man look at this nygga’s face when Mickey says battlers need to follow what Surf did as far as making music, and Math is like I’ve been doing that, and goes on a rant


Surf is always talking crazy about him and calling him trash so it’s no surprise Math is downplaying him. That’s just natural. Now him downplaying everyone else is pure jealousy. He thinks he deserves more praise for his battle career and music. And he hates seeing other people get it.

Funny enough I remember the old days of Twitter (2010), Surf was lowkey a Math stan.

Dude is all about him. This dude said “people are too scared to come on the show right now” when there’s a serious pandemic going on. His tone was on some “nyggas is scary” type shyt.

This is what happens when you rely on guest. Maybe he should put out a test episode with just him, knowledge, and msfit and see how it goes. Hell try to convince Mickey to be the 4th person and sprinkle guests in every now and then.

I’ll put the Math that beat Diz against any version of Surf. I dunno where this mystique for Surf came from these last couple years but Surf’s record is probably amongst the worse of the top tiers. He makes for entertaining battles because he’s a good rapper but he doesn’t really be winning and/or bodying people

I never got this

Two top tiers actually focused arent bodying each other. I cant even think of any examples of it happening. They typically either match each others energy or someone completely mails it in. Mostly 2-1 battles which is what surf usually ends up in

Dudes bring 3 rounds for surf, hitman holla is the only dude off the top of my head who dropped the ball multiple times in their battle

I think it’s because top tiers know that their fans will always argue for hem because battle rap is most subjective unless someone gets bodied. You can have 3 fumbled rounds and people will still argue that you won as long as the other person didn’t leave earth and completely dominate.

Surf knows that as long as he has 2 good rounds, he can walk away from the battle, say he won and due to his fan base, most people will run with that narrative.

Would be dope if they found a way to get folks to set up 2 cameras per battle rapper so they can be shot almost looking Fight Klubish with a close up to cut to to mix it up. (One might be enough if positioned well)

Only visual effect necessary being a turn of the camera blended to the next shot of the other battle rapper.
