SPANISH HARLEM CHARGES SMACK W/ Practicing "WAVE LAW" STOPPING BATTLES From BECOMING CROSSOVER STARS 

The katt Williams of battle rap

THE GREATEST INTERVIEW OF ALL TIME

I see Spanish Harlem, and I click. Shout out Hhir for another GEM

Why do small minds think you CAN'T make profit, and I mean a lot, while also providing equitable compensation?? We keep saying "this is business" but that's BAD business, i.e. the traditional capitalist business model that hasn't proven to be effective thus far. Be leery when the oppressed become the oppressor. Exploitation should not exist in battle rap, especially when we reject that same exploitation in the music industry.

He is right about big business and corporations

🎯🎯🎯he made all valid points would love to hear Aye verb & Spanish Harlem talk about this topic 🎯🎯🎯🎯

Salute to knowledge for dropping the part two in a timely manner..It was dope chatting with you at the black mafia event💯💯💯💯…

Salute 🫡 to HHIR & Spanish Harlem

What happened was SMACK and Beasley don’t care what the battlers get because they are millionaires. Everything else is secondary

Spanish Harlem for President of Battle Rap

Just because the league owner is Rich. Does not mean they will pay you enough for you to get Rich. get your own business. Outside of battle Rap to get Paid what you want.✔️

He speaking business facts

Oh wow this shit is deep 😅💯

So he basically saying at the beginning that part of the reason that Surf got jammed up was because he was getting too big, without saying it outright! And not saying it was from Smack himself, but the guilt got him staying close and making visits and keeping his name on his tongue!🧐

So they over analyzing the whole situation. The reality is smack don't care about being bigger than the battlers. Smack and Beasley just want to continue to make the biggest bag. The guys they let flourish all contribute to sustaining there bottom line. Battlers who understand there worth create the problems.

They cooking

Leon S Kennedy boul

Anybody that say at the end of the day a million times is a crook A blind man can see smack is a crook

We need to come together and stop fighting each other over money and business decisions “let work together for the benefit of everyone black “ and stop being selfish

Hhir paid this dude $100 for this interview and that’s more than he ever got for any battle 😂

This is why they made the app and why eazy left.

Basically, Smack made enough money now to were battlerap iis supportung his life style and thats all he cares about now at this point.. maintaining that lifestyle by any means. Even if it means having a bunch of hopefull people in a hamster wheel.. throwing there lives away. He gonna milk the game before he get out. Cz maybe in his mind at some point battle rap might come to an end. And the what.

Spanish is real 🔥🔥🔥

They took surf off the board before he crossed over and became the next Dolph. He should’ve got away from URL but they used his loyalty to keep him hostage and his gang mentality to treat URL competition like opps instead off doing good business and expanding his brand.

Dame Dolla speaking sum facts tho

P has to be biased!! cause how they pushed Sole & Footz more then Ish Mula & Gwitty .. Respectfully they not pushing Talent they pushing their " Friends " cause Ish Mula would beat both Sole & Footz easy and I'm not even a Ish fan..

He wants Smack to be a leader and baby these grown men to stardom, then hand them off to someone else to grow their stardom even more even if he goes into the red. And what does he ask of the battle rapper? Nothing. lol.

Yo I LIKE PEOPLE LIKE HIM ONLY FAX NO CAP

All this is interesting and most of it is facts....But let's be totally honest. Had Spanish wouldv gotten his shot on URL likehe was promised, and done well, would we even be hearing this "game" or these jewels being dropped?? Or would he continued to rap and became a part of the system he's bucking?🤔

I cant let my fiancé and girlfriends listen to this.🤷🏿‍♂️

Dude sounds like a hater

Am I tripping or is his ring changing fingers throughout the interview ? 😂

Verb said it 1st

He looking for a handout

Spanish Harlem is really mid

Oh URL gon be mad at Knowledge

I’ve been waiting 2years for Spanish interview to resume. Y’all dropped that 1st gem and disappeared. I thought HHIR became compromised. Salute for being true media Knowledge

Spanish Harlem!

This Interview Should Be At A Mil In A Few Days.I Think This Is One Of HHIR Greatest Interviews.Only The Real BR Fans Understand.These New BRF Don't Have A Clue Fr.New BRF It's All Documented.Yall Just To Lazy To Do Y'all Research.So Y'all Believe Whatever Y'all Hear.#SpanishHarlemGreatInterview

He right industry ppl started asking for Shine battles ..

If every battle rapper thought like Harlem than battlerap would be UNSTOPPABLE 🤷🏾‍♀️

I really hope battlers are paying attention. Knowledge might not ever get another Smack or Beasley interview

29:21 dude was preaching and maybe that’s why caffeine left.

Spanish Harlem really will make you think! Great interview we need more of this type of talk 💯🔥🔥

You and Spanish need to do more segments together on everything battle rap and hip-hop 🤔

I bet Beasley was like "Damn glad that Spanish Harlem guy stopped blowing up our bad business practices to the culture". Just to get a notification with that title and Spanish Harlem in the thumbnail 😂😂😂😂

I would love to see Harlem and verb sit down for this topic on my expert opinion.

