Californ-i-a by way of BK
I'm in my mid 30's and am the kind to rarely share anything on social media. But to play devils advocate, would these guys be as popular and rich as they are if it wasn't for oversharing on social media?
True that is part of their business. Being social media celebrities is a real thing, and people make a shyt load of money off it, so I get why it happens. But something like this isn't needed to be all over social media. I'm not personally that mad, because I feel like I've been so jaded by this era, I'm used to people posting much crazier shyt online. nikkas will post selfies in a casket if they could.

Facts! I'm not talking about him posting his girl in the hospital bed. That's just too much. But I can't blame them for posting a brand new benz or house they just bought cause that's what their fans and possible endorsers wants to see.

It’s crazy cuz I always felt if I was a battle rapper, I would always think of bars for people I want to battle or I think is nice. I would always have bars saved and in a stash. Didn’t think more than a two week requirement would be needed. @RAW_SPK what you think??

That's for battle rap GODS like LL Cool J, Nas, Jay-Z, Cube and KRS who have openly stated they have raps saved for OTHER emcees.. These Nikkas who battle every month ain't gonna have haymaker bars for Surf when they just battled on RBE last week...

didn’t really think about them almost battling monthly like that. Just expected these dudes to always be on writing mode all day everyday. No days off

Cool. Now I don’t even have to watch the card. Had other plans and was figuring how to squeeze time but don’t have to worry about this wack ass card…
