I don’t even believe cass would let jc hear his rounds. I think jc is exaggerating what he heard.. but if cass is letting people hear his shyt, I hope he’s using it to his advantage and taking criticism and adjusting as need be...

We've seen this story over and over again though, reciting on the phone, shyt be dope, fire, crazy, etc. .....

Get on the stage.....Half of that shyt don't land like that

Goodz 30 and y'all know I've never cared for Goodz, but I can admit he has everything else needed to easily win outside of "bars". He's a seasoned and conditioned Vet nonetheless. Cass is not, not even close....he still has to showcase that his performance matches all the studying he's done.

And this is what makes it hard for me to even give the win to Cass. Based on what he beat Diz with and what I have seen from Goodz, I just don't see it right now. Its possible for Goodz to lose if he shows up with a bunch of "taste this sweat" and "bambi bars". And Cass will have slightly better bars that are mostly gonna be random street shyt with little personals here and there. And if Cass shows up with some of that shyt like he had when he battled Diz, he's gonna sound like Conceited when he battled Hitman (they were both bad in the next 2 rounds but you get what I mean).

LOL @ this winning at the promo. I'm with Goodz on this shyt...it matters more so in the ring. Can't wait for Saturday either.

I think what’s enjoyable about Cass’ promo is that you’ve never seen anyone shyt on Goodz the way Cass is, and there’s just nothing Goodz can do about it.

When have you seen Goodz get punked verbally like this? Goodz is typically the one who treats nyggas like they are a little nygga.

I hope the weight loss helps Cass performance.
Very true. I am wondering if it will get inside his head

am I the only one that thought the Cass/Goodz faceoffs were good? Cass basically won 1 v 5 :dead:

The way it was shot was dope. We gotta give it credit.
I think we are used to the face offs just being two battlers going at it with a mediator there.
Not something that was very cinematic and actually kind of cool with some of the outside input.
I don't mind it but it seemed like it would be better to let them just both argue and keep it at that.

I think the bigger issues were Queenzflip and not enough uninterrupted footage of the back and forth between Goodz and Cass. The battle rappers' thoughts thing was cool even if people feel like it was presented as Cass vs the battle rap world/culture. I don't mind that stance for promo purposes lol.

Cassidy said on another interview he was on the phone with JC letting him hear his bars. I don’t think he’s exaggerating.

I think the concept was dope. I think it would be amazing to use it with Lux-Verb or any other battle. I think the only issue people really have is that Cass was talking that shyt and no one wanted him to be interrupted lol.
