It would be fire if they had like 2 or 3 fixed days per week where they would drop a battle

Like podcasts do

I get it but it's not like they misled people imo. They should look to drop them rather quickly. I'm not sure if they promoted it crazily or people were simply excited by the matchup announced which made it feel like it was.

Their schedule should be packed throughout the year anyway with the QOTR addition and all of the Banned legacies/born legacies even if they don't have as many giant events. No reason to hold onto too much for too long.

I disagree. The way they marketed this event, nikkas thought it was a live ppv on the app. Obviously a ploy to get more subscribers. Then you had people saying all the battles would be available on Monday. Like nikkas didn’t know what was going on because url was so deceptive. It’s Tuesday and we have 1 dam battle.

"Here's all the battles at once nahmean, feel free to binge all those and then unsubscribe ju heard?"

I’m not mad at Smack spreading the battles over a month or some shyt.. that’s good business.. but don’t try to deceive me into thinking this event was PPV/and or we would have access to the battles immediately after the event. That’s the shyt I don’t like... the deception.

Man, Ooops is really leveling up.
Makes you wonder about that news story on him about his timesheet or whatever that was mentioned. Even though that was a blemish, this dude was in an Emmy nominated documentary after being a politician and got to build with De Niro. Cot damn, son.

:whew:

I was not under the impression that it was PPV or live on the app at all. Other events they called app only events weren't live. They themselves never said that it was. Somebody spreading a photoshopped pic of the app with a picture of them setting up must've fooled ppl. It being on the app was the ploy to cop the app.

That's how I saw it :yeshrug:.

French is the Kim k of the rap world.. Elite social climber (with limited talent themselves)

Well French Montana is a great social climber. He went from running around in New York hanging around around mad b to rubbing shoulders with elite industry folks

Ah, got it. I knew something was up with how he just popped up all of a sudden to me. I heard his name more than his actual music.

just out of curiosity what artists do you follow?

Currently, I do fukk with Griselda. I dig some of what Da Baby does. Pivot Gang. Homeboy Sandman. Quelle Chris. Always been a big De La Soul fan. Devin The Dude. Likwit Crew. K-Rino. Little Brother. 2 Chainz. PRhyme. Black Milk. Roc Marciano. A lot of folks to name.
