If you been out the loop for a while regarding "the cage", which again, they've been doing for a decade, watch Quantum vs JC. A top 10 all time battle and the cage makes it so much more fire because it gets utilized in their bars. Quantum 30d him.

Again, salute to yall for always putting on for the culture, no matter what. Yall are easily a top 5 league with classics on top of classics imo and deserve all the flowers and accolades that come with it. Yall are up there with URL, RBE, KOTD, etc. And considering I mentioned the Quantum/JC battle, I know yall know I been rocking with yall for a decade. Hope to see a lot more from yall in '25 because this most recent event was without question a top 10 event for the year. Maybe top 5. Absolutely fire. Keep grinding.

Hallow must have realized URL crowds don't appreciate his creativity anymore so he took his show on the road and I'm here for it

URL likes the more simplistic rhymes not that intricate word play. The crowds don't react because you have to know what and who they referring to sometimes without them mentioning a name, place, or thing. It's definitely difficult to keep up sometimes and sometimes it's a lot of fluff 😂 but kats like Daylyt, Hollow, and Lux just got a different vibe and it's applaudable 👏🏾
