Tdot.. till the death of me
I never understood calling Tay Roc gassed. It's not like he's from new York and has a new York bias. Maybe the fans just like his bars and delivery?

To me Tay Rocs delivery and bars go hard.

I personally thought rum nittys MOP ANTE UP bar was good but it wasn't crazy to me.. But nikkas on here and in the crowed was damn near throwing their hats in the air..

Does that mean ya'll gassin? Or did you legit like the bar?

This is something that Roc's fans on here have even admitted to being a stretch.

And I actually agree about Rum's ante up bar. It wasn't a bar like that to me either, but his overall body of work was something the fukk else.

I'm a Roc fan. He's in my top 5 and I don't admit to that. To me his reaction is deserving.

People forget NY has the toughest crowed. They are generally the hardest crowds to please. Artists, A & R's.. Fans have all said this.

So I just don't see why the toughest crowed would gas someone that isn't even from there.

My personal opinion is that calling Tay Roc gassed is just the cool thing to do. People are followers and whatever the general consensus is.. People just run with it :yeshrug:

That rhyme that dude spit about Tay Roc had me laughing tho :mjlol:

Lotta Zay will never live down throwing in the towel vs Danja Zone of all people. I don't care if every round of his is like Lux's 3rd against Calicoe :mjlol:

I fux with nikkas like suge and roc for what they are. Hot headed and ignorant. I know what to expect from them and dont look for attributes they dont possess. Same way as i dont complain about lack of a story line after watching for example Die Hard 3.

nikkas like Suge and Roc are fan favorites in the building cause the crowd prefers gully ignorant shyt thats easy to get and doesnt require a second watch.

That being said Roc is gassed at times breh. "Roc is foul. I'll shoot up your building and hope i shot a child" had nikkas damn near fainting on and off stage. :francis:

:mjlol: I agree that line isn't clever at all.. or a metaphor but it's vicious. He's basically just saying he doesn't give a fukk about anything.

People like that 'I don't give a fukk' shyt when it's authentic.

Let's also not forget that Roc himself said he didn't like the way his DNA battle looked due to gas.

I agree that his appeal is not the strength of bars, and everyone's bars shouldn't have to be A1 to be considered elite or whatever. Original post was just my :usure: at him standing up there hearing that shyt that Ave was spitting and thinking "AND IF IT WAS ME IT'D BE WORSE." It's like "nikka you ain't written a round that dense in your career."

fukked up that I have to admit that with Roc's appeal to the fans, the shyt could be true :francis:

LOL @Delicious posts every time Tay Roc is brought up
I actually brought it up this time :russ:It baffles me breh, but I've learned to accept it to an extent. Be damned if I won't ask questions tho if I think nikkas won't catch feelings.

I've come a long way in a year or so. I used to think he was hands down, no exception, straight up trash. Nowdays I find that there's been a few rounds I liked, and that he brings something that nigs obviously love, especially in the room.

Roc is in my top 5. If that makes me a roc stan :yeshrug:

Never got how people say he gassed. This nikka is from bmore not NY. Lmfao

Ain't nothing wrong with being a stan, but I'll repeat it.. Roc himself admitted to at least one of his battles being gassed. Even went so far as to say he didn't like it. Since then I think he's embraced it and I can't blame em. I would ride that wave too if my style was shaking venues.

I think Todd is the only guy in battle rap that I am baffled by.

Even with battle rappers I don't care for, I can at least understand their appeal.

Todd is the one guy in battle rap that I feel is awful. His voice is terrible, he doesn't say anything hot, & he doesn't have the "it" factor.

You can put Todd vs anyone on paper & it's gonna look awful
