Any y'all heard that shit bout Slaughterhouse starting a battle league

[Hush]

I think it's gonna b on MTV

[Fart]

i thought eminem was doing a show like that

[Ghost1]

This will be a bad look.

In all ways.

I tolerate the real battle leagues.....like url and kotd.....but even they can be lame sometimes....but id say its the best format....being written and acapella. Mtv will fuck it up as they have every other time they ever did anything woth battling......ultimately it will make battling seem corny....

Then....u have this shitty product tied to slaughterhouse name....if it does succeed then they just xzhibit themselves out the rap game an become known as those goes on that battle show.....if it doesnt then they lose more credibility.....

[Hush]

Your drinking aren't you?

[Fart]

the internet PPV's are the best format. fuck mtv

[Ghost1]

Not actually. Im not sure why i had so much to say about this topic at all....lol.

[Hush]

Nah I want to discuss it. I think the exposure is great for the culture.


Supposedly it will feature
Math
Diz
Day
Big t
Verb

Fight Klub was legit
Opened the door for the smidadack

[King Karaoke]

Bye...

[Ghost1]

Niggas fucked with Smack DVDs for the insight on rap beefs and the unrated videos

The battles was a after thought initially
My opinion is Fight Klub really got ish poppin for battling in like 06

[Sicc]

Should be alright.


Lol Art PPV's not good for the culture, a lot of people refuse to pay to watch. MTV's free, son. A lot more people will see now, if it's actually worth watching. These forums will probably become alive again, cause every stupid kid's going to want to become a battle rapper, like in 2000-2002 when the shit was at it's peak.

[Fart]

...mtv's going to ruin the fuck out of anything they do.

[Sicc]

That is a HUGE possibility.

[anime_boners]

it comes down to a few things


1. who the judges are - there has to be credible, or at least SEMI credible battle judges on the panel. letting the girls from 3LW judge a 30 second freestyle battle beteen two nobodis on freestyle friday isn't so bad. but spending [X] amount of time/weeks writing and rehearsing 3 longer rounds for a battle just to have some ass hat like Miguel not get any bars and pick whoever's jacket he likes better would be the best way to never have real talent on your stage again.

2. they need to be selective with who they let on, or some sort of personal conduct clause in their contracts (assuming the talent signs a contract if they go on the show?) to keep them in line. Having dudes like Daylyt on the show stripping ass naked / rubbing his balls and touching people's faces / being overly physical and starting shit to compensate for the fact he's at best lower midcard, or Math swinging on dudes because he can't handle how they're acting, is BAD look for the culture.

3. NO GIMMICKS. Kinda ties into the last part but more on the side of props and gimmicky angles than personal conduct. Battle rap should be about the RAP. If there's not enough audience to be entertained by straight up battle bars - let it die. Don't try to force it by turning it into Yo Momma.

4. A legit host. Speaking of Yo Momma, other than the generally HORRIBLY STUPID PREMISE, another reason I think that show never got over was the fact that it was hosted by Wilbur Valaderranos or whatever. "Deh weener of deh battahl getss juan thouzahn dollars of CASHMAHNEE" will not help this. Nor will any other C list celebrity judge. While Lush One may not reach the average MTV viewer there are credible/proffessional people with ties to battling who they can put in the host position.



Overall I hope it gets over and takes battling up a notch in the mainstream... but I can't say I trust MTV.

hollow murdered lux

[Hush]

2 and 3 are your opinions Reed

I also disagree with them.


Judges are Slaughterhouse btw

[Geno]

this could be dope though, would peep it out

[uh-oh]

fight klub was dope, came into mention that. that introduced me to serius jones

the white rapper show was a joke from the beginning and it was on vh1, it was never meant to be serious, and there battle thing they did with blind fury on mtv was trying to build off the hype of freestyle fridays on bet. they tried following a format similair to that

as long as they do it like fight klub or like some of the internet leagues now it will be dope.

also hollow definately murdered lux

[Allen Knight]

I remember when arsonal destroyed hollows life on fight klub
Ha that's wen ars was nice now he wack as fuck

[uh-oh]

hollow and ars battled on fight klub?????

i only seen a few episodes i think. i remember NEMS putting in work battling, shit i forget dudes name. but he was nice/around. black dude from detroit i wanna say. but word bizarre was there and shit

NEMS FUCKYALIFE

[Allen Knight]

Yea back in the day wen it first started hollow wasn't nice yet

[Sicc]

IMO, they all have the same battle technique. Flow/Structure wise. To me, it's based on concepts and humorous disses these days.

[Hush]

If you think Big T, Math, and Diz are similar stick to kotd

[Ghost1]

I remember 40cal on fight klub ....spittin a bunch of bars i just heard early that month on his mixtape lol

[namix]

if they are real battles, then I'd expect a 80/20 words-to-bleeeep ratio

i think censorship is the part that could fuck it up and turn it into yo mamma


but i am absolutely gonna check it out either way, and will probably like it more than I should when the time comes!

[Fart]

iron solomon on fight klub losing with writtens vs freestyles
