He ain't bad at all. His delivery is pretty nice, and his lines are pretty good. Comparing him to Pat Stay, Hollow da Don, or Thesaurus would be entirely unfair tho.

you probably wont get a battle in kotd unless you issue a challenge with money involved. and whos really top tier in kotd? pat stay, pesci, and bender. you really think you will get a chance to battle one of em? you do have a shot to battle people in mid tier like hfk, porich, charron, etc, but again you will have to fly yourself out there with your own money.
now lets move to gt. yeh you have a chance to battle the likes of thesaurus, illmac, diz, real deal etc but only if you pay them. other than that they will not battle you. on the other hand if you are referring to people in mid tier that are "dope" like dlor, and a bunch of others, you may have a chance sometime in the future, but as of right now probably not. you also have to understand that it is extremely difficult to get a battle with a top tier with how unwilling they are to battle someone in mid tier/ bottom tier to begin with. it's also hard to move up from mid tier to top tier these days since everyone is so gassed up on themselves and are afraid to lose.
Bender? Seriously? I feel like Arcane ate him. -_-
And forget URL. -_-...Soul Kahn stopped by URL just to eat everyone there and call it a night. In a white suit.

Sry, but just to point out.
You said 15 years, and 10% you seen, so yea...I'll just throw a few more old heads around for example to show you that your statement is misleading. I only been following it for a little over a year tops...but I've been up on my history.
Pat Stay, Hollow da Don, Mac Lethal, Kid Twist, Thesaurus, Illmaculate, Rone, DNA, Soul Kahn, Passwurdz, Okwerdz, Arsonal, Dumbfounded, Hollohan, Dizaster, Conceited, Real Deal
Honestly...-_-...Philosophist....If you've been following this kinda scene for 15 years, you should know lines by each of these people I named....

i actually don't like bender i'm going by what other people say and apparently people think hes one of the best in kotd. i also thought arcane won that battle. the only people i actually enjoy watching in kotd is pesci, pat stay, and kid twist when hes on his A game.
also soul khan beat two scrubs in his url battles, but im sure if given the opportunity for a top tier battler he would body them as well. even so, url has the top battlers along side gt imo. math, yung ill, hitman holla, hollow, etc an hang with the best of the grind time battlers.
p.s. i think thesaurus is awful right now. he was super nice during his wrc days and his battles against dfd and illmac, but his recent battles have been unbearable

the last 2v2 battle he did with illmac not so long ago (where that guy tried to fight them at the end) in KOTD wasn't that bad...considering how many battles he has done, he is still rocking it imo

I finally got around to watching all the vids, you are awesome!

Sup, got another question. So people are throwing insults around but it looks like they're actually good friends, I mean you gave a shoutout to Cranium in your RC video. My question is: do people sometimes take the insults seriously or are most people for the most part just bros to each other outside of the battles?

Sometimes friends battle friends lol .
I gave out a shout out to Richard Cranium in a somewhat disrespectful way though. I'm not friends with Richard Cranium, I basically said I beat him, and shouted him out for his loss to me :-)
Sometimes they take it seriously, but they shouldn't battle if they do. If your cool with someone, and you agree amongst each other then so be it...
In these leagues your bound to go against friends sometimes.

Tunk can you clarify why this is a valid use of anyone's time? I find it perplexing that people past their teens can enjoy shouting haphazard attacks at each in order to win some kind of "battle". If you can "rap better than me, or anyone i know." then why not put it to better use.

Pretty sure rapping is his way of makin money or his hobby. I know a few of my friends battle rap on weekends to relieve stress and have a good time.

Yea mardi I make money from rap music. :-) Scaramanga you don't understand the art form. This is Hip Hop man.

KOTD seriously needs to accept more overtime rounds -_-

It sounds like this is all foreign to you, so lemme help you out here. No matter what he answers on this you're not going to understand it if you got your mind closed to it from the start. The statements that you dropped about battle rap being a waste of time and effort could easily be said about almost any other adult hobbies or sports that someone's ignorant to. This fills it's own niche, and is a little more fun than stamp collecting, know what I mean?

Lol that was hilarious. Even though half of it sounded pretty bad and made up, the other half was great.

That is why you should check out TheSaurus vs Illmaculate battle. They won 2 championships (I believe) as teammates and friends but they stopped working together for a few years and then made a battle against each other. One of the best battles imo...specially considering the history they have/had, which just makes it more interesting.

I would use personals out of the ass lol...I don't really know Richard Cranium. We just talk from here to there. After I beat him he stormed out of the venue upset.
