A. Ward sits down with Knowledge Tha God of HipHopIsReal and makes it clear he is done playing humble when it comes to his place in battle rap.
In this exclusive behind-the-scenes interview, A. Ward breaks down his mindset going forward, saying he is focused on positioning himself on URL to get to major names like Tsu Surf and Murda Mook. Ward speaks on potentially getting John John Da Don “up out of here” on a big stage, battling names like Calicoe, and forcing the culture to stop ignoring the conversation.
A. Ward also gets real about Snake Eyez ahead of their Riot battle, saying Snake has a strong resume because people are willing to battle him — but Ward believes those names take Snake because they feel like they won’t lose. He also says Snake Eyez is an “easy win,” while still giving him credit as a believable rapper with strong moments.
Ward talks T-Top’s event, The Riot, Loyalty 2, Geechi Gotti, his confidence, being tired of taking the high road, and why he feels he is one of the best in the world right now.
Is A. Ward right? Does he need John John, Calicoe, or another major URL name to force Surf or Mook to finally take the battle?
