This is a highly anticipated event that will hopefully put an end to popular speculations. Buddens is about to challenge that old myth of battle/ underground rappers being better than commercial rappers. Personally, I don’t think he has anything to prove because he has shown that he can turn his art into a career…which has been one of the major setbacks of most battle-rappers. And that, to me, is how you win a War. [Just checkout this annotated quote from Cassidy on the TOTAL SLAUGHTER SHOWDOWN TRAILER ☞ "I wouldn't do it. Only way I step in the ring is if it make sense"](http://rapgenius.com/3386506) Well, I guess Buddens is thinking if these Gladiators can’t leap to his stellar world, he'll just have to come down to their Colosseum of Stars! So win or lose, my hat goes off to Joe Budden because I respect him for the effort. In actuality, I think his participation and involvement is just hype to boost the relevancy of Underground Battle-Rap scenes [Stay tuned to Eminem's Shady Films with Watchloud.com](http://rapgenius.com/3386565) as they present a night of "Total Slaughter" live on PPV, featuring Hollow Da Don vs Joe Budden, Loaded Lux vs Murda Mook, and road to the "Total Slaughter Championship" [ᴡʜᴇɴ ᴡᴏʀꝈᴅꜱ C͗͜O̮͌L̯͛L̲̍I̬̊D̬̈́E̡̛ ☚ ANNOTATED](http://rapgenius.com/A3c-collide-joe-budden-hollow-da-don-lyrics)       ### Written by [Scott Daniels](https://blog.a3cfestival.com/list/author/scott-daniels) Topics: [Hollow Da Don](https://blog.a3cfestival.com/list/topic/hollow-da-don), [a3c](https://blog.a3cfestival.com/list/topic/a3c), [News](https://blog.a3cfestival.com/list/topic/news), [DroHHp Zone](https://blog.a3cfestival.com/list/topic/drohhp-zone), [Joe Budden](https://blog.a3cfestival.com/list/topic/joe-budden), [skoRG](https://blog.a3cfestival.com/list/topic/skorg), [RapGenius](https://blog.a3cfestival.com/list/topic/rapgenius), [battle rap](https://blog.a3cfestival.com/list/topic/battle-rap) ### Subscribe to Email Updates ![A3C_15_BADGE_STROKE_BLK@3x](https://blog.a3cfestival.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Logo%202019/A3C_15_BADGE_STROKE_BLK@3x.png?width=350&name=A3C_15_BADGE_STROKE_BLK@3x.png)   ![banner-acid-pro-next-300x300](https://blog.a3cfestival.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Flyers%20-%20Posters/banner-acid-pro-next-300x300.png?width=300&name=banner-acid-pro-next-300x300.png)     ### Featured Posts ### Suggested Posts - A3C - [The Artist Center](https://www.a3cfestival.com/artistcenter) - [The Studio](https://www.a3cfestival.com/studio) - [Creator Complex](https://www.a3cfestival.com/creator-complex) - [Artist Guide](https://www.a3cfestival.com/artist-guide) - [Host Hotel](https://www.ihg.com/hotelindigo/hotels/us/en/find-hotels/hotel/rooms?qDest=230+Peachtree+Street+NE%2C+Atlanta%2C+GA%2C+US&qCiMy=92019&qCiD=8&qCoMy=92019&qCoD=14&qAdlt=1&qChld=0&qRms=1&qRtP=6CBARC&qIta=99801505&qGrpCd=ATC&qSlH=ATLID&qAkamaiCC=US&qSrt=sBR&qBrs=re.ic.in.vn.cp.vx.hi.ex.rs.cv.sb.cw.ma.ul.ki.va&qAAR=6CBARC&qWch=0&qSmP=1&setPMCookies=true&qRad=30&qRdU=mi&srb_u=1&icdv=99801505&__hstc=97734592.ac5da2eda2592925768ef94273ff3219.1498146208812.1561469063428.1561562833685.1852&__hssc=97734592.1.1561575968691&__hsfp=2707452779&hsCtaTracking=2b1f9477-bed8-49ed-9119-47e0922bdf8a%7Cd96ac07d-43a7-4442-9040-c64f5b89250a) - [News](https://blog.a3cfestival.com) - Connect - [App](https://www.a3cfestival.com/app) - [Twitter](http://twitter.com/a3c) - [Facebook](http://www.facebook.com/a3cfestival) - [YouTube](http://www.youtube.com/user/A3CFest) - [Instagram](https://instagram.com/a3cfestival/) - INDEX - [Partnership Opportunities](https://www.a3cfestival.com/partner) - [Submit to Perform](https://www.a3cfestival.com/perform) - [Speaker & Mentor Applications](https://www.a3cfestival.com/speaker-mentor-applications) - [Submit an Event or Show](https://www.a3cfestival.com/showcase-submission) - [Submit a Panel or Session](https://www.a3cfestival.com/conference-submissions) - [Intern/Volunteer](https://www.a3cfestival.com/volunteer) - [Media Request](https://www.a3cfestival.com/media-passes) - [Privacy Policy](https://www.a3cfestival.com/privacy-policy) [Download the A3C Mobile App for ** and **](https://blog.a3cfestival.com/app)[**](https://blog.a3cfestival.com/) ## Are You Coming to the A3C Festival? ### Don't miss Atlanta's biggest Hip-Hop event of the year in downtown Atlanta on October 6-7.
