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.

The way DNA has been promoting power the last 5 plus years it would be dope if he got a cameo on one of these shows.

Probably would never happen but would be dope

Californ-i-a by way of BK
if Drake is attending, probably not. Most likely want a caffeine controlled environment similar to that Geechi/rum finals.

it’s pretty crazy that they don’t need ticket money nowadays.

Yeah, that Fox money is something serious. It's kinda like sports, I think like a very small amount (15%) of NFL revenue comes from ticket sales. Most comes from TV deals. Ticket sales for revenue was always a very low level business model that couldn't last long.

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.

I can see why Raw would be pissed but it makes sense. It also highlights the different way people judge battles.

Some people judge battles as who won the most rounds strictly, which is how you people who got Surf beating Nitty or T Top, even though he literally only rapped two rounds in each battle.

Then you got people who say a guy could win two close rounds but if the other guy bodied him in the other round, they won. Think Rex and Math.

I guess it’s just a perspective thing. Some people feel if you edge two rounds it doesn’t matter what happens in the third round, you already win. Others feel if you dominate one round and lose the other two but they’re close, then you’re the winner.

TODD seeming really depressed. A far cry from when he was claiming he was gonna put Surf into retirement and make people never want to hear him rap again.


He is the "levels" guy. And he got 3-0'd by a dude that doesn't even respect hard work. That has to be demoralizing. Surf will mention him for years to come. As a victim.

His big brother was there too. Who wants to get 3-0'd in front of their blood family? Big bro trying to give that "I support you regardless" energy... but inside he's disgusted.

And JJDD said some goofy shyt with the LB Da Boss bar. Coming off the Ace Amin thing it looks like he cares about battle rap respect too much.

what it's sounding like to me

Lux vs someone consistent, top 3 = Geechi

Couple Rematches on the card.
One the culture will react for: Rum vs Twork (Assuming it's not Twork vs Roc)

One the culture won't react too much for: Surf vs Calicoe, Alternate guess for who Surf has been talking wild about: Surf Vs Math

Brizz on the card: Brizz vs Mook? I doubt it unless there's a serious bag here...and there might be.
Blac said it was twork vs Roc

Am I the only one not interested in geechi vs lux? I just don't see that being a good battle for the obvious reason that geechi style is too direct (simple) while lux is too complicated.

I'm not even excited to see lux vs day anymore at this point. If it doesn't happen before the end of the year they can keep it lol.
geechi's disrespect would be at an all time high and Lux gotta go to another space to unlock an angle that's gonna land IMO :hubie: I'm all in on that over watching Mook get dogwalked
