrible, though not classic 2 on 2 material. DNA and TODD fukked them rookies up BAD :mjlol:
