not a big fan of pat, charron, or diz personally :yeshrug:

Saynt is dope but like Franchise and Geechi, and ICE, is way out of place on KOTD, the crowds wait for Lush to flip out and then they react. the brand doesn't have its own identity and never really did, as many have pointed out, since it took over from Fresh Coast and rode that wave for a few years before paying smack battlers to show up

i hope organik has learned from this by now and comes with something new. sounds like his team was shyt too

Whether or not you like Pat, Diz, or Charron personally...they have made a mark in the game somehow. Just sayin'.

The thing with ICE is that he had some politics that didn't work out for him on URL; now that he had his run with the chain, which he was starting to stumble with in battles, hopefully he can go back to URL. Geechi worked his way up past that Saynt battle and Saynt still hasn't gotten the looks he needs. Well Franchise addressed his issues with KOTD. I think its more to it than Lush reacting and them seeming way out of place.

Yeah I think Organik will pull thru and learned from this rough year. I mean, Bishop dipped and I think really the only person left for real was Gully. Lush came back but you know how that goes.

Ace kinda bodied Snake in this faceoff. Hopefully his interview/media game translates to the stage and he doesnt become another Jai/Jakkboy

Snake is not that smart and Ace is a genuine intellect so yeah bodying him in a faceoff should be expected

i like both dudes as rappers but Ace is better. and i believe him when he says he thinks Snake is not that good

ironically Snake's reaction to Mack Mel's first round against him is exactly like how i picture Ace reacting to Snake lol

on a semi unrelated note, i heard jakk talking last weekend about how he had to rebrand himself, that he didn't really mean to be the "bad guy" of battle rap but it just took off and he ran with it, but now he thinks it went too far. kinda surprising to me because i thought he was just a natural a$$hole but maybe he was playing the part

I see it the same way, even though I at least understand why Jones is insecure. That footage will live forever. The Math/Diz brawl doesn't make Math look nearly as bad.

But the bottom line is RBE had enough money to make him go through with all this. I'm sure the contract calls for them to complete the battle to get paid in full.

Yea Math confirmed that whoever gets physical first isn't getting paid
