Surf won't quit while there's a bag involved, unless his music career REALLY pops off. Surf doesn't have the proper respect for battle rap.

I feel like he would benefit if he decided to focus solely on music. He’s basically the only battlers music I’ve ever heard played in real life, even if that’s courtesy of mozzy. Hood nyggas love Mozzy. Probably will need to wait until COVID is over.

Is Shine #1 now? He might of been #1 for a min honestly. I can't think of anyone i would bet against him right now besides hitman but Shine gives us 4-5 battles a year. Hitman gives us 1. So i gotta put Shine over Hitman just for the consistency and level of comp.

Maybe Lux i guess..... But i honestly might have Shine against Lux. Idk.


I know alot of people are gonna say daylyt but we all know we not gonna see him again until he battles lux. Shine is outside taking everyone.

If I was ranking battlers/top 5 right now based off performances/consistency over the last year

1) K-Shine
2) Chilla Jones
3) Geechi Gotti
4) Rum Nitty
5) Danny Myers

Not the biggest fan of 2/5ths of this list, but this feels accurate.
You leaving T Top off the list??

Should Shine really be on this list this year ? He’s only battle clips and chess right ?

there should be a 3 battle minimum imo

I do understand if you’re looking at this overall the past few years

Depends on what you view as top tier.

Can he sell out a building? Probably not

Is he a top tier talent that regularly deserves to be on the big events? Absolutely

Yeah meant more so in terms of talent. He won't be headlining an event any time soon but it's impressive how he battled his way out of midtier in the last year or so.

Not for this year, it's over the last year or so. That adds in the Nitty and Tay Roc battles, and the 2 two on twos.

Not mad at this list, but Gotti and Nitty looked kinda shaky yesterday. I think there's an argument Gotti is on a decline.
