    I think we should be tryn to nominate other artists 1st.

    Gets boring dealing with the same 5 artists every week.

    I think the lack of thread participation has proven that.

    This series started off great but in recent weeks is lucky to get to page 2

    I've used Common "Use to love her" in one of the battle Royals. I believe it got slapped around. I shoulda used my fav by him which is 6th sense but DJ Premier to my disappointment in the IC is like 0-5 so that's also the problem with using Royce's "Boom" which I absolutely love! Cam just recently got a run a few weeks ago, well the dipset anyway. I also used Souls of Mischief I think that same week I used use to love her and they both lost to Pete Rock I believe. Kanye, Eminem, Fugees, Game and Tribe have all been in my mind for the near future but I was tryna think of songs outta they catalog that wouldn't get blown away. Everybody else on that list I love them but I think they would struggle to get votes.

    But see this is where you guy's the IC comes in. That's why I idealistically don't want to come up with the Challenger every week. We can get those different type of artist once I throw you cats the keys! I even want to put some J Cole or Drake type newer cats joints on here but the songs that have been Champs so far have been so savage I want it to be fair. I mean I involved two Kendrick songs that barely could get a vote so it's not very easy. Outkast one of the best Groups in history and they lost so bad I was almost offended for them. * shrugs *

    For me I would go 100 % dundee easily.....But the way Things have been going I bet "Can I Live" (which I repeat, imo ain't even the best 3 joints on RD) will win 15 to probably 5 with three of those five dundee votes coming in after I'm ready to wave the white flag for it type ? .

    To me...so far one of the best weeks was when "Streiht up Menace" first one. That upset made me have respect and hope for hip hop.

    No more of them battle royals, if you ain't gonna reuse songs that lost.

    I'm sure there were probably 2 or 3 that would've smoked Can I Live.

    But you tag the whole site tho, something I don't be having time to do. It's gonna look like its popping more when you get the keys. I'm not mad at it tho, That's why I like your weeks because by hook or by crook you get that participation outta ? . @its....JOHN B weeks are cool too because I think 95 percent of the time champs are knocked off he the one that do it. There are strengths and weaknesses in all of our weeks. (BTW my last two weeks doing it it's been close)

    They just seem like it because votes be like 6-3 when I do it Lol

    Getting ? to vote is clearly not my strong point. I'm using classic songs though so I won't say the songs are sub par, I mean you act like I'm posting Cardi B or some ? , I'm posting stuff from DJ Premier, songs from Snoops ? album, songs wit Nas Lyrics, street stuff like shook ones and in the near future ima move it to more club banger type ? . And nothing real crazy wack about the songs bruh it's just like a voter said...end of the day there are levels to this.
