the volume card is fire to me so far. im even a little interested in verb/dna, much more than I was when dna started pushing for it years ago when i had zero interest. i just hope hes not taking any battles near it and i hope verb takes him seriously but even that could end up being a decent battle. rest of the card is fire. i wonder about twork vs ave mainly if twork is going to go hard but it has potential.

nah DNA just cooked factz
and Mickey had his lil cheerleading squad with aye verb, a-ward and others

I still got Factz taking it 2-1. I think I gave Factz the first and DNA the second. I edged the third to Factz because of how he set all that story line up for a pretty big closer at the end. I don't see too many rounds like that personally done that well. However, I can see someone giving DNA the battle; even though I am a critic of his style at times....he was a different person in that battle. And you right, Factz had his squad but they weren't as liud as NWX has been when they cheer. Just sayin'.....

Stamp. Swamp can’t fukk with Ace on any level. If Swamp wins that joint, that means Ace fukked up.

I got Ace 2-1. I like Swamp but he is missing a few components to his style I think that would make him better. I don't know what for now. All I know is that he reminds me of Cool Breeze a whole lot and he is funny.

Danny has Hollow on Traffic
Ave has Twork on a Vol card

If Ave beats Bill Collector in Philly & Twork on a Vol he's going to get COTY imo
The Volume battle will be abysmal. I don't like either of them, and the "Twork/twerk" punches/flips will probably be unbearable. I could be wrong, but that sounds like a snoozer to me.

Swamp vs Ace Amin at Vol. 5.

Swamp better come with longer rounds cuz Ace gonna go in.
Neither of these have earned the volume stage, Amin just got washed by Snake, Swamp's nice but still needs to put in more work. URL should make these guys earn these plates, can't be pushing of hype/promise alone

See how this is playing out?

Dude is battling Hollow but the match has already been undermined on several levels. How does he keep getting caught up in this situations?

Man up... take that gamble on Hollow having some stale material like everyone else does. Your critics won't accept another tainted win. Anything less than 4 minute rounds makes you look scared.

And I like The Volume Setting.. But URL keep promoting "Lack of Big Crowd interference" LOL That is a Lie.. It's still Gassed up in there..

Smack needs to put his foot down and say no to entourages. Period. Small room. Big stage. They create congestion and confuse everybody. In the JC vs Chess battle one of Chess dikk buddies pushed him into JC and made him spill his drink. Then JC pushed Chess. That couldve lead to a disastrous debacle.

Ave can't rap with twork same way twork couldn't rap with nitty

This is gonna just be another physical "almost fight" battle

And the get around for this is the battle rap "crew"

Smack can't tell other battlers (some on the card) that they can't stand behind someone in their crew

That's why these nikkas just lettin anyone into their clique, gassin up every event

Goonies :scust:
NWX :scust:
Cave :scust:

I liked when it was just Dot Mob with that gimmick