S.H is well educated on this topic.. Salute

I watched this whole joint, dude making alotbof sense

TALK Heavy

I NEVER REALIZED HOW DUXB BATTLE RAP MEDIA /BLOGGERS ARE UNTIL I WATCHED THIS....😂😂...REAL RAP...ITS REFRESHING TO SAY THE LEAST ‼️

Wise brother

If "it's no fun when the rabbit has the gun" was a battle league!! It'll be URL! Because was a hard core fan turned into i don't even watch/ not interested and at best a very very very casual viewer! URL allowed greed to sink their ship & the culture! ijs (Buddy on point too! It's mere logic.)

El Barrio coming with the knowledge.

Gotta give it up for knowledge on this one … he is fair

19:42 - 20:49 was very real !

💎

He preaching

Would love to hear him and Verb talk

Knowledge, you got permission from Beas for this and STILL gonna get scolded

The more I listen he start spitting facts I take back my other comment now

Exactly. URL does EVERYTHING they can to hold their Artists back from reaching true success outside of URL. The relationships & opportunities they try and block… It’s disgusting.

he from the wack dmv he not from harlem

this exactly what DNA did to K Shine!! When K Shine & URL were going back and fourth he played the middle man so he won't lose his cut but if that was your " bro " why not side with him. If I was K Shine I won't be friend him again cause DNA moves funny. I'm from the Q and while back D & Clips threw an event in Queens bunch of Qu up and comers tried getting on that card but DNA ain't even look they're way smh had dudes from other boroughs ,boy be moving funny

Y'all mad at Math but this is what he was talking about, I get platforms gotta create content but when you give a platform to somebody that's talking bad about me, then why would I want you around me? Now how does Smack feel about this? Smack is supposed to be happy go lucky on HHIR after people constantly get a platform to bash him? Respectfully......

Nothing in his words put any onus on the artist getting themselves to the next level or what’s after or beyond battle rap. He also think Smack should be still going in the red 20 years later

It was cool when the URL was using Caffeine’s money to pay battle rappers. And at that time every battle rapper was pretty much worth the money to be booked. Now they’re trying to tell the industry and the battlers that the money isn’t out there no more. Oh it was also cool when Twork was choking most of his battles at that time. And when Surf was coming with only two rounds. That’s because it wasn’t there money. Now that they have to use there own money we’re not seeing as many battles. So honestly speaking it’s really a good thing that some of the top talents that isn’t in the URL shouldn’t be there for this matter. Just look at all of these battle rappers that ain’t working as often now. That’s because they are only for self. This is why we’re now seeing Tay Roc battling more than usual and battling people he shouldn’t be battling at this stage of his career. He wants to continue making the money he was used to getting when the getting was good. This guy Spanish Harlem knows what he’s talking about and I’ve been listening to him. This is why I can’t understand why the artist doesn’t get it being in the culture. So to speak

I'll be honest... That league dropped him vs Twork... He won, and he mentioned the fight, but guess what... Nobody watched and he wasn't that crazy. These ninjas that be crying need to start considering that the fans are the ones who don't rock; not URL

Sometimes people be too smart on dumb things

I like Spanish Harlems approach. They’re so many real life specific examples over the last 20+ years

So you retired because they would not give you What you want, you could have just went to another league🤦🏾‍♂️😂🤣

Lol yall funny all the big names that rapped on url had big enough names to rap anywhere. Just like the commercial industry, if you already got a following on your own, you can walk away from BS deals. Mook, loaded, clips, goodz, roc, jon jon, Ars, hitman, cal, etc can all do what they want

Spanish needs a BR pod. I dont know how many BR would come on tbh.

He new surf is and was a threat and ig following🤣

Url got surf locked up

Can outshine the master

Beasley gon be mad at Knowledge for this

No more Diva-building making Joe Blow famous only to have them taste a Lil fame, ego trip and drive up the price ceiling while backbiting the whole time. Forget biting the hand, y'all nibbling on the fingernails now. YT a few battles here and there but the App is where it's at 💵 💯

Wild that he wants Smack to be self serving but battlers should be the complete opposite. I do agree they need to give battlers more exposure outside of the app which they started doing by dropping old battles.

talked about a bounce of nothing all i heard: If you hit a man, in time his wounds will heal. If you steal from a man, you can replace what you've stolen. But always cross in the green, never in between. Because the honorable Elijah Muhammad Ali floats like a butterfly and stings like a bee. And always remember my brother, one fish, two fish, red fish, blue fish, knick knack, paddy whack, give a dog a bone, two thousand, zero, zero, party, oops! Out of time, my bacon smellin' fine.

He saying a whole bunch of nothing!!!

This is a great example of sounding real smart, but not really saying nothing.....Knowledge...I'm not to sure of yours and this guys business acumen 🤔 he saying a lot of nothing and u are condoning it

I've known that Smack was doing this for years but there's nothing that anyone can do about it He owns his company and if he drives it into the ground it's his choice sadly

But wen smack wus bein “unk” they treated him any kinda way talk to him crazy in blogs now he a “business man” n y’all want Unk back lol

🐟, 🐟🐠

Dude move on, they not rockin with you.. Battle rap is small community, and people really don't care that much tbh

i don’t understand shit he says

It’s been 5 years and he still whining because he didn’t make it. Smack changed lives
