I know it's just a trailer, but Tay Roc looked so much more comfortable working that ring than C3.

I know most of ya'll didn't watch it, but Rone spit some very questionable Native American bars in the chain match vs. Illmac. Daylyt and Illmac tweeting back and forth on some "let's ride out on em" shyt.



By the way, the battle, in my honest opinion, was trash.

Tweets not working

Now I gotta justify my pre existing Rone hatred by actually watching a full battle of his :beli:

That's unfortunate that the battle was trash. Illmac is a dope rapper, but his battles are hit and miss. And Rone is one of those rappers that is just too white for me. Dude has humor, charisma, a top shelf pen, and well thought out angles, but it just doesn't entertain me. It's the stereotypically rich white guy voice & stereotypically rich white guy presentation that I can't connect with.
I think Mike P is shaping up to the more urban version of Rone.

Saga is an easy battle for B Dot, the angle is quite clear to take..

lets see him battle a JC or Chilla..whats he gonna say about them that hasn't been driven into the ground?
That's what nyggas is not understanding tho, if you peep any of breh interviews. He doesnt give a fukk about proving he can just out rap, scream, or gun bar a nygga. Son can do those things, but slipping jewels or his views on ish to enhance a bigger message is important to how he picks his opponents.. He himself said, this brings a short shelf battle life, as who else could he take to get his way of broadcasting his message out there.. As a nygga getting older, I appreciate battle for the entertainment it is, but just like the realization I've come to with hip hop, the abundance of negative images and related shyt absolutely influences youth way more than a Martin Scorsese movie would.. So when there is a dope artist /song that has the power to make a nygga go read or research some shyt for knowledge of self, then I'm all for it.. Ras Kass nature of the threat had a teenage bones nodding his head, specific to I knew I had so much more to learn, whether the bars were 100 percent factual or not.. U get to a point as a hip hop head where u understand that for the most part, nyggas ain't really talking about shyt lol... If you wanted to see b dot vs a regular rapping ass pg or gun bar nygga, go watch the vs fiji osa battle.. Son put his bodybag in bodybag, gave you bars on government/military and what we actually fighting for in America, and a gun bar haymaker with

"I got bloods and crips with me, shyt I even brought the snub with me, just in case I gotta go to the heat, and let it ring twice before I come home and bring love with me... ":banderas:

Also let me point out that this is the reason I was ALWAYS against battlers signing to leagues exclusivily! !!

I knew it wouldn't be long before potential dope cards suffered due to the bullshyt politics of the so called "gatekeepers" like Smack,Beasley, and fat ass Norbes.

It first happened with the Hitman/Chilla match up that I would have loved to see.

And now it's happening with the B Dot/ Th3 Saga match up that has the potential to be dope as hell.

All because once these battlers sign with a leaugue THEY NO LONGER CONTROL THEY CAREERS
If Saga wasn't signed to URL then him and B Dot could go to KOTD or GO RILLA WARFARE or Don't Flop, or Black Ice.

But since URL OWNS Saga, they trynna make Dot Bow down to they "system" just to battle the dude he wants to battle.:stopitslime:

I can't belive these dumb nikkaz is signing these slave deals, the only one who benifits is URL. It ain't like they paying nikkas millions so why would a nikka let them stop they opportunities to get money?:mindblown:

Dummies.

He knows the game. He wants Saga, he knows Saga is in bed with URL, he knew it wouldn't be that simple.

I don't share the excitement for that matchup. I'd watch, but It's kind of obvious where it's going to go.

You have no idea what you're talking about. Every business has contracts, many of them requiring some level of exclusivity. I cannot leave my job today to work for a competing company temporarily, then expect them to allow me to come back. The whole idea of making contracts analogous to slavery is very childish. Yes battle rap itself is somewhat childish, but I'm assuming you have a high school degree, maybe have a job, or own a cellphone at the very least, so a contract shouldn't be anything new to you. You can negotiate the terms of the contract, or you can walk away from it. There are some people signed a URL contract, and walked away from it with no legal repercussions. So it can't be anything close to "slavery". It's standard business practice, KOTD has contracts too...

Th3Saga wouldn't have enough name recognition for B. Dot to want to battle him if he hadn't been promoted by URL for the last 2 years. Can you name 2 guys Th3 Saga battled prior to appearing on URL without having to look it up? Dude has an 800k battle with Suge, he's WAYYYYY more popular than he would have been on his own. Since URL's inception, how many Black battlers have blown up without ever touching the URL platform? Daylyt is one. And he didn't get there by just battling either, we all know what he is willing to do for a little bit of press. B. Dot is growing in popularity, but he's stuck if he's waiting to be lined up with Th3Saga. Who else is there? It's silly to act like the battlers don't benefit greatly from URL branding.

None of these "leagues" can put together a big card without talent that has been branded on URL. There are tons of battlers out there, why does everyone want to book guys who were just on URL?

B. Dot should take a battle with someone who isn't under contract. I'm sure there are other Christian battlers out there in the world, maybe he should contact one of them.

The fact that you mentioned Go Rilla Warfare as a possible destination for.......
