300 murders a year
There is nothing wrong with it, if you just want to battle. But if you want to battle the top tier/money battles like a Lux or Hitman etc, then it becomes an issue. Especially with how Rum/JC do it. They take any and everyone that's put in front of them. Hell the number of battles probably wouldnt even that big of an issue if Rum/JC/DNA were bigger draws. There is a reason why Lux is chasing hitman, Lux would chase hitman even if he just got 30'd, because Hitman would still be a draw. Hitman said him and ARP turned down the Lux battle before because he had another battle scheduled like a month beforehand and they didnt know who it would be again. They also want like a 2 month grace period before the battle to promot.

Are there many highly marketable battelers that battle 6-8x a year that you consider a draw as well? Legit question Im a casual. :hubie:
Seems like you would be able to count them on one hand. :jbhmm:
Math ain't mathin breh

I can bet you over the past 5 years guys like geechi nitty jc and Danny have made more money from battle rap overall than lux has. You can sit do 1 battle and make 75k every 2-3 years, or battle 10 times a year at 15k a pop and make 150k annually. I would take the latter.

What makes you think Danny getting 15k a battle? IIRC it came out he was getting like 3500 for the Trenches card :jbhmm:
I doubt JC getting that a battle as well. Part of the reason they battling so often is because they prices so friendly :manny:

I was happy when I saw this announced, thinking finally URL going to have an event to really push these new guys. Then I see the names and its the new guys versus the even newer guys.
Hopefully they will at least have this on Caffeine.
