BattleRap.com hit up 413 league rep TD3 for a quick Q&A about the event.
BattleRap.com: What does this event mean to 413?
TD3: This is our fourth Super Bowl event and we have steadily grown it to one of New England's biggest battle events for the last couple years. This one tops all the previous three combined! We haven't worked this hard on any other event. We are extremely proud of the outcome of the card and the pure excitement people have (from all over) for this Saturday night. It means hard work and dedication do pay off.
BR: What does 413 do to set itself apart from other leagues?
TD3: We honestly always try to do something new and innovative. From doing the first 360 degree battle video, to having a nationwide piece featured on us and battle rap on NPR for millions to hear, having rock/metal music in our intros at times, having a free snack table at many of our events, having the new style of flyers from the infamous Ryan Gregory of Famous Effects (an original 413 fan since Day 1) that many others have imitated, being the first league to have a trading card-set for the fans at the event for the match ups. Our event is a huge party of regulars and new fans with zero drama. It's something people look forward to every few months.
BR: What's the match-up to look for on this card?
TD3: Well besides the big ones like Big T vs. Stumbles, the 2-on-2 of DNA & K-Shine vs. E. Farrell & JeFFrey, we have some really dope outsiders coming in (including buzz making up-and-comers such as Bedaffi Green and Lu Cipher) but for our local scene, one of the biggest matches in the history of the 413/Springfield area is finally going down after about a good 10 years of being talked about: Sicarii vs. Blaksmif, both gunning for the top spot out here. Verce versus Flash Da Gator has a lot of people saying that could be Battle Of The Night too. We are actually really excited about all the match-ups, they all make sense, so the fans are going to enjoy!
