tru tru.... but then again compared to the mcs in real life
mcs on the net i feel dont compare.
so there fore i give no respect to a statement
of the downfall of the skill. of what? a hobby?

[Sarcasim Tag]he is absolutely right syn, I mean think about it, Psicobabble or Ja-Vid or You or the numerous other "netcees" have absolutely NOTHING on LiL john or Puff Daddy. You guys are no where neer there lyrical capability. And I mean, the fact that most talented "netcees" only use the net as a springboard and also to gain exposure is also rediculous to think. I remember when Jin used to be on the net, and post over at RM, He's absolutely pathetic. Who does he think he is, i mean HE is truley a netcee becase he happend to post online once in a while, how dare he get signed[/Sarcasm Tag]

Oh you were referring to the kids that do audio syn? The kids that simply post online to gain exposure and dont act gangsta because they know how to open notepad and TYPE some iLL phat rhymes!?

You meant THOSE kids thatleft the site.

My bad, Then i would have to agree with everything that you said

;)

Chill the fuck out man, seriously. You've been power tripping as of late. Does one post really bother you THAT much that you'd go to all that bother to prove a point?

Like you give a fuck what i post in here. I must have 5000+ bullshit posts and you've never done anything, so why now?

Feeble Minded 02-05-04 06:43 PM

Some of you raise a good point, varentineo and one other person said that its more of a stage, the older heads whove done it longer and are better left and now we're becoming the dope ones. Thats a better way to look at it, we'll see if it comes true. I wonder how these newbies compare to quo's skill level when he was new to text ? probably about the same ..

T West 02-05-04 07:46 PM

I think that rapbattles.com can be compared to the business cycle? Hopefully i'll be correct as I explain myself.

This site consists of 4 stages: Depression, Recession, Recovery, and prosperity.

Now it seems to me, by what is mentioned...is that Rapbattles.com was at prosperity maybe back in 2002....since I am hearing names like Bare Knuckles, Shadow, etc... all were around near that time peroid.

Now I'm guessing that has died down and right now rapbattles.com is experiencing what is known as Depression where the site has literally plumetted to the ground.

I think this has probably been one of the best posts i've seen made seen I've came to rapbattles.com. Since you are making it public that drastic changes must be made...which can only result on Rapbattles.com experiencing recovery, then prosperity, then recession, the depression, and the cycle will continue until this site eventually dies.


Now before I really start to start not making any sense...i'll jsut shut my mouth.

Feeble Minded 02-05-04 09:01 PM

it won't necessarily die, unless it is sold and the owner closes it down . .

Horud Skys 02-05-04 10:12 PM

Str8 I ain't knocking on ya'll u got skillz but there are fucking 3 million other heads better than u everywhere so its doubtful any of u will make it big

Slik Shadow 02-05-04 10:15 PM

word

Def Con 02-05-04 10:16 PM

Someone should find verses by Bare Knuckles....Shadow...or whatever the "dope" heads were back in '02.......and post them so we can see why we suck so much dick?

T West 02-05-04 10:17 PM

Well your comment is true Horud...but there aren't too many people here who brag about how good they are at audio...most are just doin it for fun.

And in anything you do, der is a very very high chance that there is somebody who is better than you at it. Skill isn't the only factor that decides who goes famous in anything...Usually it is determined by luck and who is most commited...then a bit of skill on the side.

Young Gunz fits what I am saying.

is two bars....

the most oxymoronic statement i've ever seen is "text freestyle"....get the fuck outta here....

as far as audio goes... you got everyone remixing a song with there lyrics... for some mixtape no one cares about...and everyone else using someone elses style to spit (i.e. diplomats, fabulous, random famous NYC emcee), shit is fuck sad... yall to lazy to make up your own shit...

im tired of this generation of hip hop as a whole pretty much.



Yeah well....

As would be the reason I said it.

OutCome 02-06-04 01:47 AM

I agree with alot of the statments hear.. But first off isnt Quo aka Slowhands from the old Rb???? Lmao if so he Has gotten some what better.

i dont see need in spitting anything near a good verse in text either way, yes if your a newbie sure shoot att your "greatness" into one verse, maybe it will help, as far as text goes i do not belive there is a limit you can reach for greatness, although text comes to a point that sez

"grab a fucking mic, save the money you kids get from your parents"

I dont see a point in working hard in my verses for any battle ive done since i changed my name.. theres no point so i just type it up real fast. Keystyle ( LoL is a good oxymoron)

As far as somthing that was spit back in the day of old RB

One of the illest lines ive hear.. Went somthing like

"It must be 6:30, cuz im winnin this battle hands down" - shadow

Whats fucked up is now half the newbies on this site are going to cop that line, flip it and spit it as there own, since thats what the magority of this board does.. read n respit.

Oh well, hopfully things will imrove ( doubt it though, RB has gone down hill for awhile even in shadows last days)
Whats worse half decent people are running mouth actting tough shit, voting is garbage, and Some one really needs to try moderating Front lines better.. I did my best at giving every battle a break down, in hopes to show how to give good voting, but there still MAD sleepers, and newbies running everywere

If anything i would move to label ONE account PER IP... Fuck that bullshit "my friends wanna post" to damn bad, its called a Libary..

OnE

T West 02-06-04 01:52 AM

^lol, dat line is pretty dope.

But see..this is the problem...everything has been done already. Nowadays...a drop a verse...first response...played out punchlines...like wtf?
I drop a punchline on b2k about him talkin bout "u got served"...Then dixie normous accusin me of biting? like...nothin is really original now...

i could say sumthin like...I dunno...
"The sun sets in the west, that's why I always end shit
Im Like Jenna Jame's partners...Im the one makin the hits!"

^Even tho I have never read it before...somebody has probably already used it...

FL has over 50 battles a day...

As much as we would love to, we can't.

Many users use the same IP's, on a rotating system, like AOL.

OutCome 02-06-04 10:12 AM

no wonder this place is wack, you allow Aol

Ban that whole fucking system, i mean shit this is suppose to be underground...

All you people that are saying RB.com is in a 'depression' or whatever, are morons. Right now we are averaging more users per day than at anytime this site was up. The whole point of this thread, wasn't that RB.com is dying, it was that the talent on the site has gone down.

Mister Mind 02-06-04 12:46 PM

i think they mean talent depression.

This guy thinks I suck so bad...

He must consider me Al Bundy...

Well, the way this bitch constantly follows my posts around...

Throwing worthless jabs at me all the time...

I guess that'd make him Peg Bundy, wouldn't it.

So, I guess Cave's my bitch...

By his own actions.

If that's the case, I'd rather be in a talent depression, then a user depression. Even if the 'vets' think that the sites talent has long left, at least the site still has members to keep it up and running.

Born To Kill 02-06-04 12:54 PM

Whatever...

It's an age old battle no one will ever win...

That's like me bitching that the 70's Steelers...

Were better than the 80's 49er's...

And then bitching that the 90's Cowboys were better than them.

And so on, and so on, and so on...

The outcome will never be known...

So shut the fuck up with saying we suck now...

We do just fine.
