ARP failed as a talent scout.

Showoff, Oops, Jimz, Jmurda, Heavy Half, etc

These were some of the guys he tried to develop and push :snoop:

These choices are why people don’t really care about when he does attempt to do it like the brick by brick series.

He needs proven talent, whether from url or kotd occasionally for his platform.

Even the imported talent that you can say he helped keep their stock up (or raised it, in Ill Will's case), all URL gotta do is say we'll give you a battle, you just gotta ditch whatever RBE had setup for you. We've seen time and time again what stage really matters to the battlers

The only person that I've seen really buck that trend is Hitman, but that's Hitman.

It seems like Jersey don't really fukk with Jones like that. Is it because of his connection and ties to Harlem?

He's mad arrogant and always came off like he was trying too hard to be cool, pre Math punch

Ever since Math hit the forward, down, down+forward, HP on his ass, he been trying too hard to show how tough he is

Either way, I think he just always lacked authenticity

Math hit that nikka with the forward, up + forward, up on the right stick...

Serius Jones was my first favorite battle rapper and Surf has been in my top 5 for a while now. Plus they both from Jersey. Pains me to see Jones not get respected like that but much like everyone says…he comes off as annoying sometimes. And not the type of annoying you can brush off. Plus Newark/Camden nikkas dont respect nikkas outside of the city like that

Serius and Surf are the same level of annoying but nikkas aren't worried about any repercussions from the Joneses




not for nothing, Real Sikh needs to make an appearance and clearly do someone bad if he has it in him :hubie: he was one of the guys all the vets liked but he might fukk around and drop the ball cuz he doesn't know how to catch a buzz when the culture turns up

Jones a legend.. The hate comes wit the terrority. One of the few to beat Mook on Smack.
Facts.
Beat Mook with all them goofy ass DotMob nikkas gassin every other bar with him.

Regardless how annoying Jones is.
He has the resume and
his legend status is undeniable.
That’s what matters the most.
