100 BARS MAGAZINE 004 Dec/Jan 2013-2014 | Page 79

you can’t pick a side when nothing was adding up from each of them. It wasn’t just on Arcane’s end, it was on Caustic and Dizaster’s end too so it didn’t make sense to attack one person and end their career. I also wanted to leave it up to the rappers so what I tried to do was set up a rematch on Vengeance event which was only two months after Blackout 3. So instead of taking a side, I wanted to get them to battle it out. So what was supposed to happen was , the battle would drop on YouTube and the end of it would have a trailer for the rematch. Let’s make a story out of it. It’s one thing battle rap needs. It’s what gets people talking to their friends and makes new fans for battle rap, but when that didn’t work out it was he said versus she said. I knew stuff the public didn’t all know so it’s hard to end someone’s career like that. Arcane already got punished. The whole world hated him so if I came down on him it was pretty much over! Ya know, with me agreeing, it was done and I’ve known him for so long and he’s always been so good. So to see people say “he’s only doing this cause he’s buying bars” that aint’ true! Even if he did, it was only four bars and these guys are writing like 124 bars a battle! So it was a hard situation, but it wasn’t so much it would have affected the outcome of the tournament. I still think the guy did seven battles in a 6 month period against all competition. He did what people wouldn’t by putting himself at the bottom of the payroll to come back up. A lot of battlers on the King of the Dot wouldn’t have done that cause it’s too much of a risk. You would face some good battlers that don’t have a name and if they lose it’s not a good look. Arcane said he’d start at the bottom and come back up and prove he’s good. I see how dedicated he is. So the story with Dizaster and Caustic sounded so fishy. It was set up to make Arcane look a way and he got caught in it. It was a really good job, but it was really hard for me to jump in and we didn’t know what to do, but without 100% proof and it’s no secret rappers work together. It’s tough! It’s not like mixed martial arts where I can give this fighter a drug test and find out! (laughs) Jon Rines: (laughs) Organik: I’m trying to be the logical person looking at everyone’s perspective and it didn’t seem right at the time to lay a punishment. Jon Rines: To help Arcane, since I was one of the one’s going super hard at him when this happened, do you think the bars he came with against Pat Stay helped him overcome some of the criticism? He made it debatable. Organik: A lot of people sleep on him, but he didn’t surprise me! He always comes prepared and takes it that serious. He wants to be the best and he’s one of those guys that if you slip up just a little bit he’s going to jump on it so it didn’t surprise me at all. Jon Rines – Back on the hot seat again (laugh). This has now involved three leagues. This touching shit. From Math Hoffa’s punch to Daylyt’s ball sweat at your event, to Arsonal’s face-mush of Charron at Don’t Flop. Norbes came on record saying you guys should all be in unison and something should happen to these guys. Organik: We actually have it in the contracts now. If they touch each other and go too f
