CLAB 2012 Rant

I wanna start off by saying big ups to Rav on the battle. Dude did his research and came spittin fire.

However, I've got to take a couple issues with your synopsis of me.

Before that, though:

I battle on Newgrounds for the same reason I post anything here: to learn. How better to grow than to get another person's perspective? What we intend to portray is not always what is perceived. I've put myself on blast about everything I do in the hopes of avoiding an exposure, expecting my opponents to Google me and have a lot of material for personals, thus making for a more interesting battle. Please believe, unless I know you, I'll usually do the same. ;)

For the last two years though, there has been very little researching going on in these battles so I've felt kinda weird digging into my opponents lives. I didn't do that this year, initially because we were supposed to hurry with our Pre-Round battles, then I got cocky.

Lessons Learned
>Don't post random webcam videos. (sudo killprocess: camwhore.js)
>Still can't say nig... uh... "the n word". Dammit...
>Consider the audience. Thanks Mickey
>Don't label myself. My Self is my label

===SOME FACTS N SHIT===

>I am not, never was and will never be a gangster rapper. Period. I'm a fuckin nerd, duh?
>Any gun references I ever make are referring to verbal bullets. Vocal Gunslinger
>I haven't been able to LARP bc of work since before the Winter Battles. >_<
>I try to think of life outside the box. I'm never claimed to be Nietzche or a Buddha. Call it what you will.

Anyway, this is probably going to be my last online competition. Just so everyone knows, if we've ever battled, it's going on a mixtape. After the jump.

Well, you can bet that if I get past Jakobe I'll be researching you. However, there is a limit to it, because if anything, the KillBill battle taught me that people are pretty lazy about research, so if you say something in a rhyme that is not readily accessible, it will fly over the heads of some voters and you'll lose.

Yeah, and instead of the n-word, why don't you just not say "envelope" a whole lot? They're both words, so if you focus all your attention on how you can't not say "envelope," you'll lose your need to say "n***a."

Penny for my thoughts, just gave u my 2 cents. That means I'm down one penny. Fuck.

Yeah, that's one of the first tactics one learns if they're serious. Glad to have ya in the comp sport.

I don't say nigga to be racist or gangster. It's just funny seeing how people react to the taboo. One could call this emotional manipulation or trolling, but I think of it as a social experiment.

See ya in there tiger.

I am I your only audience now? D: awkwardness...

Oh no! Is there another Mickey you're not telling me about ? :O
