Here's what organik posted on rmbva about some of the battlers not making it

"K, here

Thursday evening.. Remy contacts me an says he got in a car accident.. Says he got a concussion and a ruptured ear drum.. (Waiting for hospital records for my lawyer) still have to pay his opponents travel an accommodation dre's

Rich Dolarz landed and found out. He had a family death while on his flight.. I tried for 2 hours to get him to stay but he left and even left his manager stranded here who I also had to look out for.. Still have to pay his opponents travel an accomidation fees aswell as his payment as he didnt breach.

Big T - been waiting on his passport for weeks. Was supposed to arrive last week but the Midwest snowstorm has shit backed up and they won't tell him any info EVEN tho he paid to have it expedited.. I tried to get him an advanced ID so he can travel on lad and water across the border but apparently you can only obtain them if you live in the state of New York or Michigan.

JC - still hoping to get him here today on a megabus. His driver got detained (dont know why as ive got very little response back.

IllWill - well what can I say, got a last minute warrant for his arrest this week due to an incident alot of people promoted... Again, have to pay for opponents accommodations etc..

Honestly, from the times battles were set up I had border exemption letters sent to everyone. We did everything we could do including informing the border of our event in which some ppl were held until the name 'kingoftheodt' was brought up and they were allowed access...

It's unfortunate but not much we can do. I've been running around trying to solve everything.. This hurts US more then anyone.. From branding to debt to upset fans.. Now I also need to pay a lawyer to take some of them to small claims for breach of contract."

Definitely should have arranged transportation.
 
Well, most of the bigger leagues pay folk transportation and accommodation fees...Plus whatever money just for battling...Plus what they spend on venue, promo, merch...Like these companies really ain't rich like that they pretty much stretch themselves far as they can go...Once MTV or some other big company gets their hands back into battle rap, shit gon change completely...

 
For some of the battlers, it might be good...For the leagues, it might crush them unless they get incorporated...Same way a lot of Smack battlers hopped over to KOTD last year cause they were treated better, or did business with UW cause they did it better...If a large company(aside from BET) with long money and media pull puts together another Fight Klub kinda league...Erbody gon wanna go there cause they'd pay more, have better contracts, more ways of working around errors, etc..When they did it years ago, battling wasn't as popular as it is now...It was more geared towards real heads who would prolly watch just as many real life ciphers as they would DVD/tv battles, but now people of all races, backgrounds, genders, are into the shit and popular battlers have international fame...For the fans...We'd prolly have to begin to expect more pay per views at a higher cost...Lower time limits on rounds...Censored battles, if they end up on tv...Heavier advertisement on YouTube...There would be a split between the underground and the mainstream in battle rap...And at that point whether it's bad or good would be up to each individual to decide...They already workin on a battle rap reality show, and 106 got the UFF, so it's happening right now...The reach of the culture is growing at a rate the leagues can't always keep up with and control by themselves...They need more funding/security, but it's gon come with a price...
 
Damn KOTD got royally FUCKED by life on this one. Might be time to relocate the company state side. Doubt the Canadian rappers would have as many problems getting here as our rappers do getting to them.
 
And then, there's also the fact that the consistently higher paid battlers right now might get between 5 to 10 racks, and they give lazy/incomplete performances with that...If they can start makin double or triple on the regular...It could motivate them to get een sharper, or it could motivate them to just play the game well for the cameras as long as they gettin paid...Just like the recording industry...Lotta niggas start makin real money and the content falls off...But of course, there's artist who genuinely love working on their art...
