Brizz a few days ago said URL called him for K-Shine for Summer Madness, but then the next day Shine and Smack got into it on Twitter.

This makes sense. Trying to put Shine in a big battle to try to justify somehow giving him a little more money to satisfy him.

ARP just said that he had to add an 11th match. Supposed to be 2 legends in this battle, one of which is a Mount Rushmore type of battler. He also said PPV price goes up tomorrow. Cop the PPV now.

11 battles sounds like over kill for a one day event, but I like the competitive spirit from these leagues to outdo each other.

The streets looking so much better now that Smack isn’t the only one putting food out on the streets. This is what you can have without battles getting blocked. URL knows they can’t sustain these long exclusive contracts going forward. Also, locking battlers in the app with no YouTube exposure is coming back to haunt them. Niccas are only gonna take so much (unless you are Tay Roc).

Gotta salute ARP for not folding when Beasley was lobbing lawsuit grenades at him. If he didn’t stand his ground, the landscape could be looking very spooky right now. Battle rap is making a comeback because of this. That’s why we gotta support at this moment, because it’s a crucial time.

Agreed.
Like I said back in March :sas1:
Monopolization hurts the consumer,
but financial illiteracy is rampant in Battlerap

This is EXACTLY why nikkas slandering other leagues are STUPID.

Monopolizing the market is NEVER good for the consumer (them), but nikkas are too financially illiterate and obsessed with tribalism to understand that (which URL knows very well) so :manny:
