Shout out to DNA always working. He shows these guys there are always other opportunities out there. Can't be afraid to network and promote yourself.

How did DNA skip his 30's though? 10 years ago he was 20 but he's 40 now. You can't tell me those two brothers in the pic aren't the same age.

If I was ever in the same room as 50's hairline I might end up getting Slowbux'd. That's different I couldn't look at it without laughing. Hopefully it's a bad angle.

twork vs roc i cant even get excited cause i still have little faith in twork i know he had 3 rounds vs loso but still. if i knew twork was coming with 3 i might be more hype. jaz and gattas aint bad but its not "best card ever"

with the rate these battles are getting churned out lately. is it possible we either run out of battles or more likely run out of quality battles ? idk about the rest on here but like UM 1 Im fukkin with that class but this UM 4 class is wack to me for the most part. this shyt could be diminishing returns soon, what do you think?

Trying to ascertain what SMACK sees in Lu that he doesnt see in the rest of the class (JTN, Fonz, Sikh). Im not big on EZ but at least he has SOME redeeming qualities.

Those guys aren't really even on Smack's radar yet. The Eazy's, Lu's, Fonz types are still dealing with P. And P is extremely partial to DMV/Goonie battlers. I think he likes all of them, but Lu is the prototypical battle rapper they (URL staff) like for big stages: Energy/Performance, High Punch Rate, Marketability with his slogans and personality off stage. P sees Lu as a potential big event headliner in a year or two.

I think he feels the same way about Eazy, and even Jey, but to a lesser extent. I don't think they see that in Fonz, but Fonz will eventually get some opportunities. But with P, it's a preference to what he likes and that Twork-lite style is what he loves.

So lets say.... hypothetically speaking. if something were to......happen to P. And I mysteriously took his place. I could change that?

Eazy definitely feels like a Smack-level battler. Next gunner status. Would be surprised if Smack aint askin about Eazy for cards.
iirc, Smack was the reason Jey was in UM1. Jey was Norbes-backed and i think P may resent that...at the very least, Jey has had P bars for both Castro and Kid Chaos.
Fonz just had life shyt after UM1. I think he's gonna be more active on URL/Caffeine, with this super card being the start.

I know most of y’all don’t care for KOTD’s new season on Twitch but Dubb Da Fenom vs. E Ness is a fire battle.

Lu found a very entertaining way to approach battling and it’s working. Smack peeped it from when he was in UM more than likely. He is like Shine but just way funnier and less serious. I can’t remember what it was but Battle Rap Trap had a video with the Goonies roasting each other and I feel like Lu has been putting more of that stuff in his rounds now.

Rosenberg Raw vs. Cityy Towers on KOTD.
Basically Rosenberg won 2 rounds but Cityy scored so high in his 3rd round that he took the battle. The relaying of the scores were a mix up. Avo saw Raw won 2 rounds but yet Cityy had way more points to beat Raw.

I actually ran into this problem on the URL app when I voted for a battle before. I’m thinking the person I voted for in 2 rounds won the battle but I vote for the other person highly in one of the rounds and they win. fukking weird

Sidenote: CAPS pulled up and sat down with Lush One and talked about it on the Twitch feed.
