Won't even front, 25% of the enjoyment I get from following battle rap is the dysfunction. The shyt is so embarrassing sometimes it's like a first rate dark comedy. Smack often seems like a character from a Ricky Gervais black, hood version of the British version of the Office. Dude up on stage with no coin to flip, mispronouncing sponsors' names, using nahmsayin and jahurd as nouns, adjectives, and verbs... Drunkenly blurting out smiidddidididididididididididididack with a gigantic birdsnest on his face... Continually demonstrating an inexplicable inability to run a public event despite supposedly being a promoter... KOTD and Em poaching the talent who made Smack's brand, and his response is to channel Isiah Thomas' GMing with the Knicks and sign exclusive deals with Prez Mafia and Ah Di Boom.
