RULES
Round 1: 90 seconds or less
Participants shall record themselves spitting theirs verses on camera. It can be with any kind of camera, but keep in mind that the quality of the overall recording will factor into people's judgements. The person sending in each battle will determine whether it is over a beat or acapella. If someone sends to you on a beat, you MUST respond on a beat or face disqualification and auto-loss. Likewise, if someone sends to you spitting acapella, you MUST respond with acapella or face disqualification and auto-loss. There will be a full week between rounds. Verses are written (unless you prefer to freestyle).
Contestants will upload their submission on their YouTube channels, then drop the links into a text battle. This way, LB can vote on it. Winners will be determined by LB voting results, not YouTube comments. Round 1 opens on November 14th 2013 (Only send on or AFTER this date). *Between now and the 14th, all contestants must check in or you may be replaced on the roster. Deadline to send is by 11:59 PM Eastern Time on November 21st. Deadline to respond is by 11:59 PM Eastern Time on November 22nd.
Once you've sent, paste the link here or alert me by private message.
The time limits do not include whatever intros or graphical depictions you would like to include in your submission. It only restricts the actual time you spend on your verse.
All participants are encouraged to vote on every battle in this tourney. If you posted and your opponent doesn't post, you'll automatically advance to the next round.
BATTLES
Either left or right may send first. Keep in mind that whoever sends will determine the format of the battle (whether its acapella or on a beat). Whoever opens the private text battle first with their link will be considered the sender. In the event of a double no-show, left will be considered the loser and right will advance.

Thanks fam!

[NOBLE]

If we don't get more submissions by the deadline (tonight) I'm cancelling the tourney. 32 sign ups, only 6 submissions and 1 completed battle. This is a waste of my time and effort.
I'll just write back the company and tell them LB ain't ready for their sponsorship.
People complain that we don't have any cash tournaments and when we throw one, they no-show. Smh.

[Leroy Brown]

Next time just give me 16 names to send to..save yourself the trouble...this is just a bad look cuz we got a actual sponsor for the event..but it is what it is, every tourney I been in is half no shows so can't say I'm surprised

[The Ghost of Freak]

NOBLE , I threw together my submission and its ready to post… how do I get it to you? (I rather not post in under my real name on youtube). Its also 1:26.

[tyco RC]

i been checkin this for a few days just to listen and aint nobody postin im disappointed. signn up for the next torney im makin sure i sign up for. cant believe ppl aint postin tho especially cuz its a sponsored joint.

[stricc]

sorry NOBLE

[John J]

dosent look like my guy is showing... when is round 2?

[John J]

whoever opens with a a capella just consider yourself wack

shit im wacker then wack then.. haha.. hope i get you next

[Leroy Brown]

shit im wacker then wack then.. haha.. hope i get you next

haha i'd be down for that...why everybody scared to use beats for?

[The Ghost of Freak]

haha i'd be down for that...why everybody scared to use beats for?

Leroy Brown , Might just be Timmyv, you and me dropping over a beat this round, which makes me think I might go acapella next round…. assuming I make it... XD

-FREAK-

---------- Post added at 03:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:31 PM ----------

NOBLE , some of these are over 1:30, which is not following the rules of the tourney… Its one thing if a few extra seconds are used for a call out or disclaimer, but having extra bars is not fair or cool.

If you write too much, then edit…

I suggest a warning, if not a DQ, but its up to you.

-FREAK-

[X Paces]

i used to hate acapella

[I AM EGO]

So yeah, is this cancelled? I've already replied to my battle. It's being voted on. Why do people sign up for a big competition like this then no show? Irritates me.

[The Ghost of Freak]

There is no post saying this tournament is or was cancelled.

[Aggo]

Damn, hopefully this doesn't fall through. I'm hopin to break through on the audio side soon and would love these type of opportunities. Don't fuck this shit up.

[Vegeta]

Bnas my battle is complete. NOBLE replaced my opponent since erupt no-showed. I sent mine to IamThugBro and he replied too.

[Thugasanti]

^^what he said :high:

[127839764]

checkin in.

[127839764]

http://www.letsbeef.com/battle_details.php?section=tb&id=469541

NOBLE

[Leroy Brown]

it's only 2 battles open for votes...ego vs darkness and bnas vs nocky

[Thugasanti]

leroybrown me vs robinhood is also open for votes fam.

