RAP GRID'S LIVE COVERAGE OF #BO4
*BREAKING NEWS* - THE FOLLOWING BATTLES MAY NOT TAKE PLACE
Ill Will vs Real Deal
JC vs Rone
Big T vs Bender
Shotty Horroh vs Aye Verb
Osa vs RemyD
Rich Dolarz vs Loe Pesci
Official update from RapGrid's @JonReiss:
Reporting from Blackout on the afternoon before day 2 there's been a lot of talk about what battles will and will not go down. These reports change from hour to hour but the party line on a few of them has remained pretty much the same. Since only 5 battles took place last night BO4 will be back loaded with the majority of battles taking place tonight. The question is. which battles will go down. For each rapper mentioned below there's another rapper here that's supposed to battle them that we also won't get to see. Here's a few that may be in jeopardy.
King of the Dot deserves a lot of slack and respect for really working hard to counteract the Murphy's Law nature of these cancellation. They've really been hammering away to try and beat the odds.
Big T Vs. Bender- Big T and KOTD has been really trying to make this battle happen. A blizzard is apparently what's keeping him from getting to out of the states. For the past 2 days, this battle of all the potentially cancelled battles was the one people were saying had the best chance of happening. Last I heard, it's not likely Big T Vs. Bender will not go down this weekend, but perhaps soon after.
Aye Verb- I've been told there's a chance he might get to Canada in time for the event. Apparently it's an issue of Aye Verb receiving a passport in time, which he hasn't yet. The KOTD staff says that they will make his happen even if they have to do it on Monday. Aye Verb's opponent is in town for the week so the plan is to record it on Monday if they must and release it anyone who bought PPV or tickets ASAP.
Ill Will- Also put himself out there to try and get to Blackout. In fact he was willing to risk being held at the border upon return for the good of the culture. However, a recent video on YouTube has exacerbated his situation and made crossing the border to precarious for him at the moment.
Rich Dollaz- Was actually here in Toronto when he found out about a death in his family and had to fly right back. At first there was some question as to what really went down but this story has been verified as legitimate.
JC- This is new to me but I'm hearing he might be having some difficulty getting here, something about transportation. This is just a rumor at this point.
RemyD- This seems to have folks a bit perturbed. Remy had a car accident while QP was in the car, however, fans and spectators assert that the damage was light and didn't warrant pulling out of the event.
