Chris Brown Hosts Surprise URL Battles At His Mansion

URL promised that October would be huge for battle rap and with the announcement of the Drake card, “Til Death Do Us Part, it doesn’t get much bigger than that. Or does it?

It does when you are the worldwide leaders of the emcee battle culture. How do you top the Drake card? You pull up to Chris Brown’s home and have a couple of battles there!

R&B superstar Chris Brown hosted the battles and was front and center throughout the, alongside URL’s Smack White and URL Princess, Nunu Nellz. He stepped up to do the coin flips to determine who would start the first battle and said what the URL.TV movement is doing for the culture is crazy.

Fonz vs. Lu Castro

Lu Castro and Fonz are two of the newer stars on the URL roster. Both emcees had their breakout year following appearances in the first Ultimate Madness Tournament in the summer of 2020.
