If Hanz gets hot on URL, you think Math is gonna hate?

I wouldn’t be surprised. I wonder what their current relationship is?

Math has always said for years he didn’t want Hanz to battle and simply focus on the music. I never understood it. He would be a bigger name battling anyway.

Hanz still has to perform first. I would like to see Hanz vs Moon, before we even start talking about bigger battles.

I like Danny sometimes. Just think his wordplay, setups and punches can be extra forced with too many qualifiers.

That space time and continue em/continuum shyt was fire.

I just don't like his "like a prostitute in an airplane, im fukkin you up" kinda punches.

I view Danny as a regional guy. I think he can get love in small rooms anywhere though, but at big events outside the west coast? I don’t think he resonate with those crowds.

Hennyman just released a good blog about Lux potentially getting booed at Nome 9.

Listen, I don't wait either guy to get booed at all. I don't want Lux getting booed just to say "I told you so." I just want a classic battle. However, I think Lux getting booed is a HUGE possibility.

Verb & Lux are my two favorite battlers. This is my dream battle. I just want it to go well.

Lux is not really relatable to midwest/southern nyggas. He just isn't. His whole persona & even his rap style is just all NY.

First of all, the fact that he wants to spit 7 minute rounds in front of some Houston nyggas just isn't a good idea. He also really needs to understand the crowd that he's rapping in front of, which he failed to do at Total Slaughter.

Can we all agree that Tsu Surf is currently one of the best rappers on the planet right now?
Like in the midst of all the street drama & battle rap bullshyt he's turned into something special as an artist.

Interesting thing about Surf is I don't fukk with him as a battler at all. Now as an artist, I've been saying for years he was the best artist in battle rap despite the fact that I didn't like him as a rapper. I was just able to recognize that his projects were more polished and put together.

Now? I actually enjoy him as a rapper. In 2018/2019 he's rapping his ass. He's one of the better artist out period, not just for battle rap. People see it which is why everyone is fukking with him.

He has several things going for him. He's relatable to the hood nyggas, he has just enough bars for the nerd nyggas, the bytches fukk with him, and he's still fairly young.

Hell, that freestyle on i-95 is one of the best freestyles I've ever heard. That shyt was crazy.

He could get booed but I don’t see that as a big deal. Hollow and Lux is arguably the best battle ever and they both got booed in the third and that’s the best round of the battle. As long as it isn’t some pre longed booing I don’t see it as a big deal

Something people aren’t factory in imo is who goes first. Outside of Cal, Lux hasn’t gone last in any of his return battles, which I think sways perception a lot.

215 Uptown!


Depending on how it's structured im not mad at this. Youtube aint paying how they used to so they gotta adapt. But 10$ a month might be a bit too steep especially when u compare it to shyt like Apple Music or Netflix which is charging the same price.

5$ a month plus discounts for ppvs and im all over this. Youtube not paying how they used to pay BUT U STILL GETTING SOMETHING.

Also this being a app. Would that mean it's mobile exclusive? I very rarely watch battles on my phone.

Welp Danny fell victim to the curse of the choke after not choking for so long. Helluva run, buddy. But yeah, Franchise is someone he shouldnt be losing to if thats the case. Cot damn. Oh well, if he comes out clean in this Dizaster battle that will be better.
