Dont worry I wont harm you my foolish yet innocent and naive child..

Im dead ass about Serius though.....dude never impressed me out of all the "Legends" in BR. He like right there with E. Ness to me. Its actually a walk in the park for Julian, unless the lil nygga somehow lose.

I don't get why battle rappers with momentum behind them feel the need to be on every card regardless of opponents. I understand trying to kill everything moving but how you go from mook to dna all within a month. If I was easy I'd sit down for a few cards, build some anticipation, let's the fans miss me and only go for names like mook and goods, ask for a bigger bag when I return. Killing Dna won't do shyt for easy at this point but getting killed by Dna will stop all the momentum he been building

You are basically saying he should turn down the biggest payday he has seen.
This Drake card is as big as a Summer Madness, so this is as big a stage as a battle rapper will see this year.
And Drake might be the most important person to impress in the culture right now (including Smack).
It also matters to have an incredible performance when you have the opportunity to battle in front of the most people. You can expand your fanbase dramatically, no matter how you feel about DNA you need to take advantage of this opportunity.

I get that and can't blame him for it. He should get the bag regardless . Its just short term thinking IMO. Specially a hustler like he claims to be should know about supply and demand. Sit down for a few cards, build some anticipation, let the fans miss you and build you up like you're the best to ever do it (fans do that when you had a great battle and then disappear for eg. Daylyte) and then come back vs a Mook and ask for triple the amount as before. Its what I would do, not saying I don't understand him going for the bag right now.

with the money it sounds like them nikkas been throwin out, nah
Eazy was just coming off of kicking Cortez' teeth in a year ago. Demand is at an all time high and they payin for it. fukk all that sitting out shyt.

the newest person Mook's battled forreal in a 1v1 was Tay Roc, right? Aint no guarantee that Mook is still there after you sit out to built anticipation. Lotta old nikkas pop up, pop off, and then refuse to battle anybody new.

Hell, Daylyt waited for Shine and now the demand for that shyt is an all time low. It's a gamble when all you gotta do is take the cash now.
