I was there that night. Noel my guy but he really the Math Hoffa of the FGC.

:wow: i remember i was at a tournament back in college, that nikka Noel was passed out drunk underneath the announcer's area for the whole night. Jwong and company had to carry him to his room :russ:

The talent needs to be able to focus on being the talent and the business arm of the operation has to be solely devoted to that part of it. Imagine Jay-Z in the 90s with no Dame Dash. Imagine if Jordan had to play, coach, AND be the GM.

This whole notion of omitting the middle man and doing the business yourself…everybody ain’t cut like that and it’s not as simple as it seems. There’s a huge learning curve and risky missteps that come with that path.

Yep. And not everyone can just focus on the rounds you got for a battle and negotiate the terms of business with these leagues and platforms at the same time. Probably why some of these guys choke. Got their mind on the business way too much instead making sure their head is in the game when it’s time to battle.

real quick, i see piperboy going off on award because he cursed, finding a way to continue his anti christian rapper attack (its a thing, im sure im not the only one thats noticed it). that shyt is corny. im not even religious like that, but if we doin that, you gotta play it down the middle and call out all these fake arse muslims in battlerap not abiding by the Quran or even a "on the right path" nigg breaking out a gun bar or callin women out of their name. holding niggs to a standard you dont do for anyone else sound butt hurt. maybe his ex wife wasa bible thumper. :yeshrug:

I can’t buy that at all. Those guys are just lazy and don’t take every opponent seriously.

Geechi, T-Top, John John…examples of guys who all do other things outside of battle (podcasts, clothing ventures, cannabis companies, run their own battle leagues, etc.) who you NEVER see choking or slacking in battles. No excuse.

EDIT: Ok…you did preface with “not everyone” can do it.