Someone should make a thread with all the open video battles,ill give a fair breakdown on all of them.

[I AM EGO]

I won against the darkness, yet Noble isn't updating this thread. I'm confused and gonna be a little pissed if I did it for nothing hahaha.

[Leroy Brown]

Wait for the other battles to close out

[127839764]

such a sad sad turnout.

[John J]

The amount of no shows is a bit disrespectful.. the email we all got was a plea to please show since this is being put together by hiphop bling... it makes the site look bad yes.. but it makes the artist look even worse... we all do this for fun so whats the big deal to take 20 mins of your life and spit 16?

[The Ghost of Freak]

Nocky , Bnas , John J I agree that its a sad turn out, but at least those of us who did drop kept it going, so lets just make sure to have a solid second round of complete battles rather than all these half sent half no show cases.

RESPECT

[The Ghost of Freak]

NOBLE , when does round 2 start? Is tourney still going?

[Thugasanti]

I won my battle against ROBINHOOD_Returns too. So when does the second round drop? Sun God NOBLE

[X Paces]

WTF is going on. Its not the fault of those who submitted an entry...We should know the status of the tourney. I don't care so much for the prizes, just wanna battle again and possibly win A tourney. C'mon Son!

[stricc]

if i were NOBLE id be disgusted by tha turnout too. dude be comin out his own pocket to help promote for lb just to have people no-show...not to mention tha fact that he told everyone else in advance that there was a sponsor...cant even be mad at anybody but tha no-show list

[Obey]

I hope this isn't the real reason he stepped down. Sad to see all the time that was put into this and people walking all over it. No shows should result in some type of punishment.

[Thugasanti]

i want this to happen man,just get someone to replace the no showing faggit,i replaced erupt and battled this robinhood character.

really wish that the second round pops off soon

[John J]

haha i'd be down for that...why everybody scared to use beats for?

i dont think any one is scared but 2 reasons i didnt was one to keep it true to the battle form two, im not sure how good people can hear me with a beat on over a cam...

[Leroy Brown]

I always battled over beats when I was coming up so I guess that's what I'm used to.

[Thugasanti]

I dont mind doing one over beat,Infact I prefer to spit on a beat rather than doing it accapela but I literally have no fucking idea how to sync my audio with the video,i tried playing the beat when I was recording my video,but the sound quality was horrendous.

[HellaHardBeatz~RRR]

Can we still send them in or what? this tournament is very confusing

[The Ghost of Freak]

NOBLE and Pugz , Is Bars4Bling still going on or is it cancelled?

Those of us who showed would like to know. No hate. Thanks again for hosting.

-FREAK-

[WHITZ]

http://www.letsbeef.com/battle_details.php?section=tb&id=470125
if this show is still on the go.. finally had a day off and had a minute to drop this..

[Vegeta]

STRAIGHT AWAY ONE SHOULD GIVE INFRACTIONS TO NO SHOWERS

[Doc T]

Ill use a beat next round just for you leroy! Haha

[X Paces]

Who said there is going to be a next round?

[I AM EGO]

This is getting ridiculous, no hate or offense meant when I say can we PLEASE be updated on what's going on?!

[X Paces]

Yeah, I think in this case it works both ways. Upset about the turnout etc. , but then no info about the tournament at all for those who did submit entries. Kinda takes some wind out of the sails that seemed to be ready to blow. The silence was stern. We get it! NOBLE RULE Pugz. I dont' know yall like that to even speculate too much but, I think some people were hoping that this might have been a start of "something". And like I said before, not sure if yall got my msgs, but I am available to assist in any way that I can to help this site move forward. Sometimes it seems like someone is just sitting back enjoying somewhat controlling a part of many peoples lives. C'mon son! It all might just be a memory someday. There are live battles in damn near every metro area that most people on this site could really be a part of, but like I told them incrowd cats, there's just something about doing things online, look at E-commerce in general. Ebay! fucking simple ass idea done well and thats all she wrote. How can more money, regardless of how much more, be bad, if you don't even have to put in more work. People love soap operas.

[NOBLE]

Sorry guys, the tournament is cancelled.
