Continuing consecutive shows featuring Slaughterhouse emcees, the AngryFans Radio Show interviewed Joell Ortiz yesterday to talk about his view on the Battle Rap scene, why he thinks Joe Budden isn’t necessarily at a disadvantage against Hollow Da Don, and some of his favorite battle emcees.
Asked directly if he’s considered stepping into the Battle Rap arena, Ortiz said he’d consider the possibility but hinted that it would be a surprise announcement.
“I don’t know, man,” he said. “I’m thinking about it. If I do, I’ll just pop up. I don’t wanna give none of them dudes time to prepare, so I’ll just call’em out…If I do it, I ain’t announcing it months in advance, though. Niggas could write 150 bars, scribble, scrabble. Figure it out. If I call you out, let’s just do it. Let’s both go off the top.”
Addressing the shift away from freestyle battling of yesteryear, Joell hinted at some criticism for rappers that can’t rhyme on call.
“Somebody gotta have something on deck,” he said. “You telling me if the opportunity present itself and somebody that could change your life says, ‘Rhyme.’ You gon’ say, ‘Yo, let me go home. I’ll get right back to you on Tuesday?’”
Speaking on his fellow Slaughterhouse emcee’s planned battle against Hollow Da Don, Joell Ortiz explained feeling like “the event itself means more than everything.”
“I don’t know if it’s doing something for it other than giving it a bigger stage in my opinion,” he said of the possible effects the battle might have on Battle Rap at large. “Not just the battle rappers tuning in now. Now the overall Hip Hopper is trying to see what’s going on. In my opinion now it’s just, alright, who’s gonna be the better emcee? You get what I’m saying? The word ‘battle’ kind of leaves a little bit. It only stays around because it’s a competition between two dudes that are rhyming. It turned into an emcee thing. I’m not saying that battlers have never been emcees. But not it’s shedding light on it. Now someone’s getting in the ring that has kind of shaded more towards making records and being more of an emcee putting out album, doing that sort of work rather than touring the battle circuit. If Joe wins, it means a lot. If Joe loses, it means a lot. The event itself means more than everything.
“The thing that these young kids fail to realize is that the pillars, the pioneers of this culture that they love so much, they still tune in,” he said. “It’s no way in hell KRS-One won’t know what’s going on. He was there. It began with him. If you think he don’t know that Joe is battling Hollow something is wrong with you. If you think Kane ain’t going to be seeing that niggas got bars something is wrong with you…I can’t even express it. I ain’t gon’ be the guy that says, ‘Yo, ya’ll niggas need to do your history’ and shit like that. If you love it, if you love it and everything that comes with it, then wouldn’t you wanna know about it? I’m a Yankees fan. I wanted to see Mickey Mantle’s stats. I didn’t come up with him. I just wanna know who’s the best Yankee. They say Jeter was ill let me see what Gehrig was. I just wanna know what it was.”
Disagreeing with fans and critics who claim that Joe Budden will be at a disadvantage, Ortiz went on to say that “Joe might be able to outwit him on the way he approaches it.”
“There’s a separation thing between dudes who rap and dudes who emcee,” he said. “Emcee dudes, you can throw them in any setting and the party is rocked. That means from the smallest venue in the world with 200 people in an intimate setting and everybody tuned in ‘cause they wanna hear you backpack to the biggest arena…That’s what emcees do. I feel like Joe is an emcee. Now, he’s going up against one of the—[Hollow’s] gotta be Top 3 to everybody on the battle scene right now. This is gonna be epic. I wanna see how someone who sharpens their pen constantly can pick their brain on battles and things that are clever and how to rock crowds which is a form of emceeing—and I’m speaking on Hollow—how that is gonna measure up against somebody who constantly picks themselves and goes at their brain to come up with song concepts and cadences and melodies and flows and choruses. This is gonna be a battle. I see a lot of people they just like, ‘Joe is stepping in Hollow’s ring though.’ I understand, but I don’t think it’s Hollow’s ring. I think it’s an emcee’s ring. It might be Hollow’s stage, but I think that Joe might be able to outwit him on the way he approaches it. There’s too many things you gotta pay attention to in that ring.”
