I agree there is no Lebron. If Twork had Geechi’s consistency or if Geechi had Twork’s talent they would qualify.

I think Surf is weird because his popularity and talent would make him Lebron but he’s has too many bad performances


I put K-Shine as Westbrook, someone who puts up crazy numbers but if you look deeper some of that shyt is inflated and not all it’s cracked up to be. Both have holes in their game. But when they’re in their bag, they’re both damn near unstoppable.
The bad performances isn’t what holds Surf back from being Bron. If anything that’s the similarity. Surf just hasn’t had the level of game changing wins or consistency after a certain point that Bron has had. Keep Surf’s career the same but have him beating Lux clearly last year, that would make the Bron comp more apt.

I'm having a hard time recalling a clear Surf win other than a fresh home from prison Hollow Da Don. There have to be others....

:patrice:

That wasn't even clear. I had hollow winning. The only clear Surf wins imo is Vs brix and hitman.

Surf won in the building, everyone walking out was like "Damn Surf smoked Hollow" but on playback Hollow won

Off topic, but same event, I still til this day think Chilla beat DNA, even in the building.

I wouldn't even call Mook Jordan...he's more Jerry West in terms of being the logo for battlerap to the mainstream. I'd more look at Lux as Jordan, the highest peak Cal/Hollow in arguably the best era (2010-2012)
Lux is closer to Magic than anything. An anomaly talent wise, one of the most charismatic to do it, essentially universally loved in the game, the best ever at a certain important skillset even if sometimes casuals underrate his overall ability.. The fact that Mook beat Lux so easily/thoroughly essentially takes Lux out of the "Jordan" category.

Mickey saying Mook is Jordan and Mickey pen is nuts (pause)...but yall go head and try to debunk a nig like me tho, hahaa. Twork still my guy, that was just the liquor talkin, he gets the pass for talkin stupidity.

Surf aint no Bron tho, that's bad.
How you gonna use Mickey to validate your opinion and then disagree with his opinion in the same comment :dead:

I be on bullshyt bruh, don't mind me.


Nah, you don't have to 100% cosign something if it's not 100...he was like 80% on point with that tweet, lol.

And tbh Mook aint even Jordan, it was just the timing was perfect that homie posted that, right after my pro-Mook rant, so I had to cosign Mickey's bullshyt, :laugh:. There isn't a Jordan of battle rapper, somebody who's just clearly better than everybody and got the resume on top of that...not that I can think of
