I was watching this with some ppl who arent into hip hop and they were telling how shamefull this whole battling thing is, dissing each other for no good reason. This is killing hip hop for real ya'll.
What a faggot! You clearly some band wagon jumping mother f***er, who only got into Hip Hop once climaxing after a 50 cent video!
How can you say battling is killing Hip Hop, it's the sole practice that basically built the Culture, weather you like it or not!
it's just now days battling locally doesn't get pushed to the limits anymore! I remember when the whack cats that got schooled, went home and became better Mc's just because of Battles!
Cape town is a fine example, if you were whack back in early 2000 and stepped up, cats let you know, you couldn't half step and you made an effort to come harder! saying shit like that just proves you new in the game! I also think the concept of battling has been lost here, cat's are way too sensitive and go home crying about what some cat said in a battle. It's not real beef... someone's just better than you on that given day, prove you better! And selling records has got nothing to do with it! It's a skill thing, and should be just that! Cats tryna put hooks in battles, WTF?!?
It's also just the Mc battles were all this soap opera shit goes down, peep a b-boy battle in Cpt, cat's look like they gonna kill each other, every dancer is there to make the next cat look like a dick, then when it;s done... Every body cool with each other?
Battling is Hip Hop's Olympics, with out it some preppy A&R c*** that used to like kenny g is gonna dictate what Mc is dope
I'm down with unity and all but totally disregarding something that actually builds more than you making poppy watered down music, gets to me?!
