Mickey Factz is recording an episode of Drink Champs right now

I really do wonder how nyggas like him survive exclusively off music. This nygga is more like media for battle rappers and the wordsmith in hip hop.

I mean this dude is not even an underground rapper, he’s so far below underground I’m not even sure there is a word for it. He’s like under the underground, because I’ve never heard anyone play his shyt, ever.

Ghostwriting and shows. There's guys way lower than him on the totem pole that I know make money off rap, because there's so many avenues to make money now.

I know he's wrote multiple songs for Diddy and Kanye. I think he bought a house in Atlanta and a Benz off the Diddy shyt.

Hitman is a diva but I don’t think he gets enough credit for his talent and his success
Absolutely

And his professionalism, he comes prepared and gives 3rds as he should.
Hitman being a professional is a huge part of what got him so far in his career as an artist.

He doesn’t touch his opponents or any of that in battles.

He should be put on a higher pedestal.

ESPECIALLY with the likes of Surf and Twork moving like CLOWNS the moment they got some fame.

His post just screamed victim.
Even tho I understand what he meant, the way he phrased it and the timing was off.
When I read it I knew people were gonna run with it and use it AGAINST him.

He shoulda known better.
Especially after the Cassidy battle aftermath, he shoulda calculated / worded his frustration differently, better and at another moment.

FACTS.

Mickey understands business and moves like a professional. (Being underground doesn’t mean you can’t make money)

To those that really study how he moves it ain’t that hard to understand he’s able to make a living off rap.

fukk all that there's a skill in making battle rap palatable as well

i aint gonna remember a damn thing from those daylyt rounds but rock paper scissors is still one of the best bars in all of battle rap due to how simple it is

once you gotta provide genius breakdowns and go on google scavenger hunts, who is still enjoying and having fun with this shyt?

i aint hearin alladat and even if i did and went back i wouldn't think the shyt was better because now he incorporating the periodic table of elements n shyt

sidenote if swamp was a diff type of battle rapper he'd already have an angle about ttop using Kenneka Jenkins in a bar but now he wanna be righteous and shyt. It'd take the sting off at least..

Eh nikkas like what they like! YOU may not fukk with going back and hearing breakdowns of shyt you may have caught, but other (ME) do. Most of these battle rap nikkas say the simpliest shyt get a reaction. For ex: Hitman aint say shyt that made you say "damn...this nikka spittin" shyt was A.B.C rap.

I can appreacite a nikka taking his craft to the next level..


I mean LOL
