That’s why it’s hilarious when people here, now, talk about UPN as having a style or there being some kind of beef or something... it’s dumb as hell. UPN was a mixture of all of the styles that were around back then. Serge, just as an example, was a Rapmusic guy... So was User. They didn’t migrate away from UPN... they took over RM and then came to UPN. Same with all of the old heads that people associate with that board. Aloe, Rudge, Fracture, whomever.

Yeah for the record I didn’t know if those ppl orIginated there or not
It’s just where I first noticed their work For example .. by the time I saw Serge /user .. yourself There had already been really old tournaments at upn archived while they were still active at Rm , bboys Dawg the pic invitationals were my favorite . As a prolific upstart those were always good reading n kind of helped cultivate the way I do pic battles now. Pure clowning . Lmao @User has got to be tired of the fat jokes. Dawg who had that line Only time he goes 0-200 is when you step on the scale Or some shit. My young ass was geeking . Had to be 12-13 reading those

“ I like this site but cmon now “
Bro tbh nc is a more modern version of upn if you think about it Nobody originated here . Most of the original members here have dominated elsewhere . Rbl, wbl what have you . Early to mid 2000s like you say when upn was derelict ( I say that but that’s just an outsiders POV) . Cobwebs in that hoe . But I definitely tip my hat .

UPN was way more niche, though. For about 10 years we had a discussion forum there that was the only forum that had activity. And it was remarkable. We battled, but it was only once in a while.

There was legit a decade where the only thing worthwhile to read battle wise From UPN was the Xmas invitational y’all always had pinned at the top xD
Meanwhile I’m competing in like 7-8 leagues simultaneously lol It’s all good. Definitely wish I woukd of made waves early enough to compete in those .. no doubt For reference . I always considered username a OG .. that guy was your peer . Feel me ? Just different eras we REALLY competed in Took me awhile to even recognize short bar as the way to go

Perfect person to comment on that
Blue you are a shining example of exactly what I’m talking about in regards to our era Knuck is too . So I kinda get the .. uhhh subtle disdain between the two different realms of competition It’s like the mj / Lebron Thing . Kind of . Speaking for myself .. I have a deep appreciation the leagues of old Eh n I say leagues of old but some of us were competing back then too . Shit in 99 I was doing fucking long bar . Cringe. Lmaoo Nobody smiling . Canibus central . Yuk. I literally mentally block out those times. Can’t believe I was fielding verses like that n putting hyphens in my multis HAHA

2003-2004 was the best time for text as far as competition and skill. In my opinion.

Some people say 2009 yet you had to give out a cash prize just to get people to show up for a fucking tournament.

Facts. I liked the discussion more than when upn was poppin wit text.... Honestly most of us on upn by 2006 or 07 wasn't doing text anymore only participating in yearly tournaments and shit..... Upn evolved and mothafuckas said fuck text and was just roasting each other in the discussion and having legitimate conversations. |

Personally, I think the whole scene, or whatever you want to call it, peaked earlier than 2003-04... by that point, some of the main boards had long since died (Sethro’s, Homegrown, Keystyles, ArtofRhyme, etc) and UPN had started to move to being 99% a discussion board. But, I’m also old enough to remember Kno and Deacon from cunninlynguists text battling in March Madnesses in the late 90s. LOL. I’m fucking ancient when it comes to this crap.
