Nah even QP, the best writer in the game said this
I don't give a shyt wtf a cokehead has to say about anything, I don't give a damn how good he can rap. nikka a few posts up already gave an example of how winnin "in the buildin" don't mean shyt especially when URN N ASH, THAT'S NASH gets the reaction it got IN THE BUILDING.

nikkas swore up and down DNA died vs Tay Roc "in the building" but when the footage drops Tay Roc the one who died via Gas Chamber............. that shyt was debatable like a mf.

Another example nikkas swore up and down DNA 1st rd vs Ill Will was the best round in URL history "in the building" but when nikkas watched it back he only had dat one line. Now granted he won but what happens "in the building" often gets exaggerated just like we seen most recently wit this supposed "bodybag" T Top put Math in which was nothin more than a clear W as well as the clear 3-0 Show Off got vs Bigg K "in the building" but when the footage drops it shows somethin totally different.

Point is "in the building" means nothing to us watchin on Youtube cause we can judge the content for ourselves and not just go off the word of some drunk, high ass nikkas who more than likely showed up already ready to gas up da nikka they came to see anyway.

Yeah. It you're just basically saying people gas how well someone did in the building as a oppose to winning in the building

Ask a battler, they don't care about YouTube fans like that. Hollow might think he beat Surf but he'll never think it's clear because of how it was in the building. Once you lose in the building, it'll always be a lot of people that said you lost. Like I said almost never does someone win in the building and clearly lose on cam anyway. At most it's just much closer than recaps say.

I don't see why. Con was comin off his most impressive performance vs Surf then battled his homeboy Hitman that he admitted he wasn't gonna go hard for.

If you put the Con that battled Surf vs the Magic that battled Chilla, it's a classic either way.

Nah....Magic would of still smoked him, he had presence, rapid pace and good energy along with the haymakers...Things Con never had a day in his life. Would be outclassed from the word go.

Winning in the building means way more to the battlers. There's nothing like leaving the building and feeling you won.

Plus it rarely changes on cam anyway. At most it just looks closer on cam.

Winning in the building is always going to feel more satisfying but it's harder to make an argument against clearly winning on cam. Besides, a lot of factors go into people winning in the building.

There has been quite a few battles where people said one person won in the building and then when you watch it on cam, it's the other way around.

I feel that but to me it matters how battlers feel not us fans. And battlers usually want to win in the building more than on Cam.

More revisionist history? :beli:

Serius Jones definitely beat Clips 2-1 (1st and 3rd) and Magic debatably beat Conceited (2nd and 3rd). I've noticed that battle rap fans like to hand people losses they never had when they enter a slump. Kinda like how people say Rex beat Verb. If Verb was on a hot streak, no one would be saying that.
This is all horrible :scust:

Charlie Clips went for damn near 3 years without admitting to a loss. I couldn't care less about how the battler feels unless he feels like he lost.

Lux, Verb, Surf, Chilla, O-Red, Daylyt (when he's not doing antics), QP, Lotta Zay, Cortez, Nuborn and a few others that escape me are battlers that clearly battle for the camera. You can tell by the way they write their rounds. I feel like it's only a certain type of battle rapper that clearly tries to win in the room...and usually they're the ones that we call gassed.

Relax guys, Syah is getting the throwaways. Are we sure (edit) B Magic vs Syah is 3 rounds?

I don't think just because they're complex they try to win on camera more than the building. I thank they're just trying to win.

Lets talk about how RBE 2 battles are far better than URL 3 battles recently released

If Jimz and Serius comes out and it's a much better battle than Rum Nitty v Charlie Clips was, then ARP needs to start turning up and talking his shyt. Just lock himself in a room and listen to Death Row era Pac for 24 hours, then come out and do a blog shytting on URL's footage.
:pacspit::pacspit::pacspit::pacspit:

After that he needs to watch the Source awards where Death Row Records turned up, then go on Angryfan and just spazz on Smack, lazy azz battlers, biased fans (such as myself lol), dikkriding league owners (Debo), etc. I don't even fully believe that Smack was trying to sabotage his event, but if I'm ARP I'm claiming that anyway. Then I'm issuing a public challenge to Beasley to have cards on the same day AGAIN.....
Who knows when he's going to get an opportunity like this again, he's gotta make the most of it.

I agree with this. They're trying to plan out something that can be documented later for someone to peep like oh thats what so and so did. Not a bad tactic for fans to watch and re-watch a battle. Winning the room helps in the moment and with the recaps later on. It only hurts when the cam tells a different story due to editing and etc.

That's because he constantly put nikkas like Bigg K, JC, or some other nikkas that has made a name for themselves on others league. If you noticed nobody cares about fukking Showoff, or Jimz, or Jai, or Ooops or whoever the hell RBE roster consist of. Nobody checking for them nikkas. It kind of puzzels me when people say "RBE is best league right now" How??? For booking radom ass match ups that anybody can book??? For booking big names vs hot dog water teir battlers???? Like who cared Daylyt was battling J Murda? Or Bigg K was taking Showoff??? I can guarantee yall half the people that heard of those match ups were "OH..MY...GAWWWDD. ANOTHER DAYLYT/BIGG K BATTLE TO CHECK FOR YES" not "OMG DAY VS J ABOUT TO BE A CLASSIC" RBE isnt making a name because of his own battlers, he's making a name off of others leagues battlers (Daylyt, Bigg K, JC, etc). I'm telling yall those match ups could've literally been booked almost anywhere. It's not the league. It's the battlers.