During the interview, Ortiz also listed some of his own favorite battlers.
“Lux and Hollow off the rip you gotta put in there,” he said. “I’m personally a fan of Daylyt. That’s just me, though. I think he hasn’t gotten nowhere near his ceiling. That’s what people fail to realize. He got bars. You gotta read into ’em, but he got bars and I think he’s getting better. Let me see, that’s three. You know who impressed me? T-Rex impressed me. I can’t really say what’s going on. T-Rex impressed me. Ya’ll will see why I threw him in there. I’m just saying, man. For so long, in my opinion, he lived in Mook’s shadow. I feel like during Total Slaughter he gave himself a face. I don’t know, man. I don’t wanna reach. You know who I like, too? That young boy JC.”
“You niggas have to merge to even come close to fighting this type of monster,” Daylyt says in a general message to Battle Rap league owners. “Eminem has released the fucking Kraken.”
In a recently released video blog, battle rapper Daylyt called out Battle Rap leagues across the map and advised them to merge their leagues or face marginalization in the industry given the upcoming debut of the Eminem-backed “Total Slaughter” tournament event.
“Dear everybody who owns a Battle Rap league,” Daylyt said, “Battle Rap is all a poker game. It’s all a poker game. Everybody is at the table playing poker. Eminem has just sat down at the poker table. We all know the guy with the most money more than likely is gonna [beat] everybody because he’s never gonna quit. Dear everyone who owns a Battle Rap league, you guys only have one option to even compete with this type of player. Smack, you need Organik. Organik, you need Smack. Don’t Flop, you need Smack. All of you niggas need to get together and form Captain Planet because you are fighting a monster that is way bigger than what you possibly think you can do to beat them. You need to form The Avengers to beat this shit because you are not—I repeat—you are not going to beat Total Slaughter by ya’ll dolo. It is a mission that is impossible. You are not going to tackle by [yourselves]. There is no more ‘World’s Most Respected.’ That shit is out the window. You niggas have to merge to even come close to fighting this type of monster. Eminem has released the fucking Kraken. You are not going to beat this type of monster fighting dolo, shooting small bow and arrows at this type of monster nigga.”
Addressing SMACK DVD Troy “Smack” Mitchell, Daylyt said seeing him appear at a King of the Dot event is “probably the greatest picture I have ever seen in Battle Rap.”
“Smack, you just went over there to King of the Dot and stood on stage,” he said. “No lie, that picture that you have on the stage with King of the Dot is probably the greatest picture I have ever seen in Battle Rap. Yo bro, real nigga to real nigga, man to man, and this is from Black brother to Black brother, my brother, lower your pride. Lower your ego—this not to Smack himself but the whole URL movement—lower your pride. Lower your ego. Fuck that, ‘I’m the best.’ Merge bro. Merge with King of the Dot for Summer Madness. Summer Madness card should be King of the Dot and Summer Madness together. That is the only way you guys are gonna fight this.”
Near the end of the video, Daylyt addressed the possibility that Eminem would offer some battlers an exclusive retainer offer that other leagues can’t compete with.
“All of ya’ll need to come together because these motherfuckers have the money to buy all of us out,” he said. “What if Eminem goes, ‘Yo, Lux, here’s $600,000. Don’t battle ever again nowhere else…Here’s a $100,000 Chilla [Jones]. We’re going to lock you in for five years.’ These niggas gonna take it. Listen to me, man. Everybody cut the egos. Cut the beef. Join together for the sake of Hip Hop and for the sake of underground Hip Hop. Join together or else it’s over, man. It’s over. That’s real nigga shit.”
Daylyt's always been a real ass dude. And he makes a great point here, especially at the end. These top-tier battle MC's are making maybe $50,000 a year. So it would take nothing for Em to reserve them all to his league exclusively for the next decade if he so chose to.Yoda wrote:Daylyt Says Battle Rap Leagues Need To Unify To Compete Against Eminem’s “Total Slaughter”
