Its the biggest battle he's ever been offered. :manny:
He's getting cooked, but the battle should easily reach a million views if he brings it.
Exactly
Even if he doesn't win but has a fight back performance his stock will go way up
Definitely a good look
I just don't know how he could win
He gonna need "we like you better as a fat nikka" for three rounds
I don't see it he just had an opportunity with Twork and didn't really cook

had a feeling when it was announced Hitman on RBE it would be vs BC, RBE does those grudge matches that wont get booked in URL cause of the status difference in the battlers, even math/hollow and verb/mook were like that in a sense, maybe not all time but for the moment. those were not battles getting booked on URL. and of course BC should take it, even though yeah I think he will lose.

I don't think Serius had any interest in battling Math until he saw him beat Hollow. I believe Serius/Math will take place on this card.

I'm thinking this is the card Cortez was on. One thing about RBE is they really give longtime vets an opportunity to get the big battles that alluded them.

Big Kannon vs Calicoe? I'm just throwing it out there because of the shyt Big Kannon was talking last year.

What are some battles out there that need closure besides Math battles (vs Mook/Serius/Diz)?
I feel like with Diz its weird cause they did have a complete battle, maybe Diz didnt get his closer off but thats about it. it would be a battle purely based on describing the altercation and what went down after, not sure if that would be a good battle outside of rooting for potential fukkery, Serious yes cause it only went a round and a half or less than that maybe a round and a quarter

Smh I quoted the wrong vid.

Anyway, yea this is an uphill battle for Bill. He gotta be at least the level he was at vs A Ward while also having some angles that work.

I agree about Diz/Math. The battle is fairly recent and doesn't warrant a rematch. In fact, I don't even like rematches being booked in general unless it just really makes sense.

This isn't about what I think though. The fact that they were trying to book the battle last year, and that both sides were somewhat interested, means they feel some type of closure is needed.

I think I have 3Letterman/Angryfan team 2nd as far as battle rap media, but that might be nostalgia talking. 3Letterman was overly aggressive when he was with Angryfan.

It's funny looking back at it, but I remember when they first came out, I had a hard time differentiating Caps and 3's voices. It wasn't just me, because the guests couldn't tell at times either.

Obviously they sound very different, but it's easy to differentiate voices when you've been hearing these nyggas for years now.

He wasn't one of my favs but he always had the scoop and was able to explain things well.

If we took a poll we'd probably have a bunch of different answers.
Chris Unbias was the gatekeeper of order in battlerap

Minnesota Luke documented Battlerap

Both were the most important pieces to the culture from a longevity perspective imo

CAPS was the scout and the one to adress all bullshyt in battlerap, with his show being the #1 source for updates (which Black Compass is right now)

JayBlac was the great analyst with the poise to keep it funny enough to not offend battlers where CAPS was needed to still make en feel uncomfortable.
His importance to me rose tremendously with the creation of CHAMPION

It single-handedly brought needed structure with professional visuals to Battlerap and elevated the culture
