Essential The Official Battle Rap Random Thoughts Thread (URL, KOTD, UW etc...)

[MJ Truth]

they lost money again?

Yeah Im sure he’s starting to feel that pressure like he needs to do something. With the URL making these moves, he probably feels like his platform is outdated.

I always thought the final piece was for the URL to start live streaming events that may not be PPV quality and this deal should allow that.

Organik may just wanna cut his losses and move into another form of business at this point. Maybe open a coffee shop or something.

Well, I think they are still recovering from when they lost money I think on the MASS events. It looks like the Town Bidness events have been balancing their shyt out because as much as I think they should keep the events in Canada, they committed to fukking with the West Coast for the most part when GT folded. The Bunker was such a dope ass idea but I guess it was too much for them to keep around.

Plus, they done had Drake hosts some of their biggest battles so I know this has to be crazy for them to deal with.

So this is the big announcement that Beasley was talking about

 

[Anerdyblackguy]

So what about the URL app? Fox isn’t going to want YouTube battles.


And yeah organik may need to fold KOTD he was talking suicide last year

sort of re: the app discussion. what do you think this impending announcement could be? this could change the dynamic all over again if its as big as Beasley is hinting.

this app is definitely not as big/well-known as he was implying in the video but this is probably what he was referring to.

this also explains why geechi-twork is on the card. wanting to launch the partnership right.

So if I’m interpreting this correctly, all PPV events will now be on Caffeine instead of WatchBattleLive with no VOD and then the battles will drop sometime afterwards on the app as usual?

Correct

 

[FreshAIG]

 

[EA]

Correct

Ahh ok. It’s a good look for URL but as fan on a different time zone, VOD was ideal because I didn’t have to stay up late and now I’m back to waiting for battles to drop on the app

 

[theflyest]

Correct

That’s a huge assumption you just made. It’s not specified in that tweet.

It just says “URLTV event will stream live on caffeine.”

What I’m saying is they may be doing events specifically for that app while still doing SM/Nome/Whatever on PPV.

So all the app events, born legacy events, Banned legacy events, basically events that are never on PPV, could be the events that are streamed on caffeine.

However, perhaps all “PPV “ events will be on there and they will still stock up on content as they usually do for those other closed room events.

 

[T-K-G]

So now it's completely mandatory to watch a 9 hour event?

No VOD?


fukk these nikkas imma love watching and sharing the bootlegs of this shyt.

Every time they do something that works for the fans they "upgrade" to some bullshyt

The drake bars are gonna be unbearable
