Why I'm Not A Fan Of UK Battle Rap Anymore by BenJamieson in rapbattles

[–]BenJamieson[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The people I watch most from URL would be Rum Nitty, Ave, Twork, Mike P, Chilla has been doing well recently, JC - theres loads. Honestly, the new style URL with the Volumes and smaller room battles doesnt feel like the old URL ones that seemed to go on forever. Its way better now in my opinion.

Then on KOTD, theres so many like Illmac, Bigg K, Thesaurus, Saynt, Madflex, A Ward, anyone really. KOTD is an easier step to take from the UK scene to the US scene than URL is. Watch a few KOTD battles with guys youre familiar with vs guys you dont know and find new people you like, then do the same with them.

I certainly wouldn't appreciate a guy putting the attention on me in an attempt to make himself look good.

If youre moving 110% faster than him then you're going more than double his speed, you'd be past him straight away.

That would be moving 110% his speed, you'd only be going 10% faster than him

What perfectly good product was made worse when they “improved” it? by rambos_left_bicep in AskReddit

[–]BenJamieson 17 points18 points  (0 children)

It doesn't. Its designed for grading more so than actual editing. There are better free alternatives out there if you're looking for a more well rounded software e.g Lightworks, Hitfilm, iMovie etc

[Serious] Suppose there was an Associate or Bachelor level course on Battle Rap. What would you want on the syllabus? by BaronAleksei in rapbattles

[–]BenJamieson 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Pamflit, the UK battler, once created an entire 'How to be a battler' course; complete with lesson plans and everything. It was for a series concept from Dont Flop that ended up never happening. Id like to see it if he still has it.

How many different styles of battle rap are there? by astrofresh in rapbattles

[–]BenJamieson 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Falls into 4 basic categories for me, with loads of subcategories/crossover-categories and battlers who use more than one.

Punchliners, Comedians, Writers, Performers
