Winner takes all.

Hey what's up! I wanted to ask if this year there could be a big cypher after the finals becuase there's hasn't been one in a while and it's way better to finish off the event with everyone doing stuff rather than quickly packing everything up immediately after the finals.
MY T-BA BRO! It's been decades between battles for me, sweety! Great to get the true grass roots Hip Hop vibes back in my bones, Brissy stylee! You mob are holding it down for da nation! BRING IT ALL BACK! Gotta give y'all props for the Bris scene, quality moves, raw talent & representing elements of this grass roots culture in a BIG way! Rest of da country should take notes! IMPRESSIVE! Big big LOVE!
